Daily Dogs – Wednesday, August 7

Richmond: Race 5 (8:25pm)
No. 8 Only Reason

Hard to fault Only Reason stepping out in search of his hat-trick.  

This lightly-raced son of Feral Franky was enormous on return here last week, driving to the front in the late stages to pull clear and win by 3.5 lengths.  

He’ll appreciate another wide box and has enough late speed to really put the heat on the leaders in the run home.  

Richmond: Race 7 (9:05pm)
No. 5 Lady Luella

Lady Luella comes back to compete over 320m with a handful of wins to her name.  

She was strong up on the speed over further two runs back at Gosford, and then bumped into a smart type last start behind Solo Fernado.  

This is a competitive field with plenty of early speed, and she should feature prominently soon after box rise.  

Richmond: Race 9 (9:43pm)
No. 6 Wild Sylvia

Wild Sylvia should be fast into stride coming off a break.  

The lightly-raced two-year-old has missed the money only twice from 11 starts, last seen running second at Wentworth Park in May over the same journey.  

She’s suited having drawn a wider box and will take serious catching fresh.

Richmond: Race 11 (10:23pm)
No. 1 Secrets Revealed

Secrets Revealed just needs to find early running room to back up last week’s impressive two-length win and make it a double.  

The son of Flying Ricciardo made every post a winner up on the speed and is likely to relish the hot tempo again here.  

Providing he steps well, he’ll be fast into stride and just as difficult to run down.
