RACE COMMENT
OVERVIEW: LITTLE MISS MORGAN (2) is a talented trotter who is still figuring out her race manners. She was a brilliant third behind superstar mares Gatesys Gem and Jilliby Dreamlover two starts back in the Vicbred Super Series heat. In the Group 1 Final, she hit the line well but was too far back. This is an easier race. ABBIE (7) is second-up here and should improve with fitness after her tough first-up run. She is a smart mare on her day, but she has an awkward barrier. VOLDAGHA (3) is another runner who is second-up here. Last start, he was beaten 14.6 metres behind the smart Muskee, and he should improve with fitness here. CHAMPAGNES (8) is a fast trotting mare who has had a brilliant, career-best 12 months of racing. This would be one of her toughest tests, but she is the only horse on the back row, so she has space to settle early. Also respecting MAJESTIC MONARCH (1) from the barrier. BACK: LITTLE MISS MORGAN (2) – 3 units (win)
