OVERVIEW: FOLLOW THE ECLIPSE (2) is stepping up in class but he has been impressive this campaign and dominated his rivals at his latest victory so he must be respected. YNOBE DAKOTA (10) races best when she is able to lead but she has been in great form and should be competitive again. She led throughout and recorded a slick mile rate of 1.57.9 when she scored at Terang last week. JOSHUA RICHARD (11) will appreciate a drop back in class for this assignment and has been performing consistently so he is not without a chance. MY CELEBRITY (9) won five races in succession prior to his past two unplaced runs.

OVERVIEW: FOLLOW THE ECLIPSE (2) is stepping up in class but he has been impressive this campaign and dominated his rivals at his latest victory so he must be respected. YNOBE DAKOTA (10) races best when she is able to lead but she has been in great form and should be competitive again. She led throughout and recorded a slick mile rate of 1.57.9 when she scored at Terang last week. JOSHUA RICHARD (11) will appreciate a drop back in class for this assignment and has been performing consistently so he is not without a chance. MY CELEBRITY (9) won five races in succession prior to his past two unplaced runs. He has settled in a rearward position from poor alleys at his past two attempts and he is drawn behind one of the leading chances here so he can bounce back into form.

Race comment
OVERVIEW: FOLLOW THE ECLIPSE (2) is stepping up in class but he has been impressive this campaign and dominated his rivals at his latest victory so he must be respected. YNOBE DAKOTA (10) races best when she is able to lead but she has been in great form and should be competitive again. She led throughout and recorded a slick mile rate of 1.57.9 when she scored at Terang last week. JOSHUA RICHARD (11) will appreciate a drop back in class for this assignment and has been performing consistently so he is not without a chance. MY CELEBRITY (9) won five races in succession prior to his past two unplaced runs. He has settled in a rearward position from poor alleys at his past two attempts and he is drawn behind one of the leading chances here so he can bounce back into form. EARLY SPEED: 1 (likely early leader), 7 RATINGS: 2,10/ 9,11/ 1,7/ 6
