OVERVIEW: The Burning Question (good show that, check out thetrots.com.au socials for more) in this relatively fierce female-only contest is whether KEKOA (2) intends to park stablemate POLLY PUT KETTLEON (6) in transit. Step one in that process, of course, is KEKOA (2) crossing ORBIE (1) in the early stages. While not guaranteed, that scenario is overwhelmingly likely; and if it materialises as expected, thee should come a time where POLLY PUT KETTLEON (6) presses forward and probably asks the question. If that query garners a positive response then POLLY PUT KETTLEON (6) almost certainly prevails. If not, she still rates slightly clear but KEKOA (2) who was massive in semi-final and final of the Vicbred Super series for 4YO mares also comes very sharply into play. As does ROCKINGWITHSIERRA (5). The fact she hasn’t raced for four weeks and was scratched from a recent assignment is obviously worrying, but at her best ROCKINGWITHSIERRA (5) is actually superior to these and there was stacks to like about her last start performance. It’s tough to see anything else finishing first here, though ORBIE (1) is pretty much always in top form, and she’ll have few excuses from her perfect polemarking draw.

Race comment
OVERVIEW: The Burning Question (good show that, check out thetrots.com.au socials for more) in this relatively fierce female-only contest is whether KEKOA (2) intends to park stablemate POLLY PUT KETTLEON (6) in transit. Step one in that process, of course, is KEKOA (2) crossing ORBIE (1) in the early stages. While not guaranteed, that scenario is overwhelmingly likely; and if it materialises as expected, thee should come a time where POLLY PUT KETTLEON (6) presses forward and probably asks the question. If that query garners a positive response then POLLY PUT KETTLEON (6) almost certainly prevails. If not, she still rates slightly clear but KEKOA (2) who was massive in semi-final and final of the Vicbred Super series for 4YO mares also comes very sharply into play. As does ROCKINGWITHSIERRA (5). The fact she hasn’t raced for four weeks and was scratched from a recent assignment is obviously worrying, but at her best ROCKINGWITHSIERRA (5) is actually superior to these and there was stacks to like about her last start performance. It’s tough to see anything else finishing first here, though ORBIE (1) is pretty much always in top form, and she’ll have few excuses from her perfect polemarking draw.
