RACE COMMENT
OVERVIEW: TELERN LOFTY (9) came through the fastest heat and carried extra merit considering he was first up from a break and won with a bit of authority despite the small field. With added fitness and a soft trailing draw he shapes as the one to beat. OUR ART WORK (2) was able to lead and win the Mildura heat and it looks the same set-up for him to find the top again over the short trip. OOH AH LISTAH (10) won the other Bendigo heat and has found some consistent form this preparation, going for a hat-trick. SKYFALL BENCHMARK (5) was well supported when he led in Telern Lofty’s race but had every chance; however, he warrants respect. BACK: TELERN LOFTY (9) – 2 units (win) For all your harness form in one place go to goodform.thetrots.com.au  ** A betting unit is typically a percentage of the total bankroll or the amount of money you are willing to risk on a particular bet – for example 1 unit is 10% of your bankroll, therefore a $100 bankroll 1 unit equals $10 Chances are you’re about to lose. For free and confidential support call 1800 858 858 or visit gamblinghelponline.org.au.
