Race Preview

Hard to see how they beat TOUCHDOWN (2) again. He's kept raising the bar with some ultra progressive wins, far too good at $1.60 last time over 1800m. He looks like he'll continue to improve over more ground and with more racing. Odds-on looks fair. TRAPALANDA (8) was only second up when chasing Touchdown home there and meets him 6kg better off at the weights. That's significant and he'll relish 2000m but fancy the winner has even more to offer. WOLFESS (10) is going great guns of late, just run down late her past couple. She does no work here and should be right there. SUN GIFT (9) was a tough winner second up at Cranbourne and can go on with it while POLITELY DUN (7) is going well and can be flying late.
