RACE COMMENT
  OVERVIEW: OHEMMJAY CRESCO (12) will appreciate a significant drop back in class for this assignment and is strong enough to overcome the poor draw. He led throughout in a mile rate of 1.58.5 when he scored at Shepparton on April 08, which is a good form reference for this event. BLUE OCEAN (10) has been placed in three of his past four starts and he is more versatile than most competing in this event so he is worth an investment. CRAFTY OLD FOX (3) usually performs best when he is able to lead out then take cover so he is perfectly drawn to suit his racing pattern. She finished third behind Where’s Wood Wood at Shepparton on May 04. BERYLS GRIN (4) is working back into some form and has claims along with ALLHEARTNOHEIGHT (7) and JOEYS HANGOVER (8).   EARLY SPEED: 6 (likely leader), 1,3,7 RATINGS: 12/ 3,10/ 4,7,8/ field
