RACE COMMENT
OVERVIEW:  STRAIGHT TO THETOP (5) seems well placed under the mobile conditions back to the short trip, as she’s a mare who possesses good early gate speed and is a good chance of crossing to the pegs first here. She was a good winner two runs back under the stand conditions and was sound again last start when well supported. She likes this track and if she does find the top will be hard to catch. JILLIBY TOPGUN (4) is enjoying his best campaign yet, winning 5 from 14. He was a little out of his grade last time and can bounce back here on his home track where he races best and back to a suitable grade. TRIPOD (3) could be a roughie open to improvement, as this is by far the easiest race he’s contested in quite a while. In saying that, he hasn’t won in three years, but he’s worth including considering the class drop and record at this track. KENNYS SON (2) turned in his most indifferent run of his preparation in SA last start, where he didn’t bring his best manners. His form prior was sound and looks set to get the right run. BACK: STRAIGHT TO THETOP (5) – 2 units (win) The odds quoted on the fields page are a GoodForm computer generated price based on a range of key form factors with occasional analyst input and are not necessarily the odds that may be offered by a licenced bookmaker.
