RACE COMMENT
OVERVIEW: CAPTAIN MAASTRICHT (8) has been racing in outstanding form and blitzed his rivals by over twenty metres in a mile rate of 1.54.5 last outing so he should prove hard to beat again. TWISTING BY (2) finished off fast to win the Super Series Silver event two starts ago then had no clear run and went to the line with plenty in reserve at his latest unlucky sixth. He is nicely drawn and looms as one of the leading chances. STARZZZ DESTINY (5) was doing his best work late when second behind CAPTAIN MAASTRICHT (8) two starts ago then finished fourth in a strong field at his latest attempt. He is racing well and should go well again. PABLO ROCKS (4) trailed the leader and used the sprint lane when he scored at Melton three starts ago and he battled on strongly for third at Kilmore last time out. This race is no harder and he should be competitive again. EARLY SPEED: 3 (possible leader), 1,6 RATINGS: 8/ 2/ 4,5/ 3,6
