RACE COMMENT
OVERVIEW: MAXY CAN DANCE (12) is a promising 3yo pacer, which has won two of his three starts to date. He came out three horses wide from the 700m and sustained a long run to score in a quick mile rate of 1.56.5 at Maryborough last week. JAMES GARNER (6) is a tough type and battled on strongly for a close second behind The Steel Dragon last outing. He is racing consistently and deserves to break through for a win. MONTANA PRIDE (7) was held up for a run at a vital stage and finished off quickly for second at Ballarat last outing. He is poorly drawn but looms as one of the leading chances. SASSYOLA (1) is perfectly drawn to suit her racing pattern and has claims along with JUSJOHN (8), which won against easier grade when on debut. EARLY SPEED: 1 (likely early leader), 2,5,6 RATINGS: 12/ 6,7/ 1/ 10,11
