RACE COMMENT
Given a freshen since his last start victory, ALWAYS B COOL (6) has shown that he possesses speed and ability in his three career starts. Dictating and defeating subsequent 3YO Breeders winner FIRE AND PASSION last start, he faces a tough test from this gate but looks up to it. MAGIC MIKI (4) had the draw advantage over his main threat BEROCCA BERNIE last start and made the most of the chance, taking control and producing a smart win in 1.51.0 at jus his fourth starts. With added fitness following three runs back, he can issue the challenge. OHOKA DREAM (3) was first up in 2 years here on Thursday and from gate 6 was forced to work in the run when parked. Claiming a tough 2nd, he should tighten off that effort to feature again. BEACHBABE CROCKER (2) is first up for the new barn after striking trouble in the 3YO Fillies Breeders heats. Down the line in the NSW Oaks Final the start prior, she is a podium hope here.
