RACE ONE
After starting from gate 9 last time out and settled back in the pack, FRANCO NANDOR (8) was the best of the chasers to grab 2nd behind the dictating winner GENERAL MONTANA. Using the passing lane for 3rd two starts back when he just needed stronger momentum, he can be ready to strike.
SCOTCH EN ICE (3) has copped a second line gate at his past four in succession, the latest when also striking some trouble in the run and finishing at the rear behind ONE BIG SHEW. Strong to the line two starts back when midfield and 7m from HEZ DUSTY, the improved gate is a huge help.
MISTERY ROAD (6) faced gate 5 last start and was soon snagged to the rear and with it all in front of him at the bell. Making some nice metres in the closing stages against the tempo, he can feature.
GLENLEDI COMMANDER (1) should appreciate the improved gate after some tough alleys in recent starts. Asked to graft it out first over last start, he has the speed to make them chase.
SELECTIONS: FRANCO NANDOR (8), SCOTCH EN ICE (3), MISTERY ROAD (6), GLENLEDI COMMANDER (1)
