RACE COMMENT
OVERVIEW: Tricky race to line up with a few first-starters, but BAYSTYLE (2) is an experienced two-year-old with good gate speed who is already a three-time winner this season. He ran well when second to Group 1 Vicbred winner Some High in the heats of that series and was then caught parked and dropped out understandably in the semis. If he can get to the fence, he’s a key player. CASTERTON (6) has had the one trial for a close-up second placing at Ballarat, but there was no vision of that effort. He hails from the powerhouse Emma Stewart barn which produces young horses to win on debut time and time again, so monitor market expectations. LACE AND LEATHER (5) was part of a hot lead time and did a great job to sprint again and score on debut, while stablemate EDGAR BROMAC (3) came from well back in that same race to run third in an encouraging display. Others are worth considering, including DISPERSION (8) who is on debut after a couple of okay trials and NSW visitor PASSION AND PAIN (1), a three-time winner, from gate one.
