RACE COMMENT
1 – Feel The Knight7 – Ceasar Nero8 – Flip A Coin4 – Our Bella Lucia Feel The Knight’s (1) last two starts have caught my eye with the way he has hit the line to finish second. He has gate speed and draws the ace barrier here to hold a good position. This looks like a good race for him to get back into the winners circle. BACK: 1 Feel The Knight – 2 Units (win) Ceasar Nero (7) was an improved winner last start at Shepparton. If he can replicate that performance, he will go well here. Flip A Con (8) is a consistent performer and maps well here. Our Bella Lucia (4) is an experienced campaigner and is always thereabouts.
