RACE COMMENT
OVERVIEW: EAGLE MAJOR (3) has been racing honestly this preparation, only missing a place three times in 10 attempts, and one of those was last start where he had plenty of excuses. He was a winner prior to that when well supported over the short trip and leading all the way. He’s a tough type who will likely try to wrestle away the lead here over the middle trip and take plenty of catching. MADAM REACTOR (2) is a quick beginner and led from a wider draw to win two starts ago in easier company. Although she can be a little hard to catch, it’s encouraging she’s been more consistent over the past month or so. She will be in it for a long way. MASTER MIKI (5) was a winner two runs back at Wagga in easier company, but her last half was quite strong there. She was ok last time, and this looks a suitable assignment. AMERICAN HAMMER (8) improved for the new stable to win last time out at Wagga at decent odds. He did have a good time of it in front, but on the ratings scale gets in well with his claiming price, so keep him safe.
