RACE COMMENT

OVERVIEW: SO SKEPTICAL (5) produced a performance on debut that was hard to miss, galloping at the start, giving them a big start, only to catch the field and come late to only miss by a metre. She meets a much stronger opposition here, but to the eye when she trotted soundly, she looked pretty smart, so hoping that outing settles her to produce her best. IJUSTCANTSEEIT (4) has already proven her ability in two preparations, winning the Vicbred Homegrown as a 2yo, and even having a crack at the NSW Trotters Oaks as a 3yo. She’s trialled ok into this, and commands respect as the likely favourite and testing material. MAJESTIC YANKEE (7) won two starts ago and defeated the horse who beat the top pick last week, so the form lines are ok. Her manners let her down last time but is worth keeping safe. MINI MIA (1) was a winner from the same draw three runs back and looked to have every hope last time when fancied. She has minor claims from the soft draw. BACK: SO SKEPTICAL (5) – 2.5 units (win)
