thedogs - Richmond 16 April 2021 Race 10

Impossible to look past STRAIGHT SHIFT (5). He toyed with a handy lot here Apr 9 in a record breaking 18.23 and now boasts 26 wins from just 41 lifetime outings. GENERAL CORTEZ (4) battled solidly when 2nd to Straight Shift here Apr 9 and the quinella role looks best again while it’s between GOOD ODDS REWARD (2) and MEEKA'S BOY BILL (1) for third.
