RACE COMMENT
OVERVIEW: It is an open race with many winning chances. ODIN (9) is racing consistently and attempted to lead throughout when a close third behind Look Like Diamonds at Melton last outing so he gets the nod. MAXY WANTS TO PLAY (8) beat easier grade at Mildura last outing but he is drawn behind the likely leader so he rates as a value hope. SNOW HUNTER (1) is a fast beginner and is perfectly drawn to suit her racing pattern so she is not without a chance. MOMENTUM SHIFT (13) charged home from a rearward position when an eye-catching third last week and is worth thought despite the poor draw. ROSBERG (5), ALL BLAZING GUNS (6) and KEAYANG TACO (12) all have the ability to show up prominently. EARLY SPEED: 1 (likely leader), 2,3,6 RATINGS: 9/ 1,8,13/ 6,12/ 5/ FIELD
