RACE COMMENT
OVERVIEW: It is a very open race to commence the program with many winning chances. FAIR CHANCE (5) is racing in career best form and had little luck when fourth at her latest attempt, which was her first unplaced effort from her past ten starts. She recorded a slick mile rate of 1.55.6 prior so she is worth another chance. KEAYANG SANTIAGO (3) was able to lead throughout under similar conditions at Geelong last week. It is a very fast front line but he should be competitive again from his good draw. LENARD ESS (9) will be suited by an expected fast early tempo and he was finding the line nicely at his latest fourth so he rates as a value hope. BLAZIN HEAVEN (2) won from behind the leader at Cranbourne two starts ago recording a career best mile of 1.54.7. She is drawn to obtain a similar position here and is worth an investment. EARLY SPEED: 3 (possible leader), 1,2,4,7 RATINGS: 5/ 3/ 2,9/ 1,4,7/ FIELD
