RACE COMMENT
OVERVIEW: THE LADYBIRD (3) has been racing well in the South-East and will find this race to be easier. She has won at Mildura previously and is drawn to gain a trail just behind the leaders so she is worth an investment. THE DEVIL ROLLS ON (1) will appreciate his best draw for a long time and didn’t enjoy the best of luck when fifth behind Sneaky Philtra last week. He is better than his numerical form suggests and is a possible improver. DAYLIGHT (8) gained a nice trail and finished off best to win clearly at Mildura on July 17 then finished off well for second behind the in-form mare Sneaky Philtra last week. She has struck peak form and should be finishing off strongly. DIAMOND KRUSHER (2) ran her best race for a long time when she began quickly to find the lead, kicked clear on the turn and was run down at the end on Friday afternoon. She is drawn to find the lead again so she has claims in an open race.
