RACE COMMENT
The last of the night is for the up to 49 rated pacers. HAY MIKI (2) looks suited in this line up from the draw as should be on speed throughout and can out tough his rivals in the run to the line. SAPPHIRE GAMBLER (6) continues to hold his form and is always a chance in these types of races. LAID BACK KENNY (9) has a good trailing draw and should be fitter enough now to run a race so keep safe. AURORA REASON (12) will find this easier and despite drawing out the back can figure if the breaks come his way. A GOOD RED (1), ONLINE MODEL (4), COLBY ART (7) and CINOCAL JAMANE (10) are a quartet to throw in for the wider exotic placings.TOP PICK: Hay Miki (2) is the they have to beat.DANGERS: Sapphire Gambler (6) is a danger along with Aurora Reason (12).ROUGHIE: Laid Back Kenny (9) is the value play.RATINGS: 2-6 9 12-1 4 7 10-3 5 8 11EXOTIC BET: Trifecta 2-1 4 6 7 9 10 12-1 4 6 7 9 10 12 $21 flexi 50%LIKELY LEADER: Hay Miki will look to work to the lead.
