RACE COMMENT

OVERVIEW: HARPERSEVEN (7) finished off best to win the Super Series then appeared to be very impressive in her heat victory last week, where she showed good gate speed to lead and dominated at the end, recording a very slick final quarter of 27.1 seconds. She has the worst draw out of the leading chances but she is right in the zone at present. ALDEBARAN ADA (3) settled three back on the markers, moved into the breeze at the 600m and sustained a strong run to win her heat. She was runner up in the Super Series Final prior and looms as one of the leading chances again. GLADIATRIX (2) began quickly but couldn’t lead and ended up angling in behind the leader when a close second in her heat. She has won most of her races in New South Wales from the front and she is ideally drawn so she must be considered as a winning chance. JILLIBY AURA (6) had every chance behind HARPERSEVEN (7) last week but she continues to build on her consistent record and is worth a ticket each way. MEVIA (5) made up a lot of ground after being severely checked at the 1500m in her heat effort and is a value hope. EARLY SPEED: 2 (possible leader), 1,3,6,7 RATINGS: 3,7/ 2/ 6/ 1,5
