RACE COMMENT
OVERVIEW: THE IRISHMAN (1) led throughout to win easily at Globe Derby on Monday. He is perfectly drawn for his Mildura debut and will prove hard to beat again. SPRING DELIGHT (8) led throughout to win by a large margin at Mildura two starts ago then followed with a strong third behind Cruz With Rome. He is racing in good form and this race is no harder so he must be respected. SNEAKY PHILTRA (5) endured a tough run and went down narrowly at Mildura two starts ago then followed with a sixth behind Cruz With Rome. She is a versatile mare and is worth an investment. ORAMA (6), GRENADE (7) and GLITZY ALL OVER (9) are all racing well enough to feature prominently. EARLY SPEED: 1 (likely leader), 5,6 RATINGS: 1/ 8/ 5,7/ 6,9
