RACE COMMENT
OVERVIEW: KISS (7) was resuming since August when a big winner at Melton, where she sustained a long run from a rearward position. She should be even better from that performance and looms as the horse to beat again. LOOK LIKE DIAMONDS (6) finished unplaced behind KISS (7) at her latest attempt but she endured a torrid trip and had excuses. Her form prior was sound and she should give a forward showing under these conditions. SURFINGMAKESCENTS (1) is an honest mare that has been placed at her past six starts and is drawn to receive every chance. She finished off well for third behind KISS (7) last outing and is worth a ticket each way. DELIGHTFUL STAR (2) and THE ANSWER (5) have both been racing well in New South Wales and are not without a chance. EARLY SPEED: 6 (possible leader), 1,2,5 RATINGS: 7/ 1,6/ 5/ 2
