RACE COMMENT
OVERVIEW: KYVALLEY MARIACHI (1) is working up to a win after some strong performances and looks suited here. Drawn well and should be hard to beat.  BETTOR MAN (5) gave a great sight last start and was brave in defeat. Can race in a forward position and must be respected. JOEY BEE (11) has been a costly trotter to punters in recent times. Started favourite and broke last start. Gets another chance here. RASENGAN (8) finished off strongly late last start and will be doing the same again here, especially if he can follow through from the second line. Both EQUAL AND OPPOSITE (7) and ITGETSBETTER (3) ran well last start and have place claims. CHILLHUNNYBUNNY (10) resumes and might run well fresh. ALDEBARAN BRIANNA (6) BILLYSOPHIA (4) PIQUE (2) and BLONDIES BLIS (9) could improve to be first four hopes. EARLY SPEED: 1,3,5 RATINGS: 1/ 5/ 11/ 8/ 7/ 3/ 10/ 6/ 4/ 2/ 9
