RACE COMMENT
OVERVIEW: The horses drawn on the second line appear to be well graded based on the National Ratings system but they will be giving the leaders a start over the sprint distance. STARZZZ DESTINY (9) worked very hard to find the lead early and had excuses at his latest seventh. His form prior was strong so he is worth another chance. JUDES DUDE (7) has struck peak form having had four wins and two seconds from his past six starts. He moved up without cover and proved to be too strong last outing so he is worth thought again. CAPTAIN MAASTRICHT (10) is better suited when he is drawn on the front line, where he can utilize his gate speed but he is a short course specialist and was impressive last week so he cannot be left out of calculations. IM A DENNY TOO (3) is working up to a win having been placed in three of his past four starts and he has the early speed to be prominent throughout. EARLY SPEED: 2 (possible leader), 1,3,5,7 RATINGS: 7,9/ 10/ 3,8/ 2,5
