Top fancy is Warning Tune although 2100m as far as this fellow likes. Interestingly this stallion won his first race at Albany.

Truculent a former Victorian, starting to find form, next best.

Taxa unlucky last start 2nd after winning 4 in a row could be the surprise packet.

Topweight Heaps Of Class although drawn wide & unknown past 1800m has won 7 from 20 including 5 at Albany.

Albany today - Sunday 23rd Mar.

R2: Expect Special Sanction to improve on first-up effort. Kruz well weighted. Joshua's Star & Truck Talk next best.

R4: Nice race, many chances. Go for value with Floral Freedom, just ahead of Deek, Corporate Lady & Triple Shot.

R5: Like Admiral Black. Popular Prince hard to beat. Other chances include Aparkala, New Bow & Almond Crusher.

R6: Like Catwalk Princess. Devil's Speed & Hot Harmony hard to beat. Retlaw could be placed at good odds.

R7: Taxa to handle the class rise. Warning Tune hard to beat. Mirror Moon & Sir Donald for value.

R8: Chucka Khan well placed. Hopeland Greene & Kitty Kite main dangers. Also include Corporate Diamond.

Out in front - you make your own luck!

A few winners and places there El Gordo, including Kitty Kite - $29.40 / $4.70. Retlaw just beaten & Admiral Black looked like he threw the race away by running out sharply in the straight. :wink:

Nice Work El gordo, 1st and 2nd in race 8 at very good odds. Hope you had a collect.

Cheers,
Cosmo.

Nice win by Kyoshi in the Albany Cup on Sunday. Obviously relishes the recent step up distances. Could now go on with it in the city.

Winner of the Norseman Cup at his previous start, but the start prior was the real pointer to his chance on Sunday. :wink:

Ran a close 2nd to the handy Miller's Fancy in the Esperance Cup over 2200m, finishing in front of multiple city winner Mr Debernals - giving that horse 2.4kgs. Mr Debernals ran a nice 4th to Malwalkie at Ascot on Saturday starting equal favourite.
