RACE COMMENT
OVERVIEW: ALDEBARAN ANTON (8) is racing in peak form having won his past two starts and despite coming off a 20metre handicap expect a big showing. NIGHT WHISPERER (7) runner up at his past three starts and bursting to win. Gets another chance here and looks a threat. APEX (9) consistent trotter that continues to race well and despite facing the back mark handicap must be respected again. MATTYO (6) going well and the form line is solid. Definite chance. SURPRISE TO ME (4) is never far away under these conditions and can’t be dismissed. JESSICAS STORY (5) CHARLIE WALKER (3) and MONTANA MUSCLE (1) are amongst the chances. EARLY SPEED: 1.2.3 RATINGS: 8. 7. 9/ 6/ 4/ 5/ 3/ 1
