RACE COMMENT
OVERVIEW: ZANDA MAN (7) finished last campaign with a string of good efforts in strong company, including a couple of Saturday night wins at Melton. He returned from a break with a midfield finish in a heat of the Vicbred Super Series at Kilmore late last month, and while well beaten, it was a nice effort from off the fence. The draw is sticky, but he’s quite progressive and might be the class runner in this clash. CAPTAIN PINS (8) returned from a spell with a big win at Charlton and another good closing effort from last for sixth at Melton, while WHERE IS WOODY (1) was a great winner from three back the fence last time at Maryborough and might land a position closer here behind likely early leader PISTOL PEARCE (2), who was a bit outclassed last time but had been running well prior and maps for a good trip. Others to consider are ISOLATION (4), who trialled well for his return with a soft recent win at Melton, and TARA VICTORY (6), who won an easier race at Shepparton on September 1.
