RACE COMMENT
OVERVIEW: TALISKER SKIPPER (9) looks well placed despite the back-row draw, benefitting from the preferential draw conditions in a small field. He has won two of his past three starts and the defeat in between came in a strong form race. This looks highly suitable. ICANMOTOR (1) gets a favourable draw in a suitable race and has a strong record at this track. With the right run he can be strong late. WHERES WOOD WOOD (8) won from this draw two starts ago thanks to a clever drive and is racing well enough to figure again with luck. CRESCO THREEPEAT (5) looks close to another win after two solid closing efforts, though he may need to work again from this gate.
