RACE COMMENT
OVERVIEW: ZANDA MAN (3) is a talented performer rising quickly through the grades. He put together four straight wins earlier in his campaign before contesting feature races at his past two starts against top-level opposition. He looks a star of the future. TORQUE POWER (2) has strong recent sectional times and should be able to use the barrier to secure a forward position. He’s racing well and maps favourably. OUR ULTIMATE GRACY (4) has won her last two starts since joining Kerryn Manning’s team, leading on both occasions. This is a step up and she may have a different map, but she is in form. WILD BULL (6) is a competitive type who keeps fighting. He’s racing well and will need to make his own luck.
