RACE COMMENT
OVERVIEW: OLLIES THE BOSS (2) has been all around the winner’s stall this campaign without setting foot in it, and if he’s able to work to the front here over the 1720m, he gets a good chance to break through. He’s run six placings from seven starts this preparation and heads into this race on the back of a 5.1m defeat in a strong race at Melton last Saturday night. FIRE MARSHALL (1) didn’t do much first-up from a break here at Melton on August 21, but barrier one makes his life much easier and he ran some good races last campaign. EYE WISH (3) won the rich Nutrien series final for three-year-old fillies in late May and heads here first-up from a freshen. She also placed third in a Group 2 Gold Bracelet during March and is very classy, but this is a step-up against seasoned horses and the opposite sex. IMA TERMINATOR (8) is going along okay and is among a few others that could prevail with the right trip such as KOSIMO (9), CLYMENUS (10) and impressive first-up Charlton winner CAPTAIN PINS (6).
