Albury Race Club is set to host back-to-back meetings this week, starting with a competitive seven-race program for Albury Mile (1600m) Day. The rail has been placed in the true position throughout the entire circuit, and with some minor showers expected in the lead-up, a Soft 5 surface should be the expectation for participants. All the action is scheduled to get underway at 1:35pm AEDT.
Albury Mile Top Tip: Cliff House
Cliff House appears perfectly placed second-up in the campaign as he heads towards the $50,000 Albury Mile. The son of Starcraft was sensational through the wire at this course on February 18, simply finding the 1400m too sharp to produce his best. He gets much more suitable conditions on Thursday afternoon, where the sting out of the ground will do wonders for his chances. He is a well-experienced five-year-old now, and with the pace on in this event, watch for Cliff House to be exploding down the centre of the course with Danny Beasley in the saddle.

Best Bet at Albury: Duchy Of Cornwall
Duchy Of Cornwall has found the minor money in his last five starts, and although he may be a frustrating commodity for punters, it is worth keeping faith in this Class 1 contest. He has a nasty habit of getting too far back in his races, which occurred once again in his most recent effort at Wagga on March 14, before mounting a late charge to find another place cheque for connections. He is drawn to hold a much closer position from stall two on Thursday, and with a bit of luck when the whips are cracking, Duchy Of Cornwall can finally finish best.

Next Best at Albury: County Kilkenny
County Kilkenny was crowded for room at a crucial stage at Wagga on March 5 and showed plenty of class to only go down by a half-length. The son of Fast Company was first-up after a 17-week spell on that occasion, and the four-year-old gelding should appreciate the soft conditions for his second-up assault. Danny Beasley retains the ride after taking the reins on return, and with barrier five to help find a soft run in transit, County Kilkenny should be right in this Class 1 contest.
