RACE COMMENT
KEAYANG GALLIANO (1) looks well suited here back to the mile and again draws the pole courtesy of her lifetime earnings. She has good gate speed, though stablemate SIR NIPPA (3) also possesses early dash, making the initial stages intriguing. Either way, there doesn’t appear to be strong mid-race tempo, so both shape as the ones to beat. MISTA EAGLE (8) secures favourable pegs draw over the mile and will be storming home with any luck in running. It would not surprise to see any of the others pop up and win, but it may take one to inject pressure in the first 200 metres to open the race up for others — potentially ALWAYS AURORA (2) from the nice draw who is racing well.Selections KEAYANG GALLIANO, SIR NIPPA (3), MISTA EAGLE (8), ALWAYS AURORA (2)
