RACE COMMENT
OVERVIEW: THE DARK THUNDER (8) led throughout at his first run since an eighth in the Breeders Crown then followed with a victory in the Boort Cup, where he didn’t appear to handle the track but was still able to get the job done in style. He is awkwardly drawn but will be suited to competing on the bigger track at Shepparton and is a chance of completing a hat trick. WALLIS (9) was driven aggressively from the outside of the front line to find the lead and scored nicely at Maryborough. This race is harder but he is worth thought again. COCONUT MICKEY (1) won from behind the leader at Melton last week and is drawn to obtain a similar trip so he warrants respect. IM ABOVE THE LAW (4) is a bold front running trotter, which won at Kilmore three starts ago. He finished a close up fifth in the Ararat Cup last outing and should make his presence felt under these conditions. ABBIE (2) and CALL ME JACK (6) are both capable of showing up without surprising.
