RACE COMMENT
OVERVIEW: NO EMOTION (11) settled at the tail of the field, was held up for a run at a vital stage and ran home strongly late when an unlucky second in his heat of this series. He has to overcome a tough draw again but he is the class runner of the field. GRENADE (4) pushed forward to race without cover in a hectic early tempo and battled on well for fifth in his heat performance. He is better than his form reads and is worth thought. GROVE DALE (1) led from the inside draw, raced very fiercely and established a big lead mid-race when a brave third last week. He is drawn to lead again and is a winning chance if he settles better mid-race. PUNTO CALIENTE (2) gets into this race well being a heat winner and will be hard to hold out in the run to the finish. LOVE TO DEAL (8) is usually competitive against this class and has claims from this trailing draw. BACK: NO EMOTION (11) – 1.5 units (each way)
