RACE COMMENT
OVERVIEW: INSIDER TRADING (10) was runner up twice in succession prior to a sixth at Charlton, where he settled in the second half of the field from a poor draw. He has had a few chances since his latest victory but he strikes a suitable assignment now. SOAR (6) is a speedy type and didn’t have a great deal of luck after being caught wide early and having no clear run in the straight last outing so he is not without a chance. ALPHA CRUCIS (8) finished off best to score in a mile of 1.57.9 at Cranbourne last outing. He is awkwardly drawn on the inside of the second line but this race is no harder so he must be considered as a winning chance again. NO EMOTION (7) settled three back on the inside and failed to run on at Stawell last outing but his overall form is solid and he is worth another chance. OPTIMAL (9) should be finishing off nicely from his trailing draw.
