Race comment
OVERVIEW: HESITATE (3) was suited by a blistering early tempo but he won superbly on debut as he raced well clear at the finish and posted a mile rate of 1.55.3. His trial form prior was very strong so he looms as the horse to beat again. UNCLE TREV (1) began swiftly to lead and completely dominated his rivals to win on debut at Bendigo. He looked very good but his mile rate of 1.59.4 was four seconds or over fifty metres slower to that recorded by HESITATE (3), which is a lot of ground to make up. STORMY WOODS (2) raced very greenly at his debut then worked very hard early in attempting to find the lead when fourth at his latest attempt. He is drawn nicely and is a definite place chance. ARCHIE MOTH (4) (The Storm Inside) showed a good turn of speed in the final 200m when he won a trial at Shepparton last week. He obviously has ability but is meeting some very smart colts first up. EARLY SPEED: 1 (likely leader), 2,3 RATINGS: 3/ 1/ 2/ 4/ 5/ 6
