RACE COMMENT
OVERVIEW: JOHNS BOY (11) commences from the handicap of 20m but he is a very quick beginner from the standing start and has been racing in good form with his latest third being in strong grade at Menangle. Ten of his eleven career victories have been from the standing start so he is suited under these conditions. KEAYANG TWEETYBIRD (9) holds the key to the result. She is a very smart mare and was a runaway winner from the standing start three starts ago but she has been on her worst behaviour at her past two attempts. JACK SPRAT (8) is a strong type and progressed forward to find the lead shortly after the start when an effortless winner at Melton last outing. He performs best when he is close to the speed so commencing from the handicap of 10m is a disadvantage but he is too good to dismiss. EL CONQUEROR (4) and ANTONOV (7) are both racing well enough to figure in the finish and TICTOK (10) has claims if she puts her best foot forward.
