RACE COMMENT
OVERVIEW: HOOKLINEANDSINKER (2) is a brilliant beginner and is a good chance of leading throughout over the sprint distance. He attempted to lead throughout over the longer trip when second behind THEBUCKSONYOU (7) last week. AVOCA BLUES (5) showed a return to form when he attempted to lead throughout last week and finished second in a slick mile rate of 1.55.8. He gets into this race with a concession claim and is worth thought again. THEBUCKSONYOU (7) settled three back on the inside, moved away from the markers coming out of the back straight and finished off best to win against similar opposition last week. He is awkwardly drawn but is worth thought again. RONZEL RAFA (6) dropped back to last from a poor draw and was doing his best work at the end when fourth in the same race last week. He is poorly drawn again but is a winning chance if he gains the right luck in running.
