RACE SIX
EL MAJOR (6) took the trail from gate 2 after finding the pegs 1st over the 2138m trip here 2 starts back and was game to the line when a half-neck from the winner ROCK WITH SAM. He found the line in good order last start when 3.5m from the winner and in an open contest looks worth a chance.
DRIVE THE DREAM (7) has no luck from the car-park gate, but her latest start was a much sharper effort. Starting from the 2nd line she was closing strongly to get within a half-neck of the winner GOD SAKE. Her previous start had merit when buried in the run and with even luck in transit can feature.
CORPORAL LUNA (4) held the front early before releasing last start and holding on for the silver to MY MASTRERCRAFTSMAN. Effective late, he can find a handy position and can chime in to this.
YANKEE STRUTTER (1) hasn’t been suited his past 2 when restraining and finding himself too far back to work into the contest. With the improved gate and good early speed he can improve.
SELECTIONS: EL MAJOR (6), DRIVE THE DREAM (7), CORPORAL LUNA (4), YANKEE STRUTTER (1)
SUGGESTED BET: EL MAJOR (6) to win
