SELECTIONS: GALAXY LASS (9), JUST AS WELL (8), SOHO HUDSON (1), THE VILLAIN (5)
OVERVIEW: GALAXY LASS (9) drops sharply in grade after racing against much stronger company and performing well. Despite the back-row draw over the short trip, there appears enough early pressure for her to work into the race at the right time and finish strongly.
JUST AS WELL (8) also looks well placed with the mares’ allowance and although she prefers using her speed from the front row, this race could set up nicely for one late run if the gaps appear. SOHO HUDSON (1) must be kept safe as his runs since returning to Victoria, when he has behaved, have been good. His manners remain a slight concern, but there’s ability there. THE VILLAIN (5) has gate speed and deserves consideration at his home track, particularly with the stable in good form this season.
BACK: GALAXY LASS (9) - 3 units
