RACE COMMENT
Here we have a 45-49 rated affair and impressive last start winner IDEN KAMAKAZI (1) looks well placed off the pole as can just about hold up and if he does his chances are enhanced. MIKI SANZ (3) had no luck last time when trapped wide so from the draw here he should on speed and from there will keep battling away so ca win. FLO JO CARVALHO (2) is consistent and will be around the mark again so have to include along with I WANT IT ALL (4), SAPPHIRE GAMBLER (8), OUR RUBY ROSE (9) and LALIBELA (10) who are all capable if the breaks come their way in running.TOP PICK: Miki Sanz (3) just lean his way at the better odds.DANGERS: Iden Kamakazi (1) is the danger along with Our Ruby Rose (9).ROUGHIE: Sapphire Gambler (8) has claims at odds.RATINGS: 3-1-2 4 8 9 10-5 6 7 11 12EXOTIC BET: Trifecta 1 3-1 3-2 4 8 9 10 $20 flexi 200% - 1 3-2 4 8 9 10-1 3 $20 flexi 200%LIKELY LEADER: Iden Kamakazi will be loking to hold them out early.
