RACE COMMENT
OVERVIEW: DISTANT SUN (9) looks to strike a very suitable 0-55 grade event where he draws nicely on the back row. Last time at Shepparton, he came with a wide run in the last lap, and while well beaten by Centurion Dream, he held a big margin back to third. That horse won last Saturday night at Melton, so the form stacks up. He was actually only beaten in a photo for second and third by that same horse two runs prior when 2.5m behind the in-form Karbine, who has also won again since. Happily on top. MUSCLE VALLEY (7) was a good runner-up behind Itz Classic Gold two back and was competitive in a strong Need For Speed Prince heat last time out, CONSTANT (5) is always running home strongly in her races and is a major contender with the right trip, while stablemate DANCE FIGHTER (1) has been outclassed her past couple but did start a $2 favourite prior to that and can be a factor from the good draw. BACK: DISTANT SUN (9) – 2 units (win)
