Race comment
OVERVIEW: CURLY JAMES (1) has enjoyed a prosperous campaign and should run a big race from the pole position. He did an enormous job in slick final sectionals to finish as close as he did when second behind Like A Wildfire at Melton last outing. He ran a big race for second behind Rock N Roll Doo in the Maryborough Cup in September and can go one better here. MAX DELIGHT (11) has been in brilliant form with his last three victories being in the Young Cup, the Sokyola Sprint and the Bendigo Cup. He was expertly guided by Nathan Jack in his victory last week and should be competitive again. SERG BLANCO (10) led out then took cover and chased hard when a narrow second in the Bendigo Cup. He won the Swan Hill and Yarra Valley Cups in November and he should make his presence felt. HURRICANE HARLEY (8) was third in the Bendigo Cup after settling three back on the markers and is likely to gain a similar economical run from his trailing draw so he must be respected. TAIPO (5) recorded a mile of 1.51.2 when he won the Brian Hancock Cup two starts ago and he took on Swayze and Leap To Fame in the Blacks A Fake (finished eleventh) during the Queensland Carnival so he must be kept safe. KANENA PROVLIMA (4) made it through to the Inter Dominion Final (finished 7th) so she must be considered as a winning chance. BULLETPROOF BOY (12) is poorly drawn but will run his usual honest race. EARLY SPEED: 1 (possible leader), 3,4,5, RATINGS: 1/ 10,11/ 5,8/ 4,12/ 7,9/ field

Race comment
OVERVIEW: CURLY JAMES (1) has enjoyed a prosperous campaign and should run a big race from the pole position. He did an enormous job in slick final sectionals to finish as close as he did when second behind Like A Wildfire at Melton last outing. He ran a big race for second behind Rock N Roll Doo in the Maryborough Cup in September and can go one better here. MAX DELIGHT (11) has been in brilliant form with his last three victories being in the Young Cup, the Sokyola Sprint and the Bendigo Cup. He was expertly guided by Nathan Jack in his victory last week and should be competitive again. SERG BLANCO (10) led out then took cover and chased hard when a narrow second in the Bendigo Cup. He won the Swan Hill and Yarra Valley Cups in November and he should make his presence felt. HURRICANE HARLEY (8) was third in the Bendigo Cup after settling three back on the markers and is likely to gain a similar economical run from his trailing draw so he must be respected. TAIPO (5) recorded a mile of 1.51.2 when he won the Brian Hancock Cup two starts ago and he took on Swayze and Leap To Fame in the Blacks A Fake (finished eleventh) during the Queensland Carnival so he must be kept safe. KANENA PROVLIMA (4) made it through to the Inter Dominion Final (finished 7th) so she must be considered as a winning chance. BULLETPROOF BOY (12) is poorly drawn but will run his usual honest race. EARLY SPEED: 1 (possible leader), 3,4,5, RATINGS: 1/ 10,11/ 5,8/ 4,12/ 7,9/ field

Race comment
OVERVIEW: CURLY JAMES (1) has enjoyed a prosperous campaign and should run a big race from the pole position. He did an enormous job in slick final sectionals to finish as close as he did when second behind Like A Wildfire at Melton last outing. He ran a big race for second behind Rock N Roll Doo in the Maryborough Cup in September and can go one better here. MAX DELIGHT (11) has been in brilliant form with his last three victories being in the Young Cup, the Sokyola Sprint and the Bendigo Cup. He was expertly guided by Nathan Jack in his victory last week and should be competitive again. SERG BLANCO (10) led out then took cover and chased hard when a narrow second in the Bendigo Cup. He won the Swan Hill and Yarra Valley Cups in November and he should make his presence felt. HURRICANE HARLEY (8) was third in the Bendigo Cup after settling three back on the markers and is likely to gain a similar economical run from his trailing draw so he must be respected. TAIPO (5) recorded a mile of 1.51.2 when he won the Brian Hancock Cup two starts ago and he took on Swayze and Leap To Fame in the Blacks A Fake (finished eleventh) during the Queensland Carnival so he must be kept safe. KANENA PROVLIMA (4) made it through to the Inter Dominion Final (finished 7th) so she must be considered as a winning chance. BULLETPROOF BOY (12) is poorly drawn but will run his usual honest race. EARLY SPEED: 1 (possible leader), 3,4,5, RATINGS: 1/ 10,11/ 5,8/ 4,12/ 7,9/ field

Race comment
OVERVIEW: CURLY JAMES (1) has enjoyed a prosperous campaign and should run a big race from the pole position. He did an enormous job in slick final sectionals to finish as close as he did when second behind Like A Wildfire at Melton last outing. He ran a big race for second behind Rock N Roll Doo in the Maryborough Cup in September and can go one better here. MAX DELIGHT (11) has been in brilliant form with his last three victories being in the Young Cup, the Sokyola Sprint and the Bendigo Cup. He was expertly guided by Nathan Jack in his victory last week and should be competitive again. SERG BLANCO (10) led out then took cover and chased hard when a narrow second in the Bendigo Cup. He won the Swan Hill and Yarra Valley Cups in November and he should make his presence felt. HURRICANE HARLEY (8) was third in the Bendigo Cup after settling three back on the markers and is likely to gain a similar economical run from his trailing draw so he must be respected. TAIPO (5) recorded a mile of 1.51.2 when he won the Brian Hancock Cup two starts ago and he took on Swayze and Leap To Fame in the Blacks A Fake (finished eleventh) during the Queensland Carnival so he must be kept safe. KANENA PROVLIMA (4) made it through to the Inter Dominion Final (finished 7th) so she must be considered as a winning chance. BULLETPROOF BOY (12) is poorly drawn but will run his usual honest race.
