RACE COMMENT
OVERVIEW: SWEETNIKKILOU (10) settled a long way back and did a terrific job to come out very wide and charge past her rivals to win at Melton last outing. She is stepping up in class for this assignment but she is an outstanding filly and should prove hard to beat again. CAPTAIN PINS (6) tried to sustain a long run and hit the lead on the home turn before being gunned down on the line when second at Bendigo then followed with an unplaced effort in the Gunbower Cup. He is a tough competitor and should be competitive against this line up. RAKERO SLAMMER (7) worked very hard in fast time last week so he had excuses. He is racing much better than his form reads and is worth a ticket each way. LETSROCKLETSROLL (3) showed a glimpse of his best form when a fast finishing fifth last week and has claims along with HES CHARLIES ANGEL (1), which will appreciate his best draw for some time. EARLY SPEED: 1 (possible leader), 2,7 RATINGS: 10/ 6,7/ 3/ 1/ 8,9
