RACE COMMENT
OVERVIEW: This is a nice event with plenty of progressive performers. ALECTRONA (5) is a lightly raced trotter who is putting it all together nicely and has strung some strong performances together recently. She was a clear third last start behind the smart No Money No Honey in the Vicbred Super Series Silver. She’s getting better with each run and finds a suitable race here. TRUSCOTTS ELEGANCE (7) has been impressive with some nice performances in her recent Vicbred Super Series starts, including a solid fourth in the Group 1 Final last start. She is a high-speed trotter who can be competitive with the right run. PURPLE MOON (10) was outstanding last start. She galloped out of contention, caught the field and still managed to storm home into second. She faces a tough barrier here, but she’s racing well. JILLIBY RADIANCE (6) is a smart filly who is still figuring out what racing is all about. She raced well last start but got too keen when leading and still battled on well. With some luck and better manners, she’s a winning chance. I also have a lot of respect for CALLINAN (2), who is a tough horse and should map well here. BACK: ALECTRONA (5) – 2 units (win)
