RACE COMMENT
OVERVIEW: OUR BELLA LUCIA (1) produced a surprise when she blew her rivals away by a huge margin at Melton two back, and while she was perhaps a little plain in the race won by Aveiro last Friday, she did plenty of work there and draws for a much better trip in this event. I love the way PRECIOUS BELLE (3) keeps hitting the line of late. She has run great races for many weeks now, and if she finds a nice spot in transit, she will give this a shake. GLENLINE (6) is another that finds the post in his races and will be one of the closers, while SHIRALEE (5) has won only one of her last five when starting favourite on each occasion, but is usually thereabouts.
