RACE COMMENT

OVERVIEW: MAGELLAN (6) pushed forward to find the front and was run down in the last stride when second at Stawell then followed with a fifth at Horsham, where she raced without cover throughout. She is worth thought under these conditions. IMEASYCOMEEASYGO (1) led out then took cover and made ground in the straight when a narrow second at his debut. He is perfectly drawn and is capable of going one better here. DEVEREAUX (2) is resuming since a very unlucky second at Mount Gambier on debut where he broke stride at the 1300m and chased hard in the last lap. This is a stronger field but he must be kept safe. EL LAZZAR (4) scored at Charlton two starts ago after he pushed forward to find the lead shortly after the start. He is worth thought from his good draw and OUT TO STAY (7) has been below his best in three starts back from a spell but would take beating at his best form. BACK: MAGELLAN (6) – 1 unit (each way)
