RACE COMMENT
OVERVIEW: BUSLIN BRODY (3) has been racing well without winning recently. He ran a good second at Melton last start, letting down strongly late. If he can find a forward position, he is a good chance here. THE ITALIAN DREAM (2) is a smart mare who is always flying home late. Her turn of foot is impressive. POPPY POPSTAR (6) was a good winner at Maryborough last start after racing in the breeze. Another tricky barrier makes things harder, but she can make her own luck. JACKIES GIFT (5) broke the track record for the middle-distance trip at Echuca three starts ago and remains in great form. Also noting MAJESTIC MONARCH (10), who is first up for Graham Lyon and has not been seen for more than a year, but has ability.
