RACE COMMENT
OVERVIEW: KYVALLEY MAVEN (12) settled in the second half of the field, circled around to park without cover and battled on fairly well for fifth last outing. He endured a tough run and scored easily at Bendigo three starts back so he is worth another chance. IMPERIAL COMMAND (6) finished off best to score in a sizzling mile rate of 1.56.6 at Melton two starts ago. He couldn’t work into the race from a rearward position last week but he possesses gate speed so the move to the front line is a definite advantage. CALL ME JACK (5) is resuming since June but he possesses a powerful finishing burst and has been racing well at the trials so he warrants respect. KYVALLEYHONEYBUNNY (11) is awkwardly drawn but she finished second after leading out then taking cover behind Our Marvella last week so she is worth an investment. EARLY SPEED: 6 (possible leader), 1,3,4 RATINGS: 6,12/ 5/ 11/ 10/ 1,2/ 4
