RACE COMMENT
OVERVIEW: INSIDER TRADING (8) has been racing well in recent times and was rewarded with an overdue win last start. Suited again here and should prove hard to hold out. ALWAYS A SHOWGIRL (5) returns from Tasmania and joins the Andy Gath stable and strikes a suitable race and can figure in the finish. METRO BLISS (1) has been working up to a win and back in distance should be a positive. Drawn well and will get every chance. CARAPAZ (2) is a 2yo that will find this easier than recent starts and looks suited. One of the main chances. PLATINUMS BOY (3) WHITE LION (4) PISTOL QUEEN (6) and GOZO MAJOR (7) are amongst the place and first four hopes. EARLY SPEED: 1,2,5 RATINGS: 8/ 5/ 1/ 2/ 3/ 4/ 6/ 7
