Race comment
OVERVIEW: There’s no greater gauge of resilience – or lunacy – than charging confidently toward a combatant you’ve never previously conquered. Those that regularly read this Saturday night comment will be aware that our success rate via Victoria’s rapidly proliferating 1200m contests is poor to say the least. Nevertheless, and yet again, we think we have found one. The key to this six furlong event is probably MAJOR MAJOR (2). Rarely has a horse been so suited to extreme shirt-course racing and he did lead and win an easier contest on this platform just three starts ago. That fellow should comfortably cross the polemarker and if he opts to keep that advantage the three highest-rated runners from the three most confronting alleys will benefit greatly. If, however, MAJOR MAJOR (2) chooses to lead and trail then WE BETTOR BELIEVE IT (4) may well be a moral. Much has been made of that guy’s seemingly disappointing failure when beaten after leading two starts back, but he’s a smart customer and if he’s either gifted the front, or simply finds it via pure pace, there’s every chance his three key threats – sit-sprinters all – will spot Mattie Craven’s former Kiwi veteran a massive start, and, also, let him get away with murder. Should the tempo be more genuine than expected then LETSROCKLETSROLL (7) – who may storm the start but probably won’t – and COBBER (6) look the obvious swoopers though LA CAPTAIN (8) – who may also storm the start, but also probably won’t – can also swamp them late if the breaks all go his way. EARLY SPEED: 4 (Potential Leader) + 2,8? + 1,3?,5?,7? RATINGS: 4/ 7/ 6/ 8/ 1/ 5

Race comment
OVERVIEW: There’s no greater gauge of resilience – or lunacy – than charging confidently toward a combatant you’ve never previously conquered. Those that regularly read this Saturday night comment will be aware that our success rate via Victoria’s rapidly proliferating 1200m contests is poor to say the least. Nevertheless, and yet again, we think we have found one. The key to this six furlong event is probably MAJOR MAJOR (2). Rarely has a horse been so suited to extreme shirt-course racing and he did lead and win an easier contest on this platform just three starts ago. That fellow should comfortably cross the polemarker and if he opts to keep that advantage the three highest-rated runners from the three most confronting alleys will benefit greatly. If, however, MAJOR MAJOR (2) chooses to lead and trail then WE BETTOR BELIEVE IT (4) may well be a moral. Much has been made of that guy’s seemingly disappointing failure when beaten after leading two starts back, but he’s a smart customer and if he’s either gifted the front, or simply finds it via pure pace, there’s every chance his three key threats – sit-sprinters all – will spot Mattie Craven’s former Kiwi veteran a massive start, and, also, let him get away with murder. Should the tempo be more genuine than expected then LETSROCKLETSROLL (7) – who may storm the start but probably won’t – and COBBER (6) look the obvious swoopers though LA CAPTAIN (8) – who may also storm the start, but also probably won’t – can also swamp them late if the breaks all go his way. EARLY SPEED: 4 (Potential Leader) + 2,8? + 1,3?,5?,7? RATINGS: 4/ 7/ 6/ 8/ 1/ 5

Race comment
OVERVIEW: There’s no greater gauge of resilience – or lunacy – than charging confidently toward a combatant you’ve never previously conquered. Those that regularly read this Saturday night comment will be aware that our success rate via Victoria’s rapidly proliferating 1200m contests is poor to say the least. Nevertheless, and yet again, we think we have found one. The key to this six furlong event is probably MAJOR MAJOR (2). Rarely has a horse been so suited to extreme shirt-course racing and he did lead and win an easier contest on this platform just three starts ago. That fellow should comfortably cross the polemarker and if he opts to keep that advantage the three highest-rated runners from the three most confronting alleys will benefit greatly. If, however, MAJOR MAJOR (2) chooses to lead and trail then WE BETTOR BELIEVE IT (4) may well be a moral. Much has been made of that guy’s seemingly disappointing failure when beaten after leading two starts back, but he’s a smart customer and if he’s either gifted the front, or simply finds it via pure pace, there’s every chance his three key threats – sit-sprinters all – will spot Mattie Craven’s former Kiwi veteran a massive start, and, also, let him get away with murder. Should the tempo be more genuine than expected then LETSROCKLETSROLL (7) – who may storm the start but probably won’t – and COBBER (6) look the obvious swoopers though LA CAPTAIN (8) – who may also storm the start, but also probably won’t – can also swamp them late if the breaks all go his way. EARLY SPEED: 4 (Potential Leader) + 2,8? + 1,3?,5?,7? RATINGS: 4/ 7/ 6/ 8/ 1/ 5
