RACE COMMENT
OVERVIEW: MINNIE MIA (1) was placed in a heat of the Breeders Crown last season and is resuming since a seventh in the Homegrown Classic in December. She came from last when a game second at a Melton trial effort last week and she should prove hard to beat under these conditions. PLEASURE TO HAVE (3) is a juvenile colt that is taking on older horses but he was very impressive at his Shepparton trial success last week and appears to have a promising future so he cannot be dismissed. SAMBEZIA (7) was resuming since May when he chased hard and just failed to pick up Just Me And You at Kilmore last outing. He should have improved by that performance and is capable of going one better. ALIZA MEL (4) only had two starts during her last preparation so she lacks solid racing but she did finish fifth in the Nutrien Classic Final last season and her trial form is okay so she is not without a chance. BACK: PLEASURE TO HAVE (3) – 1 unit (each way)   10-UNIT GAME PLAN
