RACE FOUR
TWENTYEIGHTBLACK (1) sat parked over the middle trip last time out and after the torrid run wilted in the latter stages. 2 starts back from the front, he was looking to fight them off and went down swinging when only a neck from the subsequent winner SAM IS PERFECTION. The gate gives him every chance.
MOHS EM DOWN (2) steps out for the Jack Butler barn for the first time after being claimed last start. Forced to hang tough in the breeze over the 2138m, he was in for the fight when 6m from the winner in holding on for 2nd. With early options here, he can look to make a challenge.
BALL OF ART (4) is on the short back-up, contesting a 2613m stand start event at Redcliffe on Thursday. Shooting for a hat-trick of wins prior to Thursday, he faded late as MISTER BRAZIL arrived. If he handles the back-up, he is right in this.
MONTANA CHIEF (5) is never far from the action and the small field will be in his favour as he likes to make a closing charge. Working home smartly for the silver here on Tuesday, he can be chiming in.
SELECTIONS: TWENTYEIGHTBLACK (1), MOHS EM DOWN (2), BALL OF ART (4), MONTANA CHIEF (5)
