Race comment
OVERVIEW: SERG BLANCO (9) has returned from a spell in outstanding form and is capable of completing a hat trick. He won the Swan Hill Cup prior to swooping past Captain Ravishing to easily win the Yarra Valley Cup last outing. CURLY JAMES (11) settled in the second half of the field and did a great job to finish as close as he did when seventh (7m) in the Breeders Crown FFA last week. He won in a mile rate of 1.54.0 at Melton prior and is racing in career best form so he cannot be left out of calculations. OUTLAW MAN (4) progressed forward at the start and eventually found the lead when he finished third at Bendigo last outing. He is likely to land a prominent position again and must be considered as one of the leading chances. BULLETPROOF BOY (10) continues to race consistently against elite opposition and should be competitive again. LIKE A WILDFIRE (1) is sure to attract plenty of support from the pole position while JILLIBY KUNG FU (5) and MAX DELIGHT (6) are both capable of showing up without surprising.

OVERVIEW: SERG BLANCO (9) has returned from a spell in outstanding form and is capable of completing a hat trick. He won the Swan Hill Cup prior to swooping past Captain Ravishing to easily win the Yarra Valley Cup last outing. CURLY JAMES (11) settled in the second half of the field and did a great job to finish as close as he did when seventh (7m) in the Breeders Crown FFA last week. He won in a mile rate of 1.54.0 at Melton prior and is racing in career best form so he cannot be left out of calculations.

He is likely to land a prominent position again and must be considered as one of the leading chances. BULLETPROOF BOY (10) continues to race consistently against elite opposition and should be competitive again.

Race comment
OVERVIEW: SERG BLANCO (9) has returned from a spell in outstanding form and is capable of completing a hat trick. He won the Swan Hill Cup prior to swooping past Captain Ravishing to easily win the Yarra Valley Cup last outing. CURLY JAMES (11) settled in the second half of the field and did a great job to finish as close as he did when seventh (7m) in the Breeders Crown FFA last week. He won in a mile rate of 1.54.0 at Melton prior and is racing in career best form so he cannot be left out of calculations. OUTLAW MAN (4) progressed forward at the start and eventually found the lead when he finished third at Bendigo last outing. He is likely to land a prominent position again and must be considered as one of the leading chances. BULLETPROOF BOY (10) continues to race consistently against elite opposition and should be competitive again. LIKE A WILDFIRE (1) is sure to attract plenty of support from the pole position while JILLIBY KUNG FU (5) and MAX DELIGHT (6) are both capable of showing up without surprising.

Race comment
OVERVIEW: SERG BLANCO (9) has returned from a spell in outstanding form and is capable of completing a hat trick. He won the Swan Hill Cup prior to swooping past Captain Ravishing to easily win the Yarra Valley Cup last outing. CURLY JAMES (11) settled in the second half of the field and did a great job to finish as close as he did when seventh (7m) in the Breeders Crown FFA last week. He won in a mile rate of 1.54.0 at Melton prior and is racing in career best form so he cannot be left out of calculations. OUTLAW MAN (4) progressed forward at the start and eventually found the lead when he finished third at Bendigo last outing. He is likely to land a prominent position again and must be considered as one of the leading chances. BULLETPROOF BOY (10) continues to race consistently against elite opposition and should be competitive again. LIKE A WILDFIRE (1) is sure to attract plenty of support from the pole position while JILLIBY KUNG FU (5) and MAX DELIGHT (6) are both capable of showing up without surprising. EARLY SPEED: 4 (possible leader), 1,5,7 RATINGS: 9,11/ 4/ 10/ 1,5,6
