RACE COMMENT
OVERVIEW: VYTIS (4) was travelling extremely well on the home turn and it appeared as though he was going to finish second before he was checked and broke stride in his heat of this series. He definitely should have made the final so he will prove almighty hard to beat in the Bronze Consolation. ZARSKI (10) is resuming since a second at Charlton behind Paris Jamilla on September 29. He is a very smart trotter when he is able to able to put it altogether and should be competitive if he gives a fool proof display. CHARLESTON AVENUE (5) gained a nice trail and chased hard when a close second behind the in-form trotter Faith Full at Cranbourne last outing. His last victory was over the handy type Ringer Wells in August and he looms as one of the leading chances here. ALDEBARAN SUE (8) led throughout at Maryborough when resuming then broke stride at the start and lost her chance last outing. She is awkwardly drawn but has the ability to feature prominently. EARLY SPEED: 3 (possible leader), 1,2 RATINGS: 4/ 5,10/ 8/ 3/ 1
