RACE COMMENT

OVERVIEW: YAMBUKIAN (11) continues to race in outstanding form and should prove hard to beat again. He worked to the front, dashed clear on the home turn and dead-heated for first with Sahara Breeze last week. TRIPLE EIGHT (10) settled on the markers, was held up for a run at a vital stage and angled wide on the turn when he stormed home late for second behind Bay of Biscay last outing. He was unlucky last time out and is ready to break through for a win but his main rival YAMBUKIAN (11) is probably the more versatile horse of the two. CANTFINDABETTORMAN (9) commenced his campaign off beautifully with two impressive victories then wasn’t beaten by far but didn’t seem to perform as well at his next two attempts. He is a classy horse when racing at his peak and is worth another chance. OPERATIVE TIME (1) and GHOST OF TIME (5) are both fast beginners and have claims over the sprint distance. KEAYANG TOKYO (8) will be fitter after his first up second and is a winning chance if OPERATIVE LINE (1) can hold a forward position at the start.  EARLY SPEED: 5 (possible leader), 1 RATINGS: 10,11/ 9/ 1,8/ 5
