Race comment
OVERVIEW: This analyst is happy to concede he missed ONA HIGHWAY TO HELL (1) a fortnight back when backed to the exclusion and too fast up the lane. He won’t be missing again. In all honesty that polemarker does face some challenges here up in grade (even if the NR says otherwise) with some pretty smart horses off the second row, but he thrives on soft trips and can rip past these if fortune plays in his favour. The elephant in the room is clearly JILLIBY NITRO (12). Nobody doubts he’s a very good horse – he’s placed in 16 of 17starts usually at the highest level – or that he’s dropping monumentally in grade. The question is whether he’s suited under these conditions and can do the heavy labour that may be required of him to win. Despite those doubts he’s second pick her with chances also going to MONGIANA (11) who was almost going to win a better race than this last start before locking wheels, STINGRAY TARA (2) who looks the likely leader and WOULD YOU MIND (8) whose flying but is drawn for another three-pole journey.

Race comment
OVERVIEW: This analyst is happy to concede he missed ONA HIGHWAY TO HELL (1) a fortnight back when backed to the exclusion and too fast up the lane. He won’t be missing again. In all honesty that polemarker does face some challenges here up in grade (even if the NR says otherwise) with some pretty smart horses off the second row, but he thrives on soft trips and can rip past these if fortune plays in his favour. The elephant in the room is clearly JILLIBY NITRO (12). Nobody doubts he’s a very good horse – he’s placed in 16 of 17starts usually at the highest level – or that he’s dropping monumentally in grade. The question is whether he’s suited under these conditions and can do the heavy labour that may be required of him to win. Despite those doubts he’s second pick her with chances also going to MONGIANA (11) who was almost going to win a better race than this last start before locking wheels, STINGRAY TARA (2) who looks the likely leader and WOULD YOU MIND (8) whose flying but is drawn for another three-pole journey. EARLY SPEED: 2 (Potential Leader) + 1,4,7 RATINGS: 1/ 12/ 11/ 2/ 8/ 7/ 10/ 13/ 4/ 9/ 5/ 6

Race comment
OVERVIEW: This analyst is happy to concede he missed ONA HIGHWAY TO HELL (1) a fortnight back when backed to the exclusion and too fast up the lane. He won’t be missing again. In all honesty that polemarker does face some challenges here up in grade (even if the NR says otherwise) with some pretty smart horses off the second row, but he thrives on soft trips and can rip past these if fortune plays in his favour. The elephant in the room is clearly JILLIBY NITRO (12). Nobody doubts he’s a very good horse – he’s placed in 16 of 17starts usually at the highest level – or that he’s dropping monumentally in grade. The question is whether he’s suited under these conditions and can do the heavy labour that may be required of him to win. Despite those doubts he’s second pick her with chances also going to MONGIANA (11) who was almost going to win a better race than this last start before locking wheels, STINGRAY TARA (2) who looks the likely leader and WOULD YOU MIND (8) whose flying but is drawn for another three-pole journey. EARLY SPEED: 2 (Potential Leader) + 1,4,7 RATINGS: 1/ 12/ 11/ 2/ 8/ 7/ 10/ 13/ 4/ 9/ 5/ 6

Race comment
OVERVIEW: This analyst is happy to concede he missed ONA HIGHWAY TO HELL (1) a fortnight back when backed to the exclusion and too fast up the lane. He won’t be missing again. In all honesty that polemarker does face some challenges here up in grade (even if the NR says otherwise) with some pretty smart horses off the second row, but he thrives on soft trips and can rip past these if fortune plays in his favour. The elephant in the room is clearly JILLIBY NITRO (12). Nobody doubts he’s a very good horse – he’s placed in 16 of 17starts usually at the highest level – or that he’s dropping monumentally in grade. The question is whether he’s suited under these conditions and can do the heavy labour that may be required of him to win. Despite those doubts he’s second pick her with chances also going to MONGIANA (11) who was almost going to win a better race than this last start before locking wheels, STINGRAY TARA (2) who looks the likely leader and WOULD YOU MIND (8) whose flying but is drawn for another three-pole journey. EARLY SPEED: 2 (Potential Leader) + 1,4,7 RATINGS: 1/ 12/ 11/ 2/ 8/ 7/ 10/ 13/ 4/ 9/ 5/ 6
