RACE COMMENT
OVERVIEW: VYTIS (7) resumes from a break and is very smart when right. Mixed his form last campaign but his best form would have him fighting out the finish here. KEAYANG TWEETYBIRD (6) is a quirky trotter that has good ability when doing things right and is a major threat here. KEAYANG GYPSY (5) will find this easier than last start and does have ability. Gets a favourable draw and is amongst the main chances. LEANNE LEEANN (3) 9yo mare that is racing well and can make her presence felt whilst SNICKERS EXPRESS (4) has been meeting stronger company and capable of improving. SHONEE (2) MATTYO (1) KEAYANG MINNESOTA (9) and RIDETHELIGHTNING (8) are place and first four hopes. EARLY SPEED: 1,5,6 RATINGS: 7/ 6/ 5/ 3/ 4/ 2/ 1/ 9/ 8
