RACE SIX
It has been a superb season for GOVERNOR JUJON (5) and despite what could potentially be a tricky gate, he has the class to add another feature race to an ever-expanding CV. With a 5-win picket on the board, his last start win at Redcliffe was clinical from the breeze in a sizzling closing half. With his main dangers looking to be the fillies, victory will nudge him over $300k in stakes.
JENDEN STRIKE (3) was sent forward in the middle stages in the SE Oaks last start, with the difference between being victorious and vanquished coming with the early move. Under the urgings of a great steer, she arrived to score a smart win. With added fitness and her best gate in some time, she can issue a challenge.
PELOSI (7) has been slugged with gate 7 again, adding to the same barrier she had to contend with in last week’s Oaks. Taken back, she was a long way back when trying to make a challenge. The closing splits were strong, yet she was just too far back. No doubting her class, the map is the concern.
CRUNCH TIME (11) was sent around them early last start over the mile when 1st up from a spell. Doing plenty of work in the run, it was a tidy effort when within 2m of the win. With a cart into the contest, he can chime into a race where there looks to be plenty of contenders for the minor money.
