RACE COMMENT
OVERVIEW: An open trotting event where there’s not too much form to get overly excited about, but I liked the way OX KNOX (5) won two starts back at Cranbourne. He beat Charleston Avenue into third there and that horse has scored since. His effort last time out on Sunday at Maryborough was also good despite galloping turning for home and he did well to finish fourth. I assume he will be driven confidently and will take plenty of beating. SETTLE THE BILL (9) rarely runs a bad race and is definitely a winning hope, MONTANA CHEVELLE (3) is shooting for three in-a-row and has gate speed, while DOSSIER (7) is dropping back in class and certainly wouldn’t shock despite having an issue last time. BACK: OX KNOX (5) – 2 units (win)
