SELECTIONS: THE LAST TRIP (7), DON CRUNCH (2), COCOSWORLD (4), AUSSIE JAY MAC (3)
OVERVIEW: THE LAST TRIP (7) appears the lock of the night in this $14,000 final, which follows two rounds of heats. First-up for the Emma Stewart stable and following a year-and-a-half away from the races, the four-year-old found the top and absolutely bolted in the Kilmore qualifier on July 22. His 26.6 last quarter was scintillating and it’s very hard to see him being beaten here. DON CRUNCH (2) was the eye-catcher in the Maryborough heat on July 13 when he came from last to just miss COCOSWORLD (4), who sat parked and did a great job to score. AUSSIE JAY MAC (3) ran well for second to THE LAST TRIP (7) at Kilmore and looks the other obvious player for the back end of trifectas and First 4s.
