RACE COMMENT
OVERVIEW: LORIMERMAJOR (11) used plenty of energy at the start to hold a forward position and ended up being behind the leader when seventh behind Frugal Fare at Melton last week. His form prior was strong and he is dropping back into a more suitable grade now so he is worth an investment. INTERPRETATION (6) is a speedy pacer and finished third behind the smart 3yo Apollostorm in a slick mile rate of 1.53.7 last week so he rates as a value hope. IMA CHARMA (3) is a fast beginner and led throughout to win at Melton when resuming. He followed with a second at Cranbourne last week and should be prominent throughout under these conditions. MONSIEUR FLAMEL (2) is perfectly drawn to suit his racing pattern and is not without a chance. EARLY SPEED: 2 (possible leader), 3,4 RATINGS: 11/ 3,6/ 2/ 1,4,12,13
