RACE COMMENT
OVERVIEW: WISH UPONA DREAM (6) had her chance in the St Arnaud Cup but she is meeting her main rivals better with the handicaps here and she is a very honest mare that usually steps away swiftly so she is worth a ticket each way. KYVALLEY HEIST (10) bounced back to winning form when he led throughout in the St Arnaud Cup. He drops back to the handicap of 10m now but he is a very quick beginner and is worth thought again. SUGA DADDY (3) ran along at a genuine tempo when narrowly beaten in a mile rate of 1.56.8 at Melton last week. He switches to the standing start and is rising in distance but he should take catching if he can bounce to the front. BLUE COMAN (9) followed a game win at Globe Derby with a fourth in the Swan Hill Cup and a sixth in the St Arnaud Cup. He is suited under these conditions and must be considered as one of the leading chances. EL RESAMO (11) is the class runner of the field and will take beating if he can get away cleanly but he is a risky beginner from the standing start. EARLY SPEED: 3 (possible leader), 2,6 RATINGS: 6,10/ 3/ 7,9,11/ 1
