RACE COMMENT
OVERVIEW: BLUE MIKI (4) has been racing well and does have the early speed to race handy and over the sprint trip should be in this for a long way. JUST INCREDIBLE (9) is a lightly raced 2yo that creates interest arriving from Queensland and having won his past two starts and joins the astute Kyle Marshall stable. Can run well. ALWAYS A SHOWGIRL (8) landed some good bets to win when joining the Andy Gath stable last start. Can run well again. CINQUANTA (2) has bene racing below her best but is much better than her figure form reads. No surprise to see her improve here. LEWIELEWIS (6) THE MOUNTAIN (1) WICHITA KANSAS (3) and DOUBLE THE HUNTER (7) haven’t been far away and have claims with suitable trips. EARLY SPEED: 1,2,4 RATINGS: 4/ 9/ 8/ 2/ 6/ 1/ 3/ 7
