RACE COMMENT
OVERVIEW: LORIMERMAJOR (9) was a winner in very good time three runs back at Maryborough and maps to not be too far from the leaders here. There looks to be a few who will want to run the gate so the tempo may be solid for him to be strong late. HEZ HARRYWHO (2) didn’t get things to his liking last week when shuffled back, and a more positive drive can see him improve. ILLAWONG PHOENIX (4) is a consistent type who normally likes to race on speed, it’s just hard to be confident about how the map pans out. KING SAINT (8) is second-up here and despite the awkward draw has the quality to be in the finish with luck. BACK: LORIMERMAJOR (9) – 1 unit (win)
