Race comment
OVERVIEW: SILKY SMOOTH EXCUSE (8) will be relying on TALEGGIO (1) holding a forward position at the start but she appears to be well placed against this field and is worth an investment. TALEGGIO (1) tried to sustain a long run when third at Mildura prior to a fifth at Ballarat, where he endured a wide trip. He is perfectly drawn for this assignment and enjoys racing over the sprint distance so he warrants consideration. CALYPSO MISTRESS (4) held the lead from the pole position but raced very fiercely and had excuses at her latest unplaced performance. She was runner up after trailing the leader at Ballarat on October 28 and she should give a forward showing in this event. ROCKS CAN ROLL (3) was caught out three horses wide in the early stages and eventually got up without cover when a strong second behind Feisty Phoebe at Echuca. He raced on the outside of the leader when he scored at Yarra Valley in November and he will be looking for a forward position again. ARISTOCRAT CHESTER (9) has had no luck at all since resuming from a break and rates as a value chance. EARLY SPEED: 1 (likely leader), 3,4,5 RATINGS: 8/ 1,4/ 3/ 9/ 2

Race comment
OVERVIEW: SILKY SMOOTH EXCUSE (8) will be relying on TALEGGIO (1) holding a forward position at the start but she appears to be well placed against this field and is worth an investment. TALEGGIO (1) tried to sustain a long run when third at Mildura prior to a fifth at Ballarat, where he endured a wide trip. He is perfectly drawn for this assignment and enjoys racing over the sprint distance so he warrants consideration. CALYPSO MISTRESS (4) held the lead from the pole position but raced very fiercely and had excuses at her latest unplaced performance. She was runner up after trailing the leader at Ballarat on October 28 and she should give a forward showing in this event. ROCKS CAN ROLL (3) was caught out three horses wide in the early stages and eventually got up without cover when a strong second behind Feisty Phoebe at Echuca. He raced on the outside of the leader when he scored at Yarra Valley in November and he will be looking for a forward position again. ARISTOCRAT CHESTER (9) has had no luck at all since resuming from a break and rates as a value chance. EARLY SPEED: 1 (likely leader), 3,4,5 RATINGS: 8/ 1,4/ 3/ 9/ 2

OVERVIEW: SILKY SMOOTH EXCUSE (8) will be relying on TALEGGIO (1) holding a forward position at the start but she appears to be well placed against this field and is worth an investment. TALEGGIO (1) tried to sustain a long run when third at Mildura prior to a fifth at Ballarat, where he endured a wide trip. He is perfectly drawn for this assignment and enjoys racing over the sprint distance so he warrants consideration. CALYPSO MISTRESS (4) held the lead from the pole position but raced very fiercely and had excuses at her latest unplaced performance. She was runner up after trailing the leader at Ballarat on October 28 and she should give a forward showing in this event. ROCKS CAN ROLL (3) was caught out three horses wide in the early stages and eventually got up without cover when a strong second behind Feisty Phoebe at Echuca. He raced on the outside of the leader when he scored at Yarra Valley in November and he will be looking for a forward position again. ARISTOCRAT CHESTER (9) has had no luck at all since resuming from a break and rates as a value chance. EARLY SPEED: 1 (likely leader), 3,4,5 RATINGS: 8/ 1,4/ 3/ 9/ 2
