OVERVIEW: SPORT MENTAL (1) former Kiwi mare joining the astute and experienced Colin Godden stable. Drawn well and expect a strong showing at her first Australian start. TOPHUT JOHNY (3) gave a great sight against some smart horses last start and can run well again here. DEALMAKER (4) great training effort to win first up after a long spell. Smart horse and is one of the main chances again. BETTER DAY (2) good effort to win two starts ago. Freshened up since his last unplaced run. Drawn well and must be respected. ROCKNROLL CRUISER (5) consistent pacer that rarely runs a poor race. Can run well again. WHAT A PLEASURE (8) and SOME CHANGE (9) are both in good form and get good trailing draws.

Race comment
OVERVIEW: SPORT MENTAL (1) former Kiwi mare joining the astute and experienced Colin Godden stable. Drawn well and expect a strong showing at her first Australian start. TOPHUT JOHNY (3) gave a great sight against some smart horses last start and can run well again here. DEALMAKER (4) great training effort to win first up after a long spell. Smart horse and is one of the main chances again. BETTER DAY (2) good effort to win two starts ago. Freshened up since his last unplaced run. Drawn well and must be respected. ROCKNROLL CRUISER (5) consistent pacer that rarely runs a poor race. Can run well again. WHAT A PLEASURE (8) and SOME CHANGE (9) are both in good form and get good trailing draws. Both are not out of this. EARLY SPEED: 1,2,3,4 RATINGS: 1/ 3/ 4/ 2/ 5/ 9

OVERVIEW: SPORT MENTAL (1) former Kiwi mare joining the astute and experienced Colin Godden stable. Drawn well and expect a strong showing at her first Australian start. TOPHUT JOHNY (3) gave a great sight against some smart horses last start and can run well again here. DEALMAKER (4) great training effort to win first up after a long spell. Smart horse and is one of the main chances again. BETTER DAY (2) good effort to win two starts ago. Freshened up since his last unplaced run. Drawn well and must be respected. ROCKNROLL CRUISER (5) consistent pacer that rarely runs a poor race. Can run well again. WHAT A PLEASURE (8) and SOME CHANGE (9) are both in good form and get good trailing draws. Both are not out of this. EARLY SPEED: 1,2,3,4 RATINGS: 1/ 3/ 4/ 2/ 5/ 9

Race comment
OVERVIEW: SPORT MENTAL (1) former Kiwi mare joining the astute and experienced Colin Godden stable. Drawn well and expect a strong showing at her first Australian start. TOPHUT JOHNY (3) gave a great sight against some smart horses last start and can run well again here. DEALMAKER (4) great training effort to win first up after a long spell. Smart horse and is one of the main chances again. BETTER DAY (2) good effort to win two starts ago. Freshened up since his last unplaced run. Drawn well and must be respected. ROCKNROLL CRUISER (5) consistent pacer that rarely runs a poor race. Can run well again. WHAT A PLEASURE (8) and SOME CHANGE (9) are both in good form and get good trailing draws. Both are not out of this. EARLY SPEED: 1,2,3,4 RATINGS: 1/ 3/ 4/ 2/ 5/ 9
