RACE COMMENT
OVERVIEW: WICKED WIZARD (2) is resuming since a fourth in the Western Region series at Wagga on December 05. He worked home well for third at a Cobram trial effort behind Aussie Jay Mac last week and is drawn to give a bold showing. FLYING SPARKS (5) sustained a flat tyre and failed to finish at his latest attempt. He hit the line strongly at his previous two placed efforts and he recorded handy time at a Bacchus Marsh trial victory on Saturday so he must be considered as one of the leading chances. ARE WEASLEY (9) left a trailing position to move up without cover when a brave third behind REGAL ROCK (4) at Kilmore. He is racing in good form and is worth an investment. YANKEE CAPTAIN (7) has been safely held at his past two attempts but he will appreciate a drop back in class and is capable of showing improvement.
