RACE COMMENT
MAJOR ART (4) has the hoof on the till after seconds in his two Victorian starts since joining Jason Grimson, last start fighting well to miss narrowly at Kilmore. Draws wider but should be peaking now and he goes well at the mile so the distance drop should suit. BARTELLO (2) is going well having come from wider barriers than this in recording a win and two placings in his three starts at this circuit and distance since a spell. This looks stronger but he is race fit and well served by this draw. JALANEEL (1) led from this barrier and stuck on well to be beaten less than 2m as runner-up last week. Can give a sight again. SILVER PISTOL (10) is an interesting newcomer to the Luke McCarthy yard. Draws wide and didn't set the world alight at the trials but he won a NSW Derby heat here last year so keep safe along with COLOSSAL HOPE (3) who rises in grade after winning his first outing for Mick Stanley at Newcastle but he draws well and is progressive.
