RACE COMMENT
OVERVIEW: ROMANTIC NINA (4) finished off quickly from midfield when a game second behind Ringer Wells last week and is capable of going one better here if she delivers another fool proof display. SKY SPIRIT (6) raced without cover throughout and held on to score over I’m In Style (won impressively since) at his debut. His trial form is very strong and he is capable of taking the next step forward. BOUTIKA (9) gained the perfect trip behind the leader but she extended beautifully in the straight when a runaway winner at Swan Hill last outing. She is racing in peak form and should be hitting the line strongly again. ARISTOTLE (1), YOU GOT ME GOOD (2) and MY HIGH PEAK (3) all have gate speed and have claims in another competitive affair. EARLY SPEED: 2 (likely leader), 1,3,5 RATINGS: 4,6/ 9/ 1,3/ 2/ 8
