RACE COMMENT
OVERVIEW: CHAMPAGNE CHARLEY (10) was resuming since February when he finished off solidly for a close second at Kilmore. He faces a big handicap but he should be fitter and he is a proven winner from the standing start so he warrants respect. KAMARAN (9) can make mistakes occasionally but he is a smart horse when he can put it altogether. He pushed around the field mid-race to park without cover from the 900m when a game second behind Majestic Tooth in a mile rate of 1.57.7 at his latest appearance. BOUTIKA (7) is stepping up in class but is racing in career best form and broke the track record when she won at Ararat two starts ago so she cannot be underestimated. WATCH AND ACT (8) is a quick beginner and boasts a handy standing start record so he rates as a value hope. CONNIES PRESIDENT (5) and POPPY POPSTAR (6) are both capable of showing up without surprising.
