RACE COMMENT
OVERVIEW: SALSBOY (1) is a genuine sprinter and is perfectly drawn to suit his racing pattern. He was definitely going to run in the top two when he loomed up to join the leaders but broke stride with 100m remaining at his latest Bendigo seventh. The interesting runner is the former New South Wales trained mare ESPERANZA (6). She has been safely held at her past four attempts but she was a winner at Newcastle prior and the combination of trainer Nick Youngson and driver James Herbertson have enjoyed a lot of success over the past few months. DREAMTIME NALA (2) performs best when she is able to lead and she scored after securing the front running role at Bendigo on June 03 so a forward showing is expected. DANCEBYTHESEASIDE (4) is racing well enough to figure in the finish and THE LADYBIRD (8) should receive an economical trip from the trailing draw. BACK: SALSBOY (1) – 1.5 units (each way)
