RACE COMMENT
ANALYSIS: HOPPY (8) produced something really impressive first-up from a long break when he charged home into third behind I Am Wilma and Im Bobby in free-for-all grade. He recorded the best last half of 55.76 and closed off better than subsequent winner Keayang Stuka, who scored at Melton last weekend. That was a much stronger race than this and he must be the horse to beat despite being the sole runner on the back row. IRON WOMEN (3) is a serious danger drawn off the front where she is expected to lead. She found the top and was way too good over this 1720m trip in mid-May and was a good runner-up behind Crackerjack last time out when she handed up the front. HOWDY MATE (5) hasn’t raced since third in the rich Nutrien series final at Wagga in late May but is a smart three-year-old, while dual Group 1 winner KEAYANG KURKI (7) is first-up and has the ability to give this a shake. BACK: HOPPY (8) – 4 units (win)
