RACE COMMENT
OVERVIEW: DRESSED IN GOLD (10) brings strong formlines to this race, with a good third to the talented Lambro Mach last time despite being parked and a front-running second in a similar 0W/15.0K stake event when nailed late by Keayang Payton with a good margin back to third. He’s narrowly fancied in a wide-open race where there’s a few key winning chances. ROCKELLA (8) sat parked for the last lap and did a great job to win narrowly in a slick 55.9 last half at Ballarat on August 19, KATUNGA EXPRESS (7) charged late to only be beaten 3.8m at Wagga last week and hit the line similarly well at Melton when third prior to that, while BETTOR PUNTER (4) looks pretty progressive and backed up his good wins at Cranbourne and Melton with strong placings at Kilmore and Ballarat.
