RACE COMMENT
OVERVIEW: JETTER SON (9) is building up a strong record and looms as the horse to beat again. He sustained a long run from the 800m mark and battled on gamely for second behind Ted at Bendigo last week. This race is no harder so he can bounce back into winning form. MERRYWOOD PAUL (6) worked hard to find the lead and was run down on the line when second at Bendigo then recorded a slick mile of 1.54.8 when he won at Cranbourne. He is a good chance of finding the lead again and is worth an investment. ARNIES ARMY (4) has been unplaced in both of his starts since returning from New South Wales but he possesses early speed and is capable of a better performance. CHEERSTOLOU (2) endured a tough trip and ran a cheeky race when sixth behind High Flux last week. He is better drawn for this assignment and is not without a chance. EARLY SPEED: 6 (possible leader), 1,2,4 RATINGS: 9/ 6/ 2,4/ 1
