Race comment
OVERVIEW: CAN’T TOP THIS (2) is a smart 4yo pacer and is building up a good strike rate. He overcame a tough trip and was still strong at the finish when he defeated Azza at Melton last week. He is stepping up in class for this assignment but he should prove hard to beat again. EXPLICIT CASTLE (1) is a bold front running pacer that races best when he is able to lead over the sprint journey so he has the draw and the distance to suit him here. He pushed forward to race without cover when he scored in a mile rate of 1.54.8 at Melton last outing so he should take beating from the pole position. FLYING JO (3) has won four of her six starts for the season and looms as one of the leading chances again. She has two of the main chances drawn on her inside but she is versatile and was able to grind out a victory last time out. MAJOR ASSASSIN (8) has been unplaced at his two runs back from a spell but he is drawn to trail behind the likely leader so he rates as a value hope. MAJOR MANBAR (10) struck trouble last time and has a good record when competing over the sprint distance so he is worth another chance. EARLY SPEED: 1 (likely leader), 2,3,4,6,7 RATINGS: 2/ 1,3/ 8/ 7,10/ 9/ 6,11

Race comment
OVERVIEW: CAN’T TOP THIS (2) is a smart 4yo pacer and is building up a good strike rate. He overcame a tough trip and was still strong at the finish when he defeated Azza at Melton last week. He is stepping up in class for this assignment but he should prove hard to beat again. EXPLICIT CASTLE (1) is a bold front running pacer that races best when he is able to lead over the sprint journey so he has the draw and the distance to suit him here. He pushed forward to race without cover when he scored in a mile rate of 1.54.8 at Melton last outing so he should take beating from the pole position. FLYING JO (3) has won four of her six starts for the season and looms as one of the leading chances again. She has two of the main chances drawn on her inside but she is versatile and was able to grind out a victory last time out. MAJOR ASSASSIN (8) has been unplaced at his two runs back from a spell but he is drawn to trail behind the likely leader so he rates as a value hope. MAJOR MANBAR (10) struck trouble last time and has a good record when competing over the sprint distance so he is worth another chance. EARLY SPEED: 1 (likely leader), 2,3,4,6,7 RATINGS: 2/ 1,3/ 8/ 7,10/ 9/ 6,11

Race comment
OVERVIEW: CAN’T TOP THIS (2) is a smart 4yo pacer and is building up a good strike rate. He overcame a tough trip and was still strong at the finish when he defeated Azza at Melton last week. He is stepping up in class for this assignment but he should prove hard to beat again. EXPLICIT CASTLE (1) is a bold front running pacer that races best when he is able to lead over the sprint journey so he has the draw and the distance to suit him here. He pushed forward to race without cover when he scored in a mile rate of 1.54.8 at Melton last outing so he should take beating from the pole position. FLYING JO (3) has won four of her six starts for the season and looms as one of the leading chances again. She has two of the main chances drawn on her inside but she is versatile and was able to grind out a victory last time out. MAJOR ASSASSIN (8) has been unplaced at his two runs back from a spell but he is drawn to trail behind the likely leader so he rates as a value hope. MAJOR MANBAR (10) struck trouble last time and has a good record when competing over the sprint distance so he is worth another chance. EARLY SPEED: 1 (likely leader), 2,3,4,6,7 RATINGS: 2/ 1,3/ 8/ 7,10/ 9/ 6,11

Race comment
OVERVIEW: CAN’T TOP THIS (2) is a smart 4yo pacer and is building up a good strike rate. He overcame a tough trip and was still strong at the finish when he defeated Azza at Melton last week. He is stepping up in class for this assignment but he should prove hard to beat again. EXPLICIT CASTLE (1) is a bold front running pacer that races best when he is able to lead over the sprint journey so he has the draw and the distance to suit him here. He pushed forward to race without cover when he scored in a mile rate of 1.54.8 at Melton last outing so he should take beating from the pole position. FLYING JO (3) has won four of her six starts for the season and looms as one of the leading chances again. She has two of the main chances drawn on her inside but she is versatile and was able to grind out a victory last time out. MAJOR ASSASSIN (8) has been unplaced at his two runs back from a spell but he is drawn to trail behind the likely leader so he rates as a value hope. MAJOR MANBAR (10) struck trouble last time and has a good record when competing over the sprint distance so he is worth another chance. EARLY SPEED: 1 (likely leader), 2,3,4,6,7 RATINGS: 2/ 1,3/ 8/ 7,10/ 9/ 6,11
