RACE COMMENT
OVERVIEW: MISSMALACHITE (7) is racing in career best form and deserves to break through for another win. She led throughout at Charlton on April 26, was beaten by a smart one in Happily two starts ago and powered home late for an eye-catching second at Stawell last time out. THE REGULATOR (9) was resuming since September when he was aggressively driven to find the lead early and battled on strongly behind Bond Girl at Geelong. He should strip fitter from that run and this race is no harder so he is capable of going one better. ATOMIC GLORY (4) led out then took cover when second behind Gallico at Warragul last week. He has been runner up against similar opposition three times recently and is worth thought again. SHEZABLUECHIP (6) sustained a good run to win at Shepparton last outing and has claims along with SALSBOY (10), which is capable of sprinting to the line quickly with the right trail forward. BACK: MISSMALACHITE (7) – 2 units (win)
