RACE COMMENT
OVERVIEW: MERCENARY (9) was going to win the Charlton Cup but switched into a pace with 150m remaining and was subsequently disqualified. He was held up behind the tiring leader and finished fast when he eventually gained a clear passage at his latest fourth so he is racing much better than his form reads. LITTLE YANKEE (7) continues to race consistently and finished off nicely for third behind Watts Up Partytime last outing. He found the line strongly when third in the Charlton Cup prior so he is worth following. PINNIE (3) performed below expectations at her first run since finishing third in the Victoria Derby but she should be fitter from that effort and is worth another chance. EL RESAMO (2) couldn’t lead early and had excuses when fifth at Melton last week. He gave a great sight in the front running role when second prior so he is worth thought from his good draw. EARLY SPEED: 2 (likely leader), 3,4 RATINGS: 9/ 3,7/ 2/ 4,5/ 11
