RACE COMMENT
OVERVIEW: COMMODUS (1) pushed forward to find the lead from a wide draw, ran along at a genuine tempo and completely dominated his rivals when he won his heat. He was runner up behind the outstanding filly Tracy The Jet in the Holmfield prior and he is clearly the horse to beat from the pole position. SAM NIEN (3) trailed the leader and finished off best to win the Nutrien Classic at Melton two starts ago. He tried hard when second behind IJUSTCALLEDTOSAY (7) in his heat performance and he is drawn to receive a nice trail just off the speed so he must be considered as one of the leading chances. IJUSTCALLEDTOSAY (7) is very strong and has won five of his ten starts to date. He endured a tough trip when a big winner of his heat so he must be rated highly. I AM HELLBOUND (10) finished off stylishly for an eye-catching third last week. He is a value chance along with CLAUDYS HERO (9) and MUSKEE (12). EARLY SPEED: 1 (likely leader), 3,7 RATINGS: 1/ 3,7/ 10/ 12/ 9
