RACE COMMENT

OVERVIEW: SHEZFAIRYSWEET (2) was resuming since April when a creditable third behind Lilstrepo (won again since) at Shepparton on November 04. She should continue to improve with the benefit of experience and must be included amongst the leading chances. THE GOLDEN HOOK (3) looms as the main danger. He missed out narrowly behind My Bella at Swan Hill then followed with a third behind Floppa at Kilmore last week. MILLWOOD MIKI (9) performed well at the trials prior to a first up third behind Mezzanotti at St Arnaud. He is working into peak form and rates as a value chance. LA SMOOCH (7) contested a strong heat of the Super Series last outing and is likely to find this assignment to be easier. He is widely drawn but is not without a winning chance. EARLY SPEED: 1 (possible leader) 2,3,4,7 RATINGS: 2,3/ 7,9/ 1,8/ 4
