RACE COMMENT
OVERVIEW: Stack of chances here but I was awfully keen MY UNCLE STAN (3) last start at Geelong and he produced a good effort to dead-heat with Blake Bolac. Before that, he ran an absolute bottler from the rear for fourth in a race a few of these contested, which followed a good second to the smart I Am The Storm. He should get to the fence here and that will make him a serious contender. LOUGLE (9) drops back from free-for-all grade where he finished just 9.2m behind Catch A Wave with limited room in the straight last weekend and his prior form is very strong, ISOLATION (5) is airborne this campaign with two dominant wins in easier grade leading into this, while WORDS (11) also ran well behind Catch A Wave last week and will be storming late if the tempo is on. JACKKA EVAN (8) has won both races since arriving from New Zealand and is a factor, while stablemate CLYMENUS (7) looks ready to win but has a horror draw for this assignment.
