RACE COMMENT
OVERVIEW: DOT BALL (2) will start from the pole and hopefully that’s not a disadvantage for her map, as she begins only moderately and the key is whether she can land leaders back. Her runs of late have been very good, finding the line well, so if things work out for her she can be strong late. THE REGULATOR (5) is having his fourth run for the new stable and has performed well at his past couple, winning two starts back when coming off the speed in a slow last half. He had to do too much work last time out. He’s a chance of finding the top here and will be hard to run down. POWERLINC (6) had her first run for the new stable and was travelling well to the turn before sprinting fairly to the line. The draw is a little awkward, but with natural improvement she can be in the mix. CHASING THE WIND (3) has been better at his past couple, and the draw means he should get good cover to challenge late if the tempo is right. BACK: DOT BALL (2) – 2 units (win)
