RACE COMMENT
OVERVIEW: SAIFA (10) began quickly to lead and was run down on the line in a mile rate of 1.53.8 at Melton two starts ago then didn’t have much luck after commencing from the inside of the second line last outing. He is a quality 4yo pacer when racing at his best form and gets his chance to break through for a win. BROWNIESATMIDNIGHT (4) has won three of his past five starts and tried to trail forward behind the smart mare Sweet Ideal when second in fast time last week. He should be competitive again under these conditions. KWICK SAND (13) is terribly drawn but is racing in career best form with two placed efforts behind the smart mare Jilliby Illuminate followed by a close second in a mile rate of 1.56.3. He has the speed to feature prominently. MAXY WANTS TO PLAY (1) will appreciate his best draw for some time and is worth thought along with OUR SAYDIE KAY (2). EARLY SPEED: 1 (possible leader), 2,3,5 RATINGS: 10/ 4,13/ 1,2/ 3,7,12
