RACE TWO
Tackling the less preferred 2138m trip last starts, HEMSWORTH (10) was unlucky not to have claimed an outright win after being hampered in the stretch. Still able to finish with a shared win via a dead-heat, he might just have shown he is at his best off the speed and this looks within reach.
GOOD AS IT GETS (1) was sent to sit parked last start from gate 4 over the 2138m and doing the heavy lifting was game in defeat when just a head from the winner. Only 7m away two starts back, he lands the gate to throw down the challenge.
OBI ONE (9) tackled the strong 58-70 final last start where he was trying to make some metres in the closing stages as SUMOMENTSOMEWHERE continued his heater. Runner-up in both prior outings, he can join in.
FALCONS (6) has placed in 2 of his past 3 starts, the latest here last week when trying to make a closing play when 2m in arrears of the winner. Beaten a lip two starts back, he can be chiming in.
SELECTIONS: HEMSWORTH (10), GOOD AS IT GETS (1), OBI ONE (9), FALCONS (6)
SUGGESTED BET: HEMSWORTH (10) to win
