RACE COMMENT
OVERVIEW: IAMAWINGATE (10) drops to a much more suitable grade here after some solid efforts and, when he's in this ratings group, he's at his most competitive. He wasn't far away from a soft draw last time in a much harder race, and the final half he ran there is good enough to win a race like this despite the awkward draw. DREAMTIME NALA (9) had her first run for the new stable and was able to lead throughout at Bendigo last time. The time wasn't flash there and she now goes to the back row, but this race presents a similar challenge. KNOW THE SCORE (8) came through the same race and was finding the line strongly. He gets a good trail behind the likely leader here and can be in the finish again. OKTOLOVE (1) looks the likely leader and, while he can be forgiven for last start when forced to race tough, he did have every chance the run prior when more was expected. BACK: IAMAWINGATE (10) – 1 unit (win)
