SELECTIONS: OLLIES THE BOSS (4), IM DUSTEE (6), KITSUNE (8), FUN TO LOVE (3)
OVERVIEW: OLLIES THE BOSS (4) is a very strong colt, which should go well against this class. He worked out of the gate, took cover and tried hard for a close second behind Strapping Red at Melton last week. He is backing up quickly from contesting a heat of the Super Series last night. IM DUSTEE (6) hasn’t had any luck whatsoever at his most recent city class performances and went to the line jogging with no clear run when ninth behind Golden Tribe last week. He is a versatile pacer and is capable of showing up prominently with a little more luck in running. KITSUNE (8) is resuming since November 2024 but he will be fitter after a recent trial second at Echuca and he was in good form at the end of his last campaign so he must be kept safe. FUN TO LOVE (3) was runner up after trailing the leader last week and is drawn to be close to the speed again. He is worth thought along with the tough campaigner GUNFORHIRE (5).
EARLY SPEED: 4 (likely leader), 3,5,6
RATINGS: 4/ 6,8/ 3/ 5/ 7/ 1,2
