Race comment
OVERVIEW: Most recent meetings at Vic Harness HQ have been less predictable than Melbourne’s weather. Thankfully, tonight’s programme seems far more fundamental in nature, though that theory doesn’t apply to the card’s opening event. Given perfect fortune, at least five, and perhaps eight of the 12 runners engaged can pave their path to triumph, though one staggering stat may prove the key to a profitable start. All things being equal, MAJOR MAJOR (1) should hold his rivals wide through the early stages. If, as predicted, he chooses to keep the leading role then the seriously in-form IRVINE (8) draws to lob the glorious, gilt-edged trail. And here’s the fun fact referenced above. The three times IRVINE (8) has settled leader’s back, he’s won. Wild isn’t it? And hopefully poignant. With that on record, however, the dangers are many. SLY TERROR (4) has endured a funny relationship with leading since arriving here in Oz, but should he find the top tonight – or even if he doesn’t – he looms as a giant winning chance as does the mercurial but perfectly drawn MAJOR MAJOR (1) the gifted – is also slightly frustrating – WE BETTOR BELIEVE IT (9), and also the ‘class’ pacer engaged in KOSIMO (12) who harbours the finest form-lines but may be cruelled by a race featuring little, if any, obvious mid-race heat. EARLY SPEED: 1 (Potential Leader) + 2?,3,5? + 4 RATINGS: 8/ 4/ 1/ 9/ 12/ 13/ 11/ 10/ 3/ 7/ 5/ 2

Race comment
OVERVIEW: Most recent meetings at Vic Harness HQ have been less predictable than Melbourne’s weather. Thankfully, tonight’s programme seems far more fundamental in nature, though that theory doesn’t apply to the card’s opening event. Given perfect fortune, at least five, and perhaps eight of the 12 runners engaged can pave their path to triumph, though one staggering stat may prove the key to a profitable start. All things being equal, MAJOR MAJOR (1) should hold his rivals wide through the early stages. If, as predicted, he chooses to keep the leading role then the seriously in-form IRVINE (8) draws to lob the glorious, gilt-edged trail. And here’s the fun fact referenced above. The three times IRVINE (8) has settled leader’s back, he’s won. Wild isn’t it? And hopefully poignant. With that on record, however, the dangers are many. SLY TERROR (4) has endured a funny relationship with leading since arriving here in Oz, but should he find the top tonight – or even if he doesn’t – he looms as a giant winning chance as does the mercurial but perfectly drawn MAJOR MAJOR (1) the gifted – is also slightly frustrating – WE BETTOR BELIEVE IT (9), and also the ‘class’ pacer engaged in KOSIMO (12) who harbours the finest form-lines but may be cruelled by a race featuring little, if any, obvious mid-race heat.

Race comment
OVERVIEW: Most recent meetings at Vic Harness HQ have been less predictable than Melbourne’s weather. Thankfully, tonight’s programme seems far more fundamental in nature, though that theory doesn’t apply to the card’s opening event. Given perfect fortune, at least five, and perhaps eight of the 12 runners engaged can pave their path to triumph, though one staggering stat may prove the key to a profitable start. All things being equal, MAJOR MAJOR (1) should hold his rivals wide through the early stages. If, as predicted, he chooses to keep the leading role then the seriously in-form IRVINE (8) draws to lob the glorious, gilt-edged trail. And here’s the fun fact referenced above. The three times IRVINE (8) has settled leader’s back, he’s won. Wild isn’t it? And hopefully poignant. With that on record, however, the dangers are many. SLY TERROR (4) has endured a funny relationship with leading since arriving here in Oz, but should he find the top tonight – or even if he doesn’t – he looms as a giant winning chance as does the mercurial but perfectly drawn MAJOR MAJOR (1) the gifted – is also slightly frustrating – WE BETTOR BELIEVE IT (9), and also the ‘class’ pacer engaged in KOSIMO (12) who harbours the finest form-lines but may be cruelled by a race featuring little, if any, obvious mid-race heat. EARLY SPEED: 1 (Potential Leader) + 2?,3,5? + 4 RATINGS: 8/ 4/ 1/ 9/ 12/ 13/ 11/ 10/ 3/ 7/ 5/ 2

Race comment
OVERVIEW: Most recent meetings at Vic Harness HQ have been less predictable than Melbourne’s weather. Thankfully, tonight’s programme seems far more fundamental in nature, though that theory doesn’t apply to the card’s opening event. Given perfect fortune, at least five, and perhaps eight of the 12 runners engaged can pave their path to triumph, though one staggering stat may prove the key to a profitable start. All things being equal, MAJOR MAJOR (1) should hold his rivals wide through the early stages. If, as predicted, he chooses to keep the leading role then the seriously in-form IRVINE (8) draws to lob the glorious, gilt-edged trail. And here’s the fun fact referenced above. The three times IRVINE (8) has settled leader’s back, he’s won. Wild isn’t it? And hopefully poignant. With that on record, however, the dangers are many. SLY TERROR (4) has endured a funny relationship with leading since arriving here in Oz, but should he find the top tonight – or even if he doesn’t – he looms as a giant winning chance as does the mercurial but perfectly drawn MAJOR MAJOR (1) the gifted – is also slightly frustrating – WE BETTOR BELIEVE IT (9), and also the ‘class’ pacer engaged in KOSIMO (12) who harbours the finest form-lines but may be cruelled by a race featuring little, if any, obvious mid-race heat. EARLY SPEED: 1 (Potential Leader) + 2?,3,5? + 4 RATINGS: 8/ 4/ 1/ 9/ 12/ 13/ 11/ 10/ 3/ 7/ 5/ 2
