RACE COMMENT
OVERVIEW: SPEEDY HEALEY (10) racing with great zest and aiming for five wins in a row. Will be running on strongly and no reason why he can’t win again. VILLAROCK (5) placed last start and appears suited here, expect a strong showing. PISTOL PEARCE (4) is better than his figure form reads and can improve here. Must include. BEST BACK BRUCE (6) races well in this class and best form has been over the sprint trip. Can figure in the finish. THE VILLAIN (8) MIDNIGHT MOJO (7) and WRITTEN IN SILK (9) all have ability and are amongst the chances with suitable trips here. EARLY SPEED: 3,4,5 RATINGS: 10/ 5/ 4/ 6/ 8/ 7/ 9
