RACE COMMENT

OVERVIEW: OZZIE JOYBELL (8) was held up for a run at a vital stage and finished off well for sixth (7m) behind Pete Mitchell last week. This is a drop back in class and she will be hard to hold out in the run to the finish. BET SHEZA LADY (9) is returning from a Tasmanian campaign, where she was runner up in all of her three starts. She has the perfect trailing draw and should be finishing off strongly. FINAL BOW (3) has won eight races for the season and possesses the necessary early speed to obtain a forward position in the early stages of the event. She recorded a career best mile rate of 1.56.4 when she scored at Shepparton on October 15. BETTORSWEETVICTORY (7) is working back into some form and rates as a value hope. EARLY SPEED: 3 (likely leader), 2,5 RATINGS: 8,9/ 3/ 7/ 1,2,5
