RACE COMMENT
OVERVIEW: INSIDER TRADING (1) had been running really well against tough opposition such as Keayang Renegade and Sanchez before finding a very suitable race and scoring a dominant win as a short-priced favourite at Melton on May 1. He has good gate speed, and while there is some early toe to his outside, he should be able to lead if Ryan Sanderson desires. From there, or even leader’s back, he’d be awfully hard to beat. THE GOLDEN HOOK (8) came from well back to run third behind KING SAINT (4) last time at Kilmore and looks to get a great run in behind the pole-marker, ANOTHER WOODS (9) backed up a good run of form to win well from the front at Geelong last week, while YA BOTTOM DOLLAR (5) scored a deserved success when sprinting too fast from behind KING SAINT (4) at Shepparton on May 12 and is a chance despite the difficult barrier. BACK: INSIDER TRADING (1) – 3 units (win)
