RACE COMMENT

OVERVIEW: FLIGHT LOUTENANT (2) comes from NSW, where he competed in stronger company than this. He now joins one of Victoria's premier trainers of low-rated horses, a stable renowned for producing immediate improvement from new acquisitions. This is moderate opposition and, although he hasn't trialled locally, everything points towards a winning debut for the new camp. Any market support would only add confidence. ROCK POSTER (7) was desperately unlucky two starts ago and, although she had every chance last time, still performed well. The draw is no help, but she's racing consistently and a win isn't far away. HEYNOWHEYNOW (8) makes his first start for an astute local stable and has trialled well enough to be considered despite the awkward draw. WOODVILLE FLYER (5) could improve sharply here. She did it tough last start and suffered a flat tyre the run prior. Three starts back she was beaten only a head by a subsequent winner. BACK: FLIGHT LOUTENANT (2) – 4 units (win)
