RACE COMMENT
OVERVIEW: SEASIDE BOY (10) is a smart three-year-old from the Emma Stewart stable who has led and won all three starts this season in easy fashion. He draws the back row here, but looks to have plenty of gears left from what we’ve seen so far. He’s the horse to beat. HOORAH PHILTRA (5) has good gate speed and looms as one of the likely leaders along with OZZIE CORKA (3). He has a win and runner-up placing to his name since joining the Ashleigh Herbertson barn and would be hard to run down from the front. I’ve got a lot of time for HAPPILY (8), who came from well back to score effortlessly in a much easier race at Horsham on May 25 and appears to have really good ability, while ALL BLAZING GUNS (2) ran another nice race last time when sprinting from last in a sharp last half.
