RACE COMMENT
This is for the 40-44 rated pacers where MY MATE LUKE (1) will be looking to go back to back and from the pole gets every chance to do so. ROLLIN MARY (2) had her chance last time but give another chance as draws to be close to the speed throughout. SAPPHIRE GAMBLER (6) is the value play as can push forward and settle close enough to get his chance late. HERES HENRY (4), I WANT IT ALL (5), STAROFREMBERANCE (7) and LALIBELA (8) are a quartet to include for the wider exotic placings.TOP PICK: Sapphire Gambler (6) looks a good play.DANGERS: My Mate Luke (1) is the danger along with Rollin Mary (2).ROUGHIE: Starofremberance (7) wouldn’t shock if the breaks come her way.RATINGS: 6-1 2 4 5 7 8-3 9-10EXOTIC BET: Boxed trifecta 1 2 4 6 7 8 $40 flexi 33%LIKELY LEADER: Heres Henry and Sapphire Gambler could chance their arm early.
