RACE COMMENT
OVERVIEW: SENNA STORM (4) joins trainer John Tormey and should make his presence felt at his local debut. His second behind Animado at Melton in a mile rate of 1.56.0 on April 15 is a good form pointer to this event. ONLY ONCE BITTEN (8) progressed forward from the outside of the front line to find the lead and was gunned down in the last stride when second behind Glitzy All Over last week. She ran a handy second behind Loseashoe prior and is worth thought again. WATCH YOUR BACK (7) is a former Queensland pacer, which led throughout to win at Shepparton when making his Victorian debut. He faces a negative swing in the barrier draw but is worth thought again. G B BRAVE (10) has had one win and five seconds from six starts at Mildura so he has done a terrific job since joining trainer Kate Attard. He hasn’t raced for a month but he is versatile and should be finding the line well. BACK: SENNA STORM (4) – 1 unit (each way)
