RACE COMMENT
Second up in last week’s Be Good Johnny Sprint, CAPTAIN SHUFFLES (6) faced an awkward draw when retreating for position. With the closing tempo set from the front making it too hard for those chasing, the effort was solid. 4m from FOR REAL LIFE two starts back, he has the class edge to capitalise. ALBY TWO CHAINS (3) was stepping out for the new stable for the first time when eased from the widest gate as the field settled in single file at the mile. Attacking the line with venom to grab the silver, his closing splits were impressive in his first run since July. Added fitness and another small field are in his favour. WAMBOYNEINAMERICA (5) was too slick in a PB mile from the front two starts back which had followed victory at 2138. Under 3m from the flying TREMENDOUS SENSATION when chasing the hat-trick, he can chase minor money here.
