RACE COMMENT
OVERVIEW: EYENEEDTHAT (2) competed in the Breeders Crown Final won by the top pacer Loucasso then followed with a fifth in the Caduceus Classic. The performance of Mister Americano in Race 3 should be a very good reference to his chances as their form-line is very similar. THE STEEL DRAGON (6) was caught wide early, restrained to a rearward position and finished off well late when a game third behind Hittheroadjack then followed with his second placed effort at Ballarat on Thursday night. WILD BULL (7) is also backing up quickly from his brave effort at Ballarat, where third in fast time and should be very competitive again. He led throughout when a big winner in a slick mile rate of 1.55.3 at Stawell on February 09. EASTBRO KOZZY (1) and TORQUE POWER (5) are both minor place hopes in a quality field.
