Race comment
OVERVIEW: It’s difficult to fathom, even in one’s wildest imagination, how anyone could assemble a more mind-bending seven-horse race than this 78 to 87-rated sprint we’re charged with the task of assessing. For absolute talent, the two most brilliant pacers engaged here are STRUVE (4) and NERANO (7). And to complicate issues, both are fresh from breaks. Fortunately, both have trialled well for their returns with NERANO (7) tearing the clock asunder late at Leeton on June 25 and STRUVE (4) phoning-in a fundamental preliminary triumph at Ballart on June 7. They both also fly first-up with STRUVE (4) winning 5 of his 9 fresh efforts and NERANO (7) prevailing in 2 of 3 first-up runs. Part of the key to both horses’ winning hopes tonight is MIGHTY FLYING ART (1). Aside from his last-start failure, he’s been a serious improver for team Douglas. With that in record, if he’s chased off the gate – and it’s likely he will be – there’s every hope he’ll over-race in transit. The tempo that scenario would create endlessly aids both STRUVE (4) who has gate speed but probably won’t use it fresh, and NERANO (7) who has little option but to settle well back – likely last – in transit. Given his greater reliability NERANO (7) narrowly gets the nod from STRUVE (4) but, realistically, at least three of the remaining runners can also prevail with perfect fortune. Heading that list – particularly from a value perspective - is MAJOR MANBAR (3) who is racing as well as anything else here and finally a somewhat suitable gate, while RICK REILLY (6) is competing in the zone and SANDAY (5) should be improved by one run back from a break. EARLY SPEED: 1 (Potential Leader) + 3?,4?,5? RATINGS: 7/ 4/ 3/ 6/ 5/ 1/ 2

Race comment
OVERVIEW: It’s difficult to fathom, even in one’s wildest imagination, how anyone could assemble a more mind-bending seven-horse race than this 78 to 87-rated sprint we’re charged with the task of assessing. For absolute talent, the two most brilliant pacers engaged here are STRUVE (4) and NERANO (7). And to complicate issues, both are fresh from breaks. Fortunately, both have trialled well for their returns with NERANO (7) tearing the clock asunder late at Leeton on June 25 and STRUVE (4) phoning-in a fundamental preliminary triumph at Ballart on June 7. They both also fly first-up with STRUVE (4) winning 5 of his 9 fresh efforts and NERANO (7) prevailing in 2 of 3 first-up runs. Part of the key to both horses’ winning hopes tonight is MIGHTY FLYING ART (1). Aside from his last-start failure, he’s been a serious improver for team Douglas. With that in record, if he’s chased off the gate – and it’s likely he will be – there’s every hope he’ll over-race in transit. The tempo that scenario would create endlessly aids both STRUVE (4) who has gate speed but probably won’t use it fresh, and NERANO (7) who has little option but to settle well back – likely last – in transit. Given his greater reliability NERANO (7) narrowly gets the nod from STRUVE (4) but, realistically, at least three of the remaining runners can also prevail with perfect fortune. Heading that list – particularly from a value perspective - is MAJOR MANBAR (3) who is racing as well as anything else here and finally a somewhat suitable gate, while RICK REILLY (6) is competing in the zone and SANDAY (5) should be improved by one run back from a break. EARLY SPEED: 1 (Potential Leader) + 3?,4?,5? RATINGS: 7/ 4/ 3/ 6/ 5/ 1/ 2

Race comment
OVERVIEW: It’s difficult to fathom, even in one’s wildest imagination, how anyone could assemble a more mind-bending seven-horse race than this 78 to 87-rated sprint we’re charged with the task of assessing. For absolute talent, the two most brilliant pacers engaged here are STRUVE (4) and NERANO (7). And to complicate issues, both are fresh from breaks. Fortunately, both have trialled well for their returns with NERANO (7) tearing the clock asunder late at Leeton on June 25 and STRUVE (4) phoning-in a fundamental preliminary triumph at Ballart on June 7. They both also fly first-up with STRUVE (4) winning 5 of his 9 fresh efforts and NERANO (7) prevailing in 2 of 3 first-up runs. Part of the key to both horses’ winning hopes tonight is MIGHTY FLYING ART (1). Aside from his last-start failure, he’s been a serious improver for team Douglas. With that in record, if he’s chased off the gate – and it’s likely he will be – there’s every hope he’ll over-race in transit. The tempo that scenario would create endlessly aids both STRUVE (4) who has gate speed but probably won’t use it fresh, and NERANO (7) who has little option but to settle well back – likely last – in transit. Given his greater reliability NERANO (7) narrowly gets the nod from STRUVE (4) but, realistically, at least three of the remaining runners can also prevail with perfect fortune. Heading that list – particularly from a value perspective - is MAJOR MANBAR (3) who is racing as well as anything else here and finally a somewhat suitable gate, while RICK REILLY (6) is competing in the zone and SANDAY (5) should be improved by one run back from a break. EARLY SPEED: 1 (Potential Leader) + 3?,4?,5? RATINGS: 7/ 4/ 3/ 6/ 5/ 1/ 2
