RACE COMMENT
OVERVIEW: HOME AND DRY (6) gained a nice trail, switched back to the inner on the home turn and tried hard for second behind Miss Piggy Wiggy last week. He is versatile and is usually competitive against this class so he must be respected. OLLY ODD POTTS (5) began quickly and shot to the lead in the early stages when a fair fourth in the same race last week. He was runner up at Shepparton prior and is worth thought again in this similar grade. CRESCO THREEPEAT (4) is a strong type and strikes a suitable assignment. He raced without cover throughout when fourth at Charlton two starts ago and he is a good chance of ending up in the same position here. HIGHVIEW HAMMER (7) was able to score in a mile rate of 1.56.9 at Shepparton on January 20 and a repeat performance would see him being highly competitive against this class. BACK: HOME AND DRY (6) – 2 units (win)
