RACE COMMENT
OVERVIEW: CHEERS POVERTY (3) is a fast beginner and produced a dominant display when he led throughout in a slick mile rate of 1.56.8 two starts ago. He couldn’t get across to the markers in the early stages and ended up being in the one out and one back trail at his latest fifth. He is drawn to find the lead again here and will take catching. THEBUCKSONYOU (6) is a consistent 4yo pacer, which finished off best to win at Mildura on February 11. He didn’t have much luck after commencing from the inside of the second line and went down fighting at his latest second so he warrants respect. JOE GOT ROLLED (7) is awkwardly drawn but will appreciate a significant drop back in class on his latest seventh in the Echuca Cup and is capable of improving on his numerical form. MIDNIGHT PIRATE (8) is racing well enough to figure in the finish and CAULONIA TERROR (10) should be finishing off strongly.
