RACE COMMENT
OVERVIEW: TEX GOES BANG (5) won at big odds two runs back when sitting parked in good time, then followed that up with a disappointing run last start. He’s best when he can get up on speed and grind them down, so will be swinging for a long way if he can control the tempo. CALEDONIAN TERRA (1) is back in the draw after mixing his stride at the start three runs back but quickly regrouped to win at Melton in a similar line-up to what he meets here. His last couple have been good from back-row draws, and he can press forward and look to lead these and take catching. PRECIOUS BELLE (4) just missed last time, coming from back in the field and flashing late, albeit in a moderate last quarter. She always needs luck with her get-back racing pattern, but she may get the right pressure up top for her to come hard late and commands respect. DANCINGONSTARLIGHT (2) can be a sharp improver on her numerical form, second-up from a break here, and she didn’t have much time to wind up when fifth on resumption. She gets the right run here and can flash late. BACK: TEX GOES BANG (5) – 1 unit (win)
