RACE COMMENT

OVERVIEW: MAJOR EASTWOOD (1) is tuning up nicely for his maiden victory, with a strong placing here last week which was good on the clock. He was well up in class his two runs prior and was unlucky not to win four runs back at this track. This looks a very suitable race, and the draw is in his favour to map in a winning position. IM HELLS BELLE (2) is a first starter who won a trial at this track last week and looked like she has talent. The stable has a high strike rate and any market moves need to be monitored closely. BUNGY (4) has been good in his two runs back from a break, placing in both. He will press forward from the draw, but it’s uncertain how his map will play out. ELLIANA (6) has been ok at her past couple of runs. She was forced to do it tough last week and stuck on well. She has place claims. BACK: MAJOR EASTWOOD (1) – 3 units (win)
