RACE COMMENT

OVERVIEW: LONGTAN VIPER (4) has really caught the eye in recent starts since joining the new stable, producing strong closing sectionals from difficult draws. He drops slightly in grade here and although he’ll still need some luck, he could represent value. GIDGETT KAY (6) is a three-year-old filly from a strong stable who won at Menangle on debut. Her three runs back in Victoria have been in much stronger races run at genuine speed. With the right run she’s capable of sharp improvement. YANKEE MOJOH (2) is a winner at this track and has been racing consistently against moderate opposition. She maps favourably from the draw. REALLY SMARTIE (1) has the gate speed to lead, but his recent form has been below his best. He was racing well earlier in the campaign, though it’s difficult to know exactly where he’s at now. BACK: LONGTAN VIPER (4) – 1 unit (win)
