RACE COMMENT
OVERVIEW: MY ULTIMATE JIMMY (5) showed good gate speed to lead and set up the track record speed over 2570m when fifth behind Miki To Success in the Charlton Cup. He has won seven of his eleven starts at Mildura and has created a big impression so he is sure to have plenty of admirers. PRIORITISE (6) began brilliantly from the outside of the front line and led clearly when a big winner in a mile rate of 1.56.4 at his first run since December. This is a field of similar standard and he should go well again. MAXY WANTS TO PLAY (7) finished well from the second half of the field when third in the race won by PRIORITISE (6) last week. He boasts an excellent record at Mildura and should prove hard to beat again. SANTA CASA BEACH (8) is shooting for a hat trick but he does tend to race best when he is able to lead and being drawn on the second row is a disadvantage. HOT DEAL (9) has performed below expectations at his past two attempts but he is too good to dismiss.
