RACE COMMENT
OVERVIEW: SOHO AMERICANO (9) was defeated by BEACH DIAMOND (8) in her heat performance last week but her effort was just as good as the winner. She left a trailing position to move up without cover and went down fighting so she can turn the tables the way the draw has panned out. BEACH DIAMOND (8) is shooting for five wins in succession and is a good chance of completing the task. She scored in the Tasmanian Oaks two starts ago then led throughout to win her heat last week. GOLDEN SHOOZ (10) was the fastest of the two heat winners after she led out then took cover and outgunned LET HER ROLL (11) over the final stages last week. She is not as well drawn for this assignment but is worth thought again. SOAP AND BUBBLES (2) sprinted home nicely for third last week and has claims along with the New Zealander JOYRIDE (4) and LET HER ROLL (11). EARLY SPEED: 2 (possible early leader), 1,4 RATINGS: 8,9/ 10/ 2,11/ 4
