OVERVIEW: BLITZERN (8) is the class runner of the field and will prove hard to beat but the barrier is tricky as SOFALA (1) will be looking to find a forward position but is no guarantee of holding the lead from the pole position. BLITZERN (8) won at Metropolitan level prior to contesting the Winter Championship series, where third in a heat and sixth in the Final. SOFALA (1) was resuming since May when he settled three back on the markers and was held up badly for a run at his latest unlucky fourth behind Keayang Kamikaze. He is a strong pacer and should go well, particularly if he can hold the inside advantage. ALLSHOOKUP (10) got into trouble at the start and finished off determinedly when a big third behind Celestial Gossip at Kilmore last outing. He was runner up behind La Captain in the Metropolitan Pace Final in May and he should run a big race again, despite the draw. THE CHANCER (5) settled three back on the markers and took some time to hit top gear but finished off best to get the prize at Cranbourne last outing. He is worth thought along with BLISSFULL STRIDE (3), MONSIEUR DELACOUR (4) and HUGO ROCKS (6). EARLY SPEED: 1 (possible leader), 2,3,4,6 RATINGS: 8/ 1/ 5,10/ 3,4,6/ 2,9

Race comment
OVERVIEW: BLITZERN (8) is the class runner of the field and will prove hard to beat but the barrier is tricky as SOFALA (1) will be looking to find a forward position but is no guarantee of holding the lead from the pole position. BLITZERN (8) won at Metropolitan level prior to contesting the Winter Championship series, where third in a heat and sixth in the Final. SOFALA (1) was resuming since May when he settled three back on the markers and was held up badly for a run at his latest unlucky fourth behind Keayang Kamikaze. He is a strong pacer and should go well, particularly if he can hold the inside advantage. ALLSHOOKUP (10) got into trouble at the start and finished off determinedly when a big third behind Celestial Gossip at Kilmore last outing. He was runner up behind La Captain in the Metropolitan Pace Final in May and he should run a big race again, despite the draw. THE CHANCER (5) settled three back on the markers and took some time to hit top gear but finished off best to get the prize at Cranbourne last outing. He is worth thought along with BLISSFULL STRIDE (3), MONSIEUR DELACOUR (4) and HUGO ROCKS (6). EARLY SPEED: 1 (possible leader), 2,3,4,6 RATINGS: 8/ 1/ 5,10/ 3,4,6/ 2,9

He is a strong pacer and should go well, particularly if he can hold the inside advantage. ALLSHOOKUP (10) got into trouble at the start and finished off determinedly when a big third behind Celestial Gossip at Kilmore last outing. He was runner up behind La Captain in the Metropolitan Pace Final in May and he should run a big race again, despite the draw. THE CHANCER (5) settled three back on the markers and took some time to hit top gear but finished off best to get the prize at Cranbourne last outing. He is worth thought along with BLISSFULL STRIDE (3), MONSIEUR DELACOUR (4) and HUGO ROCKS (6). EARLY SPEED: 1 (possible leader), 2,3,4,6 RATINGS: 8/ 1/ 5,10/ 3,4,6/ 2,9
