RACE COMMENT
Nearly every horse in this field could win with the right run here, but as usual I’m expecting these races to be on speed dominated. SETTEBELLO (4) and SAPPHIRE GAMBLER (5) both flew the stand, and won or placed accordingly at St Marys. They look the fastest of the front row beginners, however you cant knock winning form in OBLER (1) going for 3 straight wins, and won off 20m last start. COLBY SANZ (8) was far too tough in a similar field last start and expect him to race well at his local track, and will no doubt have good local support in the market. CAN FEEL THE FURY (2) and DENNY (3) were both heat winners of the North West Plate at Burnie and will be looking to sit on speed, whilst POWER UP (7) probably brings the strongest form to the race, but will need a better beginning than his only attempt so far from the stand.Selections  SAPPHIRE GAMBLER (5), COLBY SANZ (8), DENNY (3), POWER UP (7)
