RACE COMMENT
OVERVIEW: VIVID DREAM (2) looks a nice prospect for the Joe Pace stable, and heads here after an effortless win as a short-priced favourite at Cranbourne on July 19. He led, controlled the race and darted home in a slick last half to prevail under minimal driving. Given how WAR ZONE (1) left the gate and pulled hard when winning from the at Melton last week, I’m not sure he gets the front, but he should get a lovely trip from gate two and is a major player. BAYSTYLE (5) made up really good ground from back in the field when a narrow second last Friday behind Breathe Easy and had some really good form before that, including a second to Comeandsee in the Ballarat Rising Star. Key chance. SHIFFRIN (7) worked hard to find the top and only faded late in her bid for a three-peat last time out, while WAR ZONE (1) scored at massive odds when running his rivals into the ground last Friday at Melton. 10-UNIT GAME PLAN R2 #10 TEX GOES BANG – 1 unit (each-way)R3 #5 LITTLE MISS MORGAN – 2 units (win)R5 #5 INSIDER TRADING – 2 units (win)R6 #2 KITZBUHEL DELIGHT – 2 units (win)R7 #2 OFF YOUR FACESKI – 2 units (win) EARLY QUADDIE 1,2,5,9,10/1,2,4,9,10,11/5,7/2,3,5,10 QUADDIE 4,5,6,8/1,2,4,6/2,3,4,6/5,6,7
