RACE COMMENT
OVERVIEW: KEAYANG PAYTON (9) honest filly that ran on well late last start and expect a similar showing here. JETTER SON (5) showed good ability last campaign and is trialling well. Expect a forward showing first up here. MICHEN ROY (3) can improve on recent starts and should take up a forward position. One of the main chances here. SUNSTAR (10) will find this easier than last start and form prior was solid. Must be respected. HERNIE (4) is always in the mix of chances and must be respected here. SHE REALLY MATTERS (8) was in the market last start but didn’t fire. Capable of much better. Worthy of another chance. TERROR EYES (7) will strip fitter for his first up run and can improve. IM STUCK MAN (1) and MAJOR ASSASSIN (2) have drawn well and have place and first four claims. LILS NIGHTMARE (6) is a first four hope. EARLY SPEED: 3,4,5 RATINGS: 9/ 5/ 3/ 10/ 4/ 8/ 7/ 1/ 2/ 6
