RACE COMMENT
OVERVIEW: Looks a genuine match race here between heat and semi-final winners KAHULA (5) and IDEAL FRANKIE (12). Both have claimed big feature races already this season and are looking for Group 1 glory to cap their outstanding two-year-old campaigns. The barrier draw was crucial, and given the front row advantage to KAHULA (5), she’s likely to work forward and find the front. She’s narrowly favoured, but don’t be surprised if IDEAL FRANKIE (12) is good enough to run her down. They look the quinella. Outside those, LA CANTATRICE (9) has been a whole lot of fun for the Ballarat & District Trotting Club Standardbred Group this campaign with three wins and a good closing second to KAHULA (5) in the semi-final, while DECOUPAGE (2) showed electric gate speed in the heat and might be able to find the top and hand up to KAHULA (5). Another at odds worth considering on a place line is HEAVENLY GEM (10), who was trapped parked and did a massive job to still run second behind IDEAL FRANKIE (12) last weekend.
