RACE COMMENT
OVERVIEW: Awesome three-year-old contest here where we see the return of highly-promising youngster LUVTOBEUPTOME (5). He was one of the best juveniles in the state last season, closing his campaign with an incredibly brave third in rapid time from the chair behind Loucasso in the Breeders Crown final. His most recent trial was good at Melton and he looks ready to fire in 2026. LE CARDINAL (7) was a tragedy beaten last weekend when buried away on the fence and then blocked for a run in the straight when fourth to Medina, MOST EXCITING (6) is two from two this campaign but has just strolled to the front on each occasion and it won’t be so easy here, while SOLS ME NAME (3) has also won both starts this campaign in easier company at Kilmore and Cranbourne but has been impressive in doing so. BACK: LUVTOBEUPTOME (5) – 3 units (win)
