RACE COMMENT
OVERVIEW: The champion mare KEAYANG ZAHARA (4) produced a stunning performance at her first run since May, where she sustained a long run from last to win easily. She has only suffered defeat once in seventeen starts and that was in record time so she is clearly the horse to beat. JILLIBY BALLERINI (2) is another top mare, which has won nine of her eleven starts for the season. She pushed forward to find the lead and recorded a sensational last half of 54.4 seconds when a runaway winner at Melton last outing and she looms as a definite danger. PARISIAN ARTISTE (9) finished fifth in the Inter Dominion Final during the Queensland Winter Carnival. He led throughout when an effortless winner at Menangle last outing and should be hitting the line strongly. DEREK THE JET (3) was beaten for the first time in ten starts when fifth in the Australasian Trotting Championship. That was his first run for a year so he should be fitter and is worth thought. The Inter Dominion Champion ARCEE PHOENIX (12) hasn’t been at his best form in three starts since resuming but he is very strong and should be getting fitter so he is too good to dismiss. EARLY SPEED: 2 (likely leader), 3,4 RATINGS: 4/ 2/ 9/ 3,12/ 8,10
