The four-year-old mare has been a model of consistency for Hogan but is looking for a change of luck to return to the winner's list.

Roll On The Beach has finished no further back than fifth at her past six starts and is drawn gate one in the D.T.D Engineering NR 45 Pace (1770m).

The mare has been luckless a few times of late when getting buried away on the pegs and Hogan hinted he may look to lead at Albury in a bid to leave nothing to chance.

"That's definitely a big chance (Friday) night," Hogan said.

"I'll play it by ear. She was pretty unlucky at Leeton (two starts ago) when she got held up and didn't have much luck last start (at Albury)."

Roll On The Beach has won two of her 33 starts, but has picked up a further five minor placings along the way, helping her to $18,000 in earnings.

Hogan has plenty of time for the Roll With Joe mare.

"She's a nice consistent filly," he said.

"Even the days when she's run six, seven, eight, nine, 10, she's kept up with the better fillies and horses.

"She's run a lot of places and never runs a bad race. She's no star but she's consistent."

Hogan has one other drive on the eight-race card, Reincarnate for Colin McLachlan in the C&C Printing NR53 Pace (2170m).
