RACE COMMENT
OVERVIEW: DIAMOND ECLIPSE (12) finished off powerfully to win last start and is very smart. One of the main chances. CURYO GENTLEMAN (7) placed in the Swan Hill Cup and racing against stronger company. A major chance again. SPIRIT OF ANARCHY (1) arrives from NSW and gets a favourable draw. Racing well and should be in this for a long way. STRAPPING RED (5) has been airborne of late and is a fast beginner and should be well poised throughout. Can give a big sight.  MADIGAN (10) is working back into fitness and form and is very close to a win. Don’t dismiss. DHAULAGIRI (8) going well and will get a soft trip. Don’t ignore. MAXY WANTS TO PLAY (9) racing well against slightly easier company and must be respected. HES ALL TORQUE (11) tough effort to win last start. This is harder and does have a challenging draw to overcome. HOORAH PHILTRA (3) speedy and can race handy. Place chance. PESCI (6) a winner at this track and is an opportunist. Has claims. OUR CHEEKY DEVIL (4) is a first four hope. EARLY SPEED: 1,3,5 RATINGS: 12/ 7/ 1/ 5/ 10/ 8/ 9/ 11/ 3/ 6/ 4
