RACE COMMENT
OVERVIEW: AGAINST THE BRIDLE (7) turned in a career-best run last time at his 100th start at Kilmore, running a peak mile rate and winning by 32 metres with an aggressive drive that saw him take the lead mid-race and run along. Surprisingly, that was only regular stable driver James Herbertson’s second drive on him. There may be a few looking for the top spot here, but none can put down similar times, and if he can back up that performance, he will be very hard to beat. I AM HARRO (8) can mix his form, but his best keeps him in the hunt here. He was a good winner five runs ago at Bendigo, where he came from back in the field. His last couple have been below par but he can bounce back against suitable opposition. ALDEBARAN MARCUS (9) has been sound in his past few runs and loomed up strongly last start before just peaking late. If the speed is on, it could help him work into it. Outside of those, it will come down to who gets the best run for the third/fourth spots, with KALARNEY PRINCE (6) and JESSICAS STORY (10) heading those chances. BACK: AGAINST THE BRIDLE (7) – 4 units (win)
