RACE COMMENT
OVERVIEW: Bit of speed off the front here with MUSSEL SHOALS (1), REIGN EM IN (2) and OLLIES MEDAL (4) regular gate runners. Given the expected early tempo, I’m happy to play MICHEN ROY (8) from inside the back row. He was very brave sitting parked and winning two starts back at this track and carved out some decent times in front last time when grabbed late by LORIMERMAJOR (9). He’s going well and I’d be surprised if he didn’t go close with even luck. There’s plenty of depth in this event, though, with four horses having been victorious at their latest outing. BETATHANABOUGHTONE (6) was way too good for LORIMERMAJOR (9) and co at Shepparton last time and ran a cracker for second at Swan Hill before that, OLLIES MEDAL (4) might get across to the fence and prove hard to catch, while REIGN EM IN (2) can certainly figure.
