RACE COMMENT
OVERVIEW: STARZZZ DESTINY (9) has run last in her last three outings, but things haven’t panned out very well in those races and I think she can be a sharp improver here as the highest-rated runner in the small field. Earlier in the campaign, she managed good runner-up placings to Wild Card and Intrusion, and on that form she looks very competitive in this even contest. I fancy the speed will be on early with a number of fast beginners drawn off the front, including BREATHE EASY (3) who has been very brave as runner-up his last two at Ballarat. He looks ready to win. ALWAYS A SHOWGIRL (6) just missed in a photo from four back the pegs in a race ANOTHER WOODS (5) won at Melton on April 24 and chased home the smart Insider Trading for another second last week, while KHANS CREED (8) returns from a spell and might get the run of the race if WICHITA KANSAS (1) kicks up to hold the lead. Fascinating contest where you can make a case for them all!
