SELECTIONS: FICTION FILE (5), CALEDONIAN RANGER (4), JANIEBQUICK (7), MONSIEUR FLAMEL (3)
OVERVIEW: With LOWRIDER (6) out scratched, this race opens right up. FICTION FILE (5) struggles to win but often runs well and did just that when second in a race three of these contested at Ballarat last week. She got home in a pretty quick last half for this grade – as she did in the two runs prior – and James Herbertson might press forward in a bid to dictate the race. Looks ready to win. CALEDONIAN RANGER (4) hasn’t raced since a narrow second in the Warragul Pacing Cup Final and might have the speed to cross down to the pegs here. From there, he might prove really hard to beat. The in-form JANIEBQUICK (7) got her well-deserved victory last Friday from a good draw at Melton but this is harder from wide on the front row, while MONSIEUR FLAMEL (3) and JILLIBY KYMY LOU (2) were third and fourth respectively in the race FICTION FILE (5) ran second in at Ballarat and are the other chances.
BACK: FICTION FILE (5) – 3 units (win)
