Albury – Good 4
R1 – 1400m Johnsons Mme Country Boosted Maiden Hcp
A competitive maiden to open the card with several runners coming through similar form lines. Oubaitori resumes off a strong Orange effort and maps to get every chance on speed, while Encampment and Whoopi Do both hit the line strongly at Sapphire Coast and look ready to win. Super Nic can improve sharply from the softer draw after a forgive run at Wagga.
Selections

5. Encampment — $4.20
4. Whoopi Do — $5.00
12. Super Nic — $7.00
R2 – 1175m Vehicle & Equipment Finance Maiden Plate
This maiden lacks depth and looks a nice opportunity for one of the leading chances to break through. Ponte Arcobaleno resumes with a soft draw and solid fresh form, while Gold Decree has trialled well ahead of return.

4. Cooranga — $4.80
6. Fire Chat — $4.80

R4 – 1175m Meredith Joinery Maiden Plate
Angel Please was narrowly beaten here last start and gets another ideal setup to go one better. Bomen Babe can bounce back from a disappointing Wagga run, while Fighting Fox produced a strong closing effort last time out. Apple Eyes has early speed and shouldn’t be overlooked.

- Fighting Fox — $10.00
- Apple Eyes — $7.50
R5 – 1000m Martins Travel Albury Hcp (C1)

4. Arthur The Great — $3.40
8. Zethus — $10.00
2. Rocket Tiger — $21.00
