Race comment
OVERVIEW: ILLAWONG LARAJAY (10) circled around the field mid-race to park without cover and fought on gamely in the straight when a creditable third against similar opposition last week. She is a very honest mare and should go well again. ALDEBARAN MILEY (4) began swiftly and was able to get across to the markers early then took cover at the 1700m when she finished second behind Susan Is Her Name at Melton last outing. She is drawn to find the lead in the early stages again and is worth an investment. AVANT GUARD (8) is ready to break through for a win but is very awkwardly drawn on the inside of the second line. He progressed forward to find the lead and went down fighting when a brave second behind Pinnie at Melton last outing. MERCENARY (7) and NEPHEW OF SONOKO (9) have both performed at a higher level previously and TICTOK (12) is rising in class but is racing at her peak. EARLY SPEED: 4 (possible leader), 2,3,5,7 RATINGS: 10/ 4,8/ 7,9/ 12/ 1/ FIELD

Race comment
OVERVIEW: ILLAWONG LARAJAY (10) circled around the field mid-race to park without cover and fought on gamely in the straight when a creditable third against similar opposition last week. She is a very honest mare and should go well again. ALDEBARAN MILEY (4) began swiftly and was able to get across to the markers early then took cover at the 1700m when she finished second behind Susan Is Her Name at Melton last outing. She is drawn to find the lead in the early stages again and is worth an investment. AVANT GUARD (8) is ready to break through for a win but is very awkwardly drawn on the inside of the second line. He progressed forward to find the lead and went down fighting when a brave second behind Pinnie at Melton last outing.

Race comment
OVERVIEW: ILLAWONG LARAJAY (10) circled around the field mid-race to park without cover and fought on gamely in the straight when a creditable third against similar opposition last week. She is a very honest mare and should go well again. ALDEBARAN MILEY (4) began swiftly and was able to get across to the markers early then took cover at the 1700m when she finished second behind Susan Is Her Name at Melton last outing. She is drawn to find the lead in the early stages again and is worth an investment. AVANT GUARD (8) is ready to break through for a win but is very awkwardly drawn on the inside of the second line. He progressed forward to find the lead and went down fighting when a brave second behind Pinnie at Melton last outing. MERCENARY (7) and NEPHEW OF SONOKO (9) have both performed at a higher level previously and TICTOK (12) is rising in class but is racing at her peak.

Race comment
OVERVIEW: ILLAWONG LARAJAY (10) circled around the field mid-race to park without cover and fought on gamely in the straight when a creditable third against similar opposition last week. She is a very honest mare and should go well again. ALDEBARAN MILEY (4) began swiftly and was able to get across to the markers early then took cover at the 1700m when she finished second behind Susan Is Her Name at Melton last outing. She is drawn to find the lead in the early stages again and is worth an investment. AVANT GUARD (8) is ready to break through for a win but is very awkwardly drawn on the inside of the second line. He progressed forward to find the lead and went down fighting when a brave second behind Pinnie at Melton last outing. MERCENARY (7) and NEPHEW OF SONOKO (9) have both performed at a higher level previously and TICTOK (12) is rising in class but is racing at her peak.
