RACE COMMENT

OVERVIEW: DEECODE (4) is resuming since a second at Terang in March but he has performed well at the trials and should take beating. He recorded a slick mile rate of 1.55.7 when he recorded a runaway victory at Hamilton at his second career attempt and he makes his debut for trainer Chris Svanosio. ALOT LIKE JEANNIE (9) was resuming since a win at Shepparton in May when she won comfortably after leading throughout at Cranbourne last week. She is a smart filly and should make her presence felt again. CRACKIN PHILTRA (3) is stepping up in class from his latest Bendigo victory but he finished off fast in slick final sectionals so he appears to be capable of taking the next step forward. THE GOLDEN HOOK (8) is capable of sprinting to the line quickly with the right trail forward and is worth an investment from his trailing draw. BACK: DEECODE (4) – 1.5 units (each way)
