RACE COMMENT
OVERVIEW: AMERICAN GUY (9) has been competitive in most of his eight career starts and broke through for a maiden win three runs ago when able to utilise his gate speed from the pole. He backed that effort up well before racing in stronger company last time, where he still rated well despite finishing down the track. With speed engaged off the front row, the race shape should suit him. ARZALI ROCKSTAR (3) won here two starts ago when mapping well and sprinting sharply in a slowly run affair. He got too far back last start and can be forgiven. CAPTAINS RUSH (5) returns to the front row after winning from the back row two starts ago before doing too much work last time. With better luck he can bounce back quickly. KITZBUHEL DELIGHT (10) won a feature in breaking his maiden but hasn’t threatened since. Two recent trials keep him under notice for the astute stable. BACK: AMERICAN GUY (9) – 2 units (win)
