RACE COMMENT

OVERVIEW: BEACH DIAMOND (7) trailed the leader after commencing from the inside of the second line and did well to pick up some ground in a scintillating last quarter of 25.6 seconds when second in her heat. She brilliantly won the Super Series prior and importantly is drawn out in the open this evening so she can bounce back into winning form. PEACE OUT (5) sat on the outside of the leader throughout in a slowly run race and was able to show the best speed in the sprint up the straight when she won last week. She finished third in the Super Series Final prior and is worth thought again. SOHO AMERICANO (12) was run down after enjoying the perfect run in front last week but the last quarter was extremely fast so it might have a case where she was outsprinted rather than getting tired at the end. She won the Victoria Oaks in October and was runner up in the Super Series Final so she is worth another chance. LET HER ROLL (13) and SMIRKIN SERENE (9) were the first two across the line in the second heat of this series so they are worth respect but the heat won by PEACE OUT (5) did appear to be the stronger race on paper. EARLY SPEED: 7 (likely leader), 1,2,3,5 RATINGS: 7/ 5,12/ 13/ 9/ 10
