RACE COMMENT
OVERVIEW: FINAL BOW (5) hasn’t been at her best form recently but she is drawn find the lead over the sprint distance and strikes a suitable assignment now so she is worth another chance. HOLD ON FOREVER (10) is racing consistently and will appreciate a drop back in class for this assignment. He was held up for a run at a vital stage and finished off well for fourth at Shepparton last week. ATOMIC GLORY (2) led out then took cover when second behind Pickle It at Cranbourne last outing. He is drawn to gain the position behind the leader again and is worth a ticket each way. CLIVES GIRL (6) settled last on the markers and was held up for a run at a vital stage when fifth (8m) behind Mammals Reason last week. She is capable of sprinting to the line quickly with the right trail forward and rates as a value hope. WHERES WOOD WOOD (9) performs best when she is able to lead so being drawn on the second line is a disadvantage but she is racing too well to dismiss.
