Race comment
OVERVIEW: On first inspection this FFA contest seems pretty clear cut. Then you look a little closer and new realities emerge. Given his massive talent and the fact he’s hard fit in a race with three resuming runners TRIPLE EIGHT (3) deserves favouritism and rates on top but his gate speed is questionable and if he doesn’t lead at this level in a six-horse field he cannot be a moral. Also, in a field of six he has four realistic rivals. Chief among them may be PERFECT STRIDE (4). Chicago Bull’s little brother has always been a good horse but his recent trial for new mentor Russell Jack was outrageously good, and one suspects he can cause an upset fresh. The same can be said for TORRID SAINT (1) who is drawn to perfection for his style and OUT TO PLAY (2) who is all quality but also resuming from a break. Of the established stars BOOTS ELECTRIC (5) may be the one worth risking from his alley after trialling well behind his stablemate at Shep. EARLY SPEED: 1,2,4 + 3,5 RATINGS: 3/ 4/ 1/ 2/ 5/ 6

Race comment
OVERVIEW: On first inspection this FFA contest seems pretty clear cut. Then you look a little closer and new realities emerge. Given his massive talent and the fact he’s hard fit in a race with three resuming runners TRIPLE EIGHT (3) deserves favouritism and rates on top but his gate speed is questionable and if he doesn’t lead at this level in a six-horse field he cannot be a moral. Also, in a field of six he has four realistic rivals. Chief among them may be PERFECT STRIDE (4). Chicago Bull’s little brother has always been a good horse but his recent trial for new mentor Russell Jack was outrageously good, and one suspects he can cause an upset fresh. The same can be said for TORRID SAINT (1) who is drawn to perfection for his style and OUT TO PLAY (2) who is all quality but also resuming from a break. Of the established stars BOOTS ELECTRIC (5) may be the one worth risking from his alley after trialling well behind his stablemate at Shep. EARLY SPEED: 1,2,4 + 3,5 RATINGS: 3/ 4/ 1/ 2/ 5/ 6
