RACE COMMENT
OVERVIEW: MAJESTIC TOOTH (3) looks to have found a good race to land her first win since August 2025. She has been competitive in some races above or around this level in recent starts and gets the chance to use her gate speed to find the front. If she can lead, I think she will give a great sight. PROHIBITED GRACE (7) is flying with a win and photo-finish second her past couple but has a really awkward gate, PARIS KAY (1) draws well and is going okay in easier grade, while DELS DESTINY (4) often gets back but will be hitting the line hard as he usually does. BACK: MAJESTIC TOOTH (3) – 1 unit (each-way)
