RACE COMMENT
OVERVIEW: LADY VICI (8) galloped away at her debut and remains undefeated in six starts since. She produced an outstanding performance at her first run since April 2024 to run down Alrighty in a sizzling mile rate of 1.56.2 at Melton on July 26 so she should prove hard to beat. KYVALLEY MAVEN (3) is a classy 4yo trotter that won impressively at Bendigo last outing. He is very versatile and should make his presence felt. MORE WANTED (9) led out then took cover and finished third behind Nephew of Sonoko last outing. He settled midfield and finished off well for a close second behind Sebastians Boy at Melton two starts ago and he deserves to break through for a win. PICKET WIRE (1) trailed the leader and used the sprint lane when a close second behind Worth Waiting last week. She is drawn to receive a similar trip and is worth thought again. EL RESAMO (5) performs best when he is able to lead and is worth thought from the front line and A TRUE STORY (6) galloped when looking a chance on the home turn last week. EARLY SPEED: 5 (possible leader), 1,2,7 RATINGS: 8/ 3/ 9/ 1,5,6/ 11
