RACE COMMENT
OVERVIEW: BLAZIN BY (4) won first-up this campaign and has run a couple of great races in defeat since then. Last time, he ripped home in a slick last half at Ballarat to just miss Posterized in a photo and before that was only beaten 4.6m at Kilmore by Owen The Saints, who has won again since. Happy in his corner. WEONA OUR RIGHTS (2) was outclassed in a heat of the Vicbred series but has run good placings in his other three starts this campaign and draws gate one if the emergency fails to gain a start, GIVE FRED A CLAP (7) did plenty wrong at Shepparton last time but still got up to win and is a factor despite the wide gate, while TED BEAR (3) closed off nicely from back in the field to win an easier race at Ballarat last week and heads a few others that could prevail without completely surprising such as OUR BELLA LUCIA (5), ALL THINGS SPICY (6) and LENARD ESS (8).  BACK: BLAZIN BY (4) – 1 unit (win)
