RACE COMMENT
OVERVIEW: MATTYO (4) worked to the front and won comfortably at Stawell then did all of the work in the run and battled on bravely for a close second behind the in-form trotter Blackrange Glory at Hamilton. He is racing in peak form and will prove hard to beat under these conditions. BEAUTIFUL SUNRISE (5) gained a nice trail and finished off best to score over Fling It Rainbow at Bendigo last outing. Her overall form is strong and this race is no harder so she should be competitive again. APEX (2) was resuming since October when he began quickly to lead from a wide draw and fought on well for second at Charlton. He led out then took cover and was held up for a run before the home turn when fifth behind Ringer Wells at Bendigo last week. He should find the markers shortly after the start again this evening so he is worth a ticket each way. SHADOW JUSTICE (8) and AGAINST THE BRIDLE (10) are both racing well enough to figure in the finish. EARLY SPEED: 2 (likely early leader), 4 RATINGS: 4/ 2,5/ 8,10
