Team Teal ambassador Ellen Bartley will be hoping to strike at Albury’s Carnival of Cups meeting tonight.
Bartley has representation in two of the main features including her in-form gelding Nerano in the Albury Pacers Cup.
Nerano will be driven by Bartley’s partner Blake Jones, one of the leading drivers in the Riverina.
Jones has driven the pacer in his nine Australian starts that yields seven wins and two second-placings.
They will have to take on the likes of Victorian visitor One Two Many for trainer Russell Jack.
Drawn in barrier one, the five-time winner is one of the main fancies along with fellow Victorian Brallos Pass.
Top metropolitan conditioner Jason Grimson also has Egodan in the event.
The Derby (race six) is another feature with strong interstate representation. Bartley has one of two of the local hopes in the race, All Da Rage.

Newcastle best bet
Race 6: Please Shuddup (5)
