RACE COMMENT
OVERVIEW: KING KASEY (9) is racing outside of his class range but he is a smart 3yo pacer that has won three of his six starts to date and he recorded fast time at a runaway trial success at Maryborough on Wednesday so he must be respected. OUR ULTIMATE GRACY (7) led throughout at her first two victories back from a long spell then attempted to lead throughout when seventh (4.5m) in a strong race at Melton on March 07. This is a more suitable assignment and she warrants respect. NOSWEETSFORYOU (6) is a strong mare that has been racing at Metropolitan level and will appreciate a drop back in class for this assignment. She was able to outstay her rivals at a Wedderburn victory in January and should make her presence felt under these conditions. MANINKY MOONSHINE (1) is drawn to receive every chance and has claims along with SPORTSBOU (4), KEAYANG PAYTON (5) and THE NAKED ART (8). BACK: KING KASEY (9) – 1 unit (win)
