RACE COMMENT

OVERVIEW: TAURAS (1) started in the market on debut during September in a heat of the Nutrien series and was only beaten 8.3m by the very handy Munny The Munster, who we saw win impressively at Shepparton on Tuesday night. He hasn’t been seen at the trials this time in, but from the draw he can go on top in a difficult race to assess. KING OF NORMANDY (7) was bred and is owned by the powerful Yabby Dam Farms operation, and has trialled up nicely with two wins ahead of his debut. In his latest hit-out, he beat FREMARKSMARVEL (2) into second and that horse also steps out here for her debut. MISS HOLLY RED (3) and MOONLIGHT BILLY (6) might be next best in a race where none of the runners would really surprise.
