RACE COMMENT
OVERVIEW: WOTTAWIZARD (7) is a two-year-old taking on older horses, but he looks well placed to make it back-to-back wins. He was a great run in defeat at Melton two back and then smashed his rivals with a good victory in handy time at Ballarat last week. He looks pretty progressive and this is a field devoid of stars. ROSBERG (4) was very brave from the chair when third last Friday night at Melton and got up to run second in that hectic race won by War Zone a week earlier, HIGHVIEW HAMMER (5) has the gate speed to lead and must be a factor from there, while TED BEAR (6) is first-up for the campaign and heads here on the back of a trial on Tuesday where he failed to beat a runner home. BACK: WOTTAWIZARD (7) – 4 units (win)
