RACE COMMENT
OVERVIEW: RAKAJED (7) is an extremely strong pacer, which finished second at open class level behind Keayang Tokyo three starts ago then followed with placed efforts in strong grade at Menangle. He is likely to progress forward from the wide draw and should make his presence felt. STORMRYDER (5) attempted to lead throughout when second behind LOOK LIKE DIAMONDS (10) at Melton two starts ago. He is a genuine front running pacer and is likely to attempt to lead throughout. LOOK LIKE DIAMONDS (10) is a versatile mare and is racing in great form having won four of her past five starts. She progressed forward to find the lead and held off the challenge of Louie Lou I at Melton last outing. SURFINGMAKESCENTS (6) worked to the front, copped plenty of pressure and went down fighting in a sizzling mile rate of 1.52.2 last outing. She should run her usual honest race. DIAMOND ECLIPSE (8), SWEETNIKKILOU (9) and KISS (11) all have claims in a race of great depth. EARLY SPEED: 5 (likely leader), 4,6,7 RATINGS: 5,7/ 10/ 6,11/ 8,9
