3Doc March
Doc March presents as the most likely winner based on his last start victory over this exact distance at Wagga. His distance record of 2 wins from 3 starts at 2000m is outstanding, and he's proven at Albury with a win and third from 4 starts. While Ella Bent is an apprentice, the horse's form and suitability override jockey concerns.
2nd pick2nd
8Mr Avery
Mr Avery is an improving 3-year-old who won his last start at this track and is second up from a spell. His first up record of 1-0-0 suggests he can handle fresh conditions, and the McDougall/Scott combination has a solid strike rate. The significant class rise from Maiden to BM58 is a concern, but his rapid improvement and track familiarity make him a genuine threat.
3rd pickWon
6Hells Spirit
Hells Spirit has an outstanding record at this track and distance with a win and third from just 2 attempts. His overall Albury record of 2 wins from 8 starts is excellent, and the Button/Davison combination is proven. The class rise from Class 1 to BM58 is manageable for a progressive 3-year-old, and his recent third in BM66 company suggests he can handle this level.
Value pick5th
12Just Like Liam
Just Like Liam offers value based on his excellent track record and recent second placing at this exact track and distance. His Albury record of 2 wins and 4 placings from 15 starts shows he handles the track well, and the significant weight relief to 55kg is a positive.
