RACE COMMENT
A small field assembles for the mile event, where WEE GEORGIE WOOD (3) will be looking to use his good gate speed to find the pegs. Despite being a three-year-old, he looks to have his share of ability and should be suited by the mile distance. However, he may come under pressure early from several rivals, including REPETITIVE (4), who possesses blistering gate speed, and the two inside runners CUZZY JUNIOR (1) and IMA LITTLE NEEDY (2), who will also be looking to secure handy positions on speed. MONEYS NO ISSUE (7) will be hoping for a fast tempo up front, which would bring him right into the race after a string of good efforts from the back of the field without much luck. NATIONAL NEWS (5) and JAMES CAGNEY (6) will need to improve on recent performances to be featuring, though both do drop back in class here.Selections: WEE GEORGIE WOOD (3), MONEYS NO ISSUE (7), CUZZY JUNIOR (1), IMA LITTLE NEEDY (2)
