OVERVIEW: VERBICI (6) looks a very, very promising two-year-old trotter for Chris Lang and Sonia Mahar, and he resumes from a break with an undefeated record after four career starts. He won the rich Nutrien Final at Wagga easily in late May and then was a tad unimpressive when scoring in the Group 2 Trot NSW Final after that, but did sustain a flat tyre and still got the job done. He beat KYVALLEY DIABLO (4) in a trial at Melton last week and again performed well at Kilmore in a hit-out there on Tuesday. The one to beat. KYVALLEY DIABLO (4) made an early break on debut at Bendigo in June but still won in a super display, and then galloped again in that Group 2 Trot NSW Final and ruled himself out of contention. He’s trialled well recently and is the key danger. INSULATOR (1) made an early error first-up last weekend, but had trialled well prior and has shown really good ability, while REGAL GALA (5) won that aforementioned race after finding the top with his good gate speed and has been racing well all season.
