Race comment
OVERVIEW: IDEAL ESCAPE (4) and TERRY (9) were both caught at the back of the pack in a leader dominated race last week, where the winner Solesseo Matuca dashed home in a sizzling final half of 55.5 seconds. IDEAL ESCAPE (4) performed well at the Bendigo trials prior and he has the barrier draw advantage over TERRY (9) so he gets the nod. TERRY (9) was heavily supported and was able to find the lead shortly after the start when he scored over Captain Bellasario two starts ago and his overall form since coming from New Zealand has been strong so he must be rated highly. MIRAKURU (3) is a tough type and should be getting fitter after having two starts back from a spell. He tried to make a long run in the last lap when a creditable sixth behind Operative Line last outing. POST GAME (2) produced a big finish out wide on the track when an eye-catching second behind Kosimo at Melton last week. This is a race of more depth but he is getting closer to a win. EARLY SPEED: 1 (likely early leader), 3,4,5 RATINGS: 4,9/ 2,3/ 8/ 5,6

Race comment
OVERVIEW: IDEAL ESCAPE (4) and TERRY (9) were both caught at the back of the pack in a leader dominated race last week, where the winner Solesseo Matuca dashed home in a sizzling final half of 55.5 seconds. IDEAL ESCAPE (4) performed well at the Bendigo trials prior and he has the barrier draw advantage over TERRY (9) so he gets the nod. TERRY (9) was heavily supported and was able to find the lead shortly after the start when he scored over Captain Bellasario two starts ago and his overall form since coming from New Zealand has been strong so he must be rated highly. MIRAKURU (3) is a tough type and should be getting fitter after having two starts back from a spell. He tried to make a long run in the last lap when a creditable sixth behind Operative Line last outing. POST GAME (2) produced a big finish out wide on the track when an eye-catching second behind Kosimo at Melton last week. This is a race of more depth but he is getting closer to a win. EARLY SPEED: 1 (likely early leader), 3,4,5 RATINGS: 4,9/ 2,3/ 8/ 5,6

MIRAKURU (3) is a tough type and should be getting fitter after having two starts back from a spell. He tried to make a long run in the last lap when a creditable sixth behind Operative Line last outing. POST GAME (2) produced a big finish out wide on the track when an eye-catching second behind Kosimo at Melton last week. This is a race of more depth but he is getting closer to a win.

Race comment
OVERVIEW: IDEAL ESCAPE (4) and TERRY (9) were both caught at the back of the pack in a leader dominated race last week, where the winner Solesseo Matuca dashed home in a sizzling final half of 55.5 seconds. IDEAL ESCAPE (4) performed well at the Bendigo trials prior and he has the barrier draw advantage over TERRY (9) so he gets the nod. TERRY (9) was heavily supported and was able to find the lead shortly after the start when he scored over Captain Bellasario two starts ago and his overall form since coming from New Zealand has been strong so he must be rated highly. MIRAKURU (3) is a tough type and should be getting fitter after having two starts back from a spell. He tried to make a long run in the last lap when a creditable sixth behind Operative Line last outing. POST GAME (2) produced a big finish out wide on the track when an eye-catching second behind Kosimo at Melton last week. This is a race of more depth but he is getting closer to a win.
