RACE COMMENT
OVERVIEW: AT THE DISTANCE (6) close again last start and was a winner two starts again. Looks a major chance again here. SILENT REVERIE (4) runner up at her past two starts and just can’t break this winless drought since 2023. Deserves better and must be respected again. ALDEBARAN SUSANNE (9) good effort last start and chased determinedly from back in the field.  Can threaten again. JOE LOU (5) found trouble last start and is going well. Can figure in the finish. CHINSKI (2) not far away last start and looks well placed here to be fighting out the finish. Definite chance. KOTA BHARU (3) capable trotter that has done things wrong at his past two starts. Very capable of turning it around. Keep safe. FLING IT RAINBOW (1) a winner two starts ago and is a fast beginner and draws ideally. Gets every chance. PLEASE LAYLA (7) resumes but drawn wide. Might run well fresh. Place hope. MAJESTIC CHARMA (8) improved run last start and gets a soft trip here. First four hope. EARLY SPEED: 1,2,3,4 RATINGS: 6/ 4/ 9/ 5/ 2/ 3/ 1/ 7/ 8
