RACE COMMENT
OVERVIEW: The random barrier draw has come up nicely for GOTFEELINGSYOUKNOW (1), who has good gate speed and looks likely to either lead or settle leader’s back in this 1720m showdown. There doesn’t appear a great deal between this high-quality field of trotters, so I’m happy to play him each-way from the nice draw. Last time out, a fortnight ago at Bendigo in a race six of these horses contested, he settled in the 1x1 and never really got much clear air in the straight while being beaten 4.8m. KEAYANG STUKA (6) won that race after spearing to the front and controlling the tempo, but I’m not convinced he can cross to the fence this time around. REMUS PHOENIX (4) and LOVEMETO (7) ran great races there after coming three-wide for the last lap and loom as major players again, while the classy OLLIVICI (9) returns from a break here on the back of a few Melton trials. BACK: GOTFEELINGSYOUKNOW (1) – 1 unit (each-way)
