RACE COMMENT
OVERVIEW: MY BETTOR HALF (9) is an Emma Stewart-trained three-year-old who raced against the top of her age group last year. She is lightly raced and will have improved from her first-up run in late January. Respecting the Stewart barn here, and she will appreciate the barrier to follow through early. IM WESLEY (1) has gate speed and races well when in front or on the fence. He will be able to hold a forward position here. BLACKINDEED (2) was checked out of the race last start, but her prior runs were great. She can make her own luck and will appreciate the forward barrier. MISTER FONZI (3) has a great turn of foot. If he can replicate the way he hit the line three starts back at Maryborough, he will be flashing home. BACK: MY BETTOR HALF (9) – 3 units (win)
