SELECTIONS: JUSTALITTLESIP (9), JACKS ULTIMATE FURY (7), SOAP AND BUBBLES (1), SWEET IDEAL (3)
OVERVIEW: JUSTALITTLESIP (9) has been going really well this campaign, but has either been slightly outclassed or poorly draw. That appears to change here, and he is certainly up to winning a 0-105 event from the nice trailing draw in a race where the tempo looks genuine with many winning hopes. His form around Bulletproof Boy and My Ultimate Barney reads really well and he might come up each-way odds. The progressive JACKS ULTIMATE FURY (7) is a winner of 12 from 20 and resumed from a break in dominant fashion at Wagga on May 8, SOAP AND BUBBLES (1) is the lowest-rated horse but gets the good draw as a result and possesses a very quick sprint, while SWEET IDEAL (3) did incredibly well to get so close when last at the bell and wide through the last lap first-up on Saturday. She can win, as can others like METEOR MOTH (10) and OUR LUCIANO (8).
