SELECTIONS: FIGHTER COMMAND (2), SIR JIMMY (6), OUR SUNSET DELIGHT (3), BULLETPROOF BOY (10)
OVERVIEW: FIGHTER COMMAND (2) has been awesome coming from off speed to win in two of three runs since returning from an Inter Dominion campaign in Queensland, where he claimed a heat and finished midfield in the final. He’s a horse right at the top of his game at the moment, and he’s the horse they have to beat. SIR JIMMY (6) was good from four back the fence in the Geelong Cup last weekend, beat all bar Catch A Wave prior and is going very well this campaign, OUR SUNSET DELIGHT (3) brings NSW form to Victoria but it’s very good in weaker grade, while BULLETPROOF BOY (10) won a third Smoken Up Sprint by beating Leap To Fame at huge odds in this race last year, and while he was very plain in the Geelong Cup last weekend from the fence, he’s too good to not give another chance.
