OVERVIEW: FIGHTER COMMAND (1) is a smart 3yo that made excellent progress during his last campaign. Looks well suited at his first run back from an ideal draw and looks very hard to beat. ANGUS INDIANA (8) has just kept improving and strung together some excellent wins. No reason why he can’t threaten again. DENNY (3) former Kiwi that has had two starts since arriving here in Australia and resumes here from a break. Shows ability and expect a forward showing. Experienced pacers HITTHEROADJACK (9) and MAJOR MANBAR (10) have nice trailing draws whilst YOUNGGIFTEDANDBLACK (7) is a dour mare that rarely runs a poor race but faces a horror draw and must considered as place and first chances.

Race comment
OVERVIEW: FIGHTER COMMAND (1) is a smart 3yo that made excellent progress during his last campaign. Looks well suited at his first run back from an ideal draw and looks very hard to beat. ANGUS INDIANA (8) has just kept improving and strung together some excellent wins. No reason why he can’t threaten again. DENNY (3) former Kiwi that has had two starts since arriving here in Australia and resumes here from a break. Shows ability and expect a forward showing. Experienced pacers HITTHEROADJACK (9) and MAJOR MANBAR (10) have nice trailing draws whilst YOUNGGIFTEDANDBLACK (7) is a dour mare that rarely runs a poor race but faces a horror draw and must considered as place and first chances.
