RACE COMMENT
OVERVIEW: SANTA CASA BEACH (2) was severely checked on the home turn and lost his chance when resuming since June. All of his best performances have been when he is able to lead so he is perfectly drawn to suit his racing pattern and an improved effort is expected. HOT DEAL (7) was caught wide early and was forced to restrain to a rearward position so he had little luck at his latest fifth. He boasts a strong record at Mildura and is versatile so he must be included amongst the leading chances. MAXY WANTS TO PLAY (6) ran a game race for second behind Forty Love at Mildura three starts ago then followed with a fourth at Terang. He was in a reasonable position and was severely checked on the home turn at Swan Hill last time out so he is worth another chance. The Julie Douglas trained pair OUR VINCENT CAN GOGH (4) and EARL OF PEMBROKE (5) have had a few chances recently but they are dropping back in class and appear to be better placed under these conditions. BACK: SANTA CASA BEACH (2) – 1 unit (each way)
