RACE COMMENT
OVERVIEW: BLACK OPAL JACK (9) was resuming since an Ararat victory in November when he ran home strongly from midfield to finish second behind Colosimo at Maryborough. He should be sharper from that performance and strikes a very suitable line up now. STEAM MACHINE (10) is a strong type that performed well at his two starts during the Mount Gambier Cup Carnival. He was runner up in the Southern Cross Final at Globe Derby during his last preparation so he demands respect. JILLIBY UTAH (1) has had a few chances of late but he strikes his best draw for a long time and leading reinsman James Herbertson takes the drive so an improved effort would not surprise. SHUDABOUGHTABOAT (8) met a strong field and struck trouble with 200m remaining when unplaced at Bendigo last week. He led throughout to win at Kilmore prior and he has a nice trailing draw behind JILLIBY UTAH (1) so he is worth another chance. BACK: BLACK OPAL JACK (9) – 2 units (win)
