RACE COMMENT
OVERVIEW: Here’s the final of heats run at Maryborough and Bendigo where I’m siding with a runner who comes through the latter of the qualifiers. MOUNT BARKER BOY (3) was a very impressive winner of the race at Lord’s Raceway when he sat parked for the last lap and drew clear to win softly on the line. It followed a good trial in the lead-up and he looks very hard to beat from the front line. He defeated the handy KEAYANG PASSION (13) and CAPTAIN MOLLY (12) there, with the latter finishing second to the smart Franco Nickelback at Wagga on Saturday night. COLOSIMO (2) won the other of the heats at Maryborough and might get the lovely trip in behind MOUNT BARKER BOY (3), while BLACK OPAL JACK (8) and ARZALI ROCKSTAR (4) both should be considered for the minor end of trifectas and First 4s after good runs behind COLOSIMO (2).
