RACE COMMENT
OVERVIEW: DELS DESTINY (6) seems to always be running on late in his races without winning but strikes a small field and certainly appears to be going well enough to give this a real shake. He has raced in stronger grade for some time and been beaten less than 10m his last eight starts following a win in similar grade at Ballarat. He’s a safe trotter and it’s hard to see him not going close with the right trip. KENNYS SON (7) did everything right last time and won easily from the front, which followed two races where he made mistakes. It’s likely he will be driven aggressively, and from the front he would be very hard to catch. THATS MY CARDIGAN (5) is another of the gate speed runners who likes to race out in front and has won a couple of races in that role this campaign, while FLOATING MOUNTAIN (1) is certainly a winning chance given he hasn’t been far off the handy The Sky Is The Limit and Group 1 placegetter Hallebesofine in a couple of races in which he found the fence this preparation.
