RACE COMMENT
OVERVIEW: ARTIGAS (3) can be hard to trust given his wayward manners, but his best appears pretty good when he strings it together as he did on May 31 at Maryborough. He trotted throughout there and was a dominant winner third-up from a break. If he trots, he looks very hard to beat here. KAMARAN (4) has put in a great campaign to date and again caught the eye when flashing home from back in the field for third behind Johns Boy at Melton on May 30. He backed it up with a front-running second to Wallis last weekend and looms as one of the key chances. FARROKH (10) is first-up from a break, but heads here on the back of two good wins before a spell and a couple of wins at the trials, while CARLA PIXIE (11) is another looking for three victories in succession after triumphing at Globe Derby and dead-heating with the in-form With Aplomb at Geelong last Friday night. BACK: ARTIGAS (3) – 2 units (win)
