RACE COMMENT
Placed in both runs this campaign in Qld, DHONI TROUBLE (11) was making good metres for the bronze last start when faced with the 40m impost. Moving forward to the 20m tape under the conditions, he was just a neck away two back in a similar line up. He can cash in. DAIMYO (1) found similar conditions here last start and took advantage when stepping cleanly, leading them up and seeing them off for a narrow victory. With some confidence from the win and the chance to settle handy off the front tape, he can again issue the challenge. MY RUMOUR HAS IT (3) is always better suited from the front tape. Making a rare error last start, it had followed a string of placings and if she gets the start right, will give plenty of cheek. NATTY PAGGER (2) has placed at his past two starts, the latest when 2m astern of the winner ALDEBARANSTILINSKI after settling in the trail. That was from 20m, with the front a big plus.
