RACE COMMENT
OVERVIEW: SEASIDE BOY (2) is resuming since a seventh in the Super Series Final back in November but he dashed home in a sizzling last quarter of 26.7 seconds to win a Terang trial last week so he is the horse to beat. MY MARIONETTE (1) is resuming since a third behind River Storm in the Homegrown Classic at Melton in December. She also won a trial last week and she drawn to receive every chance so she must be considered as one of the leading chances. TAPPY (8) worked hard on the outside of the leader throughout when fourth at Melton last outing. He finished off strongly when he scored at Kilmore prior and he should gain an economical trip from the trailing draw. MY ULTIMATE LUIGI (4) is a versatile pacer, which hasn’t had much luck recently and is capable of filling a place. BACK: SEASIDE BOY (2) – 3 units (win)
