RACE COMMENT
OVERVIEW: ALDEBARAN DENBAY (5) is aiming for a hat-trick here, after bringing his best manners his past couple and showing his ability for the new stable. He was a winner two back when coming with one run, then was able to lead all the way last time out from a similar draw. If he brings that form, he’s clearly the one to beat. THE CHOOK (6) was runner-up in that race and found the line well, driven cold. She is a four-time winner at this track and can slide across with them and map within striking distance. CADENCE LANE (9) turned in a nice effort last time for a third, and Herbertson goes aboard with a potentially soft enough map to be given her chance to find the line well. I AM HARRO (7) faces a challenge from the wide draw, but his past few runs have had merit and, if the map works out, is in the mix again. Minor chances go to BET BET HOTSHOT (1), STARLIGHT RED (2) and HOLD THAT MAGIC (11), who are all capable of improvement with the right runs. BACK: ALDEBARAN DENBAY (5) – 1.5 units (win)
