RACE COMMENT
OVERVIEW: This looks to be a competitive race with a number of good chances. NORMANDY NUGGET (5) has a great turn of foot and enough gate speed to map well here. He sustained a good run for third at this track last start in rain-affected conditions and is racing well. FAKE CULLECTION (8) led and tired a little late when first-up. She won well at her start prior to going for a break and should improve with fitness. With the right run, she can be flashing home late. ICANMOTOR (7) is racing well and flashed home nicely for second at this track last start. He’ll need some luck from the barrier. IMAGUNNARESTNGO (3) can be quirky at times, but she has a solid turn of foot with the right run. She’ll need to map well to be a threat late. Also respecting BLUE OCEAN (1) from the ace barrier. BACK: NORMANDY NUGGET (5) – 2 units (win)
