RACE COMMENT
OVERVIEW: WAR DAN BUDDY (9) is searching for three straight victories and is a big chance of completing the task. He recorded a slick mile of 1.50.5 at Menangle then finished off best in his Melton victory on August 16. DANGEROUS (8) is resuming since a second in the Charlton Cup in March but he has been performing extremely well at the trials and should make his presence felt. He finished fifth in the Sydney Inter Dominion Final back in December so he has the class to test this field. HES FROM HEAVEN (5) is a versatile pacer, which continues to race consistently against this class. He was finishing off quickly when third behind WAR DAN BUDDY (9) at Melton last outing. ULTIMATE VINNIE (3) performs best when he is able to lead so he is perfectly drawn while BETTOR ISOLATE (6) and WESTERN SONADOR (7) are both capable of sprinting to the line quickly with the right trail forward. EARLY SPEED: 3 (possible leader), 4 RATINGS: 8,9/ 5/ 3,6,7
