RACE COMMENT
OVERVIEW: The battle for early supremacy will be a key to the result with three of the major chances being drawn in one, two and three. SANTA CASA BEACH (2) is a genuine front runner and will clearly be the horse to beat if he can get to his favourite role shortly after the start. Three of his past four starts have been in the Mildura, Ouyen and Robinvale Cups so he has been racing against top grade from poor barriers. PRIORITISE (1) has been placed at his past four attempts and he finished off strongly from the second half of the field when second behind POWEROFPERSUASION (8) last week. He attempted to lead throughout at Metropolitan level when third at Melton three starts ago. MY ULTIMATE JIMMY (6) is poorly drawn again but he continues to race in great form. He was never a chance in a very slowly run Maryborough Cup on Sunday and chased hard when second in the Robinvale Cup prior. ALL DA RAGE (3) was disappointing at Mildura last week but he led throughout when an impressive winner at Globe Derby prior and is worth another chance. BACK: SANTA CASA BEACH (2) – 1.5 units (each way)
