RACE COMMENT
OVERVIEW: THUNDERFIRE (9) looks as though he’s trending in the direction of a very smart horse. He’s building a good record, and his first-up victory was a dashing display where he won effortlessly. He gets a nice trailing draw off a good speed for him to unleash his strong sprint late. SKYFALL BENCHMARK (5) is a quick beginner, and whilst there’s no guarantee he’ll find the front, with a sit his form is good enough. STARZZZ DESTINY (11) hasn’t had much luck with barrier draws lately, but he continues to run well and can trail into it late. MUSSEL SHOALS (3) is a fast beginner and last-start winner leading all the way; he’s just slightly up in grade. BACK: THUNDERFIRE (9) – 4 units (win)
