Albury tips and results

Our price $4.00 · SP $4.20 · Blaike Mc Dougall

Dee Dee Express showed genuine ability early in her prep with placings on soft, then was outclassed at Rosehill. The lengthy spell is a concern but the barrier and class drop are strong positives. If she returns near her best she can lead or sit outside the leader and prove hard to run down.

Our price $12.00 · SP $26.00 · Pierre Boudvillain

She handles soft ground and draws perfectly in barrier 3 under a track‑specialist jockey.

Our price $6.00 · SP $6.00 · Brittany Button

Brittany Button has a good record with this trainer. Barrier 4 is ideal for a forward position.

Our price $8.00 · SP $5.00 · Pierre Boudvillain

She maps favourably from barrier 2 and should be able to settle handy. The step to Soft 7 is a query, but she has the speed to be competitive.

Our price $15.00 · SP $51.00 · Cassidy Hill

Four Esses produced a much-improved effort last start, finishing second at Leeton. She gets in light at 54kg with the claim and should be able to hold a forward position.

Our price $4.50 · SP $5.50 · Billy Owen

Mr Magnificence profiles as the strongest form runner. His first-up second at Moruya was excellent, and Billy Owen retains the ride. The Soft 7 is a minor query but he handled soft ground at Canberra. Maps ideally just off the speed.

Meka Vibe is the consistent maiden who is always around the mark. He ran third at Corowa last start and drops to 55kg with a nice barrier. The major concern is his soft track record (0 placings from 6 starts), which makes him vulnerable on a Soft 7.

Our price $5.00 · SP $6.00 · Jeff Penza

Doc March brings strong consistency and a recent BM66 victory at Wagga, but the top weight of 62.5kg and a poor record on soft ground (0-2-0 from 7 starts) are serious concerns. He may place but winning chances look slim on this surface.

Our price $6.00 · SP $11.00 · Sarah McDonough

Star Blazer returns to his best track and distance after a convincing win at Corowa. His Albury record (2 wins from 5) and ability on soft ground give him a clear edge. Despite barrier 10, he has the early speed to hold a forward position and should control the race if he finds the front. The fast tempo may work in his favour as he's proven he can sustain a gallop.

Our price $7.00 · SP $10.00 · Coriah Keatings

However, barrier 13 at Albury is a major concern, as winners overwhelmingly come from the first half of the field. She will need an exceptional ride or a very strong tempo to overcome the draw.

Our price $10.00 · SP $15.00 · Carly Frater

Philadelphia Storm is a proven Albury performer who maps perfectly from barrier 2. He has placed twice at this track and distance and goes well on rain-affected ground. The step back to Albury and the inside draw should see him improve significantly.

Our price $15.00 · SP $31.00 · Brendan Ward

From barrier 3 with only 55kg she can settle in the first six and finish off strongly.

Our price $5.50 · SP $5.00 · Jason Lyon

She steps up in class but carries only 57.5kg and has the advantage of Jason Lyon who rides Albury well. The form is clearly improving and she maps to get a nice run just off the speed. Respect each-way threat.

Our price $10.00 · SP $18.00 · Milos Bunjevac

I'm Airborne comes off a close second at Wodonga and has a good record at Albury including a win on heavy ground.
