RACE COMMENT
OVERVIEW: JUSTALITTLESIP (5) backed up a trial victory at Bacchus Marsh in slick time with a fast finishing third behind Rakajed last week. He gets into this race nicely with a concession claim and must be considered as a winning chance. ODIN (8) trailed the leader and was held up for momentum on the home turn before running home nicely along the sprint lane to claim second behind He’s All Torque at Melton last week. He is awkwardly drawn but is racing consistently and deserves to break through for a win. JILLIBY ILLUMINATE (10) possesses a powerful finishing and will appreciate a drop back in class for this assignment so she is not without a chance. JACCKA CONNOR (4) came from a long way back and finished off stylishly when third last week. This is a race of similar quality so he is worth thought again. MIGHTY FLYING ART (9) competed against the open class at his Victorian return and is likely to find this assignment to be more suitable. EARLY SPEED: 5 (likely leader), 7 RATINGS: 5/ 8,10/ 4/ 9/ 2
