RACE COMMENT
OVERVIEW: JILLIBY DREAMLOVER (2) pushed forward to find the lead and couldn’t have been more impressive when she scored by a large margin in a slick mile rate of 1.55.7 last week. This is a race of more depth but she is the horse to beat again. KEAYANG LAVITA (4) is the obvious danger. She chased hard after her champion stable mate Keayang Zahara and was seemingly going to run second but broke stride at the 150m when unplaced in the Super Series then followed with a fifth in the Great Square at Albion Park. FOUROUTOFFIVE (3) sustained a long run to win at Melton two starts ago then did well after a bad getaway when fifth behind I’m Bobby at Melton last week. He is a versatile trotter and is a definite place chance. EL RESAMO (9) and IMPERIAL COMMAND (11) both perform best when they are able to lead so being drawn on the second row is a disadvantage but they are racing too well to dismiss. EARLY SPEED: 2 (likely leader), 1,3,4,5 RATINGS: 2,4/ 3/ 1,9,11/ 6/ 8
