RACE COMMENT
OVERVIEW: EARS THE BOSS (8) performs best when he is able to lead so being drawn on the second line is a disadvantage but he was very impressive at his Mildura debut last week, where he beat a field of similar standard by fourteen metres. He does follow behind a reasonable beginner so should receive a good trip and a repeat performance will see him being very competitive here. GRENADE (11) is another pacer, which performs best when close to the speed but is racing too well to dismiss. He has been placed in four of his past five starts and this race is no harder. THE TOOTH FAIRY (1) is perfectly drawn to suit her racing pattern and should be in front for a long way. She ran a sharper race when second behind Rocking Wroxton last time out. PUNTO CALIENTE (4) didn’t have much luck last week after having a wide trip in the early stages of the event. He should be nearing his peak after having two starts back from a break and he should run his usual honest race.
