RACE COMMENT
ROMANEE (4) should be hitting peak fitness fourth-up and has the hoof on the till after a strong showing last week, coming from one spot wider for third at this circuit and distance, beaten just over 2 metres. Big chance to break through. ROCLEA IMAGE (2) was a big improver at his latest appearance at this venue, coming from wider to be beaten just 2.8 metres into fourth. Should have no excuses from this more favourable draw. MCWIZARD (1) backs up off a midfield finish here on Tuesday and while up in grade he is aided by the ace draw. HUGO MAGUIRE (7) has been freshened since the last outing but came from the extreme outside to place here two back so could measure up.
