RACE COMMENT
OVERVIEW: JILLIBY AURA (2) was a Nutrien final winner as a two-year-old and presents here first-up from a third placing in the three-year-old decider of that series at Wagga in May. She was narrowly beaten as favourite in the Group 1 NSW Trotters Oaks before that and probably has the speed to find the front. She’s the one to beat. HARPERSEVEN (3) won the Group 1 Vicbred Super Series final last season at massive odds and ran a solid third first-up at Melton on August 21. She’s the other class runner of the field on exposed form. MAJESTIC YANKEE (7) and SO SKEPTICAL (9) ran first and second respectively in the Shepparton Trotters Oaks last time out, and while they might not have the ability of the top two selections, are certainly talented and can threaten with the right run. The first-up ZOOLU (5) looks the other key player as a three-time winner from 10 starts.
