RACE COMMENT
OVERVIEW: DEREK THE JET (3) continues to build on his outstanding record and is shooting for nine straight victories. He began quickly to lead and easily won his Prelude of this series so he is clearly the horse to beat again. KYVALLEY MICHAEL (4) was the run of the race outside of DEREK THE JET (3) in his Prelude performance and is a good chance of finishing second again. He settled four back on the markers and chased hard in the latter stages, working past both REMUS PHOENIX (2) and THUNDA STRUCK (6). REMUS PHOENIX (2) won the Super Series Bronze event two starts ago and is a place hope along with THUNDA STRUCK (6), which was placed from the pole position in the Prelude last week. EARLY SPEED: 3 (likely leader), 2 RATINGS: 3/ 4/ 2,6/ 1,5
