RACE COMMENT
OVERVIEW: MAJESTIC MONARCH (8) caught the eye with a good third behind BUSLIN BRODY (5) first-up after more than a year away from the races at Kilmore on August 13, then was backed off the map before leading and turning the tables on that horse with a dominant victory at the same track last week. Harder here from the back row, but he looks very tough to hold out based off that recent effort. The old boy BUSLIN BRODY (5) is in great form and has obvious claims given he beat the on-top selection and ran well from the back of the field subsequent to that, SHAQ THE ANVIL (2) led and defeated Joe Lou in easier grade at Ballarat last week and that horse has won again since, and while STRAIGHT TO THETOP (4) was a little disappointing from behind the leader at Shepparton on Tuesday, she was only beaten by a neck to BUSLIN BRODY (5) in that recent race and had won prior to that. She looks a chance of finding the front and would be a major player if she found it. BACK: MAJESTIC MONARCH (8) – 2 units (win)
