RACE COMMENT
OVERVIEW: Lots of winning hopes here, but happy to be in the corner of the in-form MY LITTLE BO (9) for Andy Gath. She ran a great race when fourth – beaten just 3.7m by Hes No Romeo – on ANZAC Day and that was a much stronger race than she tackles here. Keen runs well. INTRUSION (8) was simply brilliant winning by a big space in a slick last half on the same card and must be a huge chance again here, SOAP AND BUBBLES (7) has a great turn of foot on her but just can’t quite land close enough in the run to win and PERUN (4) was massive in defeat after a tough trip when nailed in the shadows of the post by Kosimo last Friday. He looks ready to win soon. Other hopes are headed by SEA FURY (2), who was huge when second to Fire Marshall two starts ago at Melton and might find the top. BACK: MY LITTLE BO (9) – 1 unit (each-way)
