Great edition of the Giglai this year, can’t wait for a great day of racing. Strong field quality and an average pace predicted, focuses the view on the mid fielders with good acceleration. Really like the look of Tofane to tuck in and wind up early. She looks like she can sustain a strong pace deep into this race. Some very strong chances coming from the rear of the field, that have done the business at this level before. Santa Ana Lane and Zoutori obviously look strong, and Kementari has been flying under the radar due to a quiet finish to his last prep. Just on the last race down the straight in this class, Tofane was strong behind Zoutori, and the data points strongly to her going better this start.
Good Luck

RUNNER COMMENTRY
NO | NAME | COMMENT |
1 | Fifty Stars | Goes OK fresh, and looks to get into an OK spot. Classy horse, might need a few runs to make an impact at this grade. |
2 | Zoutori | Great win here last start, and OK second up record. Drawn ideally in the middle again, and if he can produce a similar run again for Kah he will be in the mix again. |
3 | Kemalpasa | Rolling the dice a bit with this race, but has been strong down the straight before. Should get into an OK sport, but the last section looks to be tough. |
4 | Tofane | No disgrace in her last run, and an ideal lead into this race. Looks to get a mid field sit without having to do any work, and from 4 Oliver would at least have an option of where to shift. There will be a host top horses flying from behind her, but this looks a target for her and the data suggests she will be very hard to beat. |
5 | The Inevitable | Goes OK second up, but yet to strike the straight six and this is a big class jump. Might shuffle back from the draw and won’t appreciate the softer pace. Might find it hard to come over the top with the other half of the field. |
6 | Santa Ana Lane | Love seeing this guy in another campaign, and we all know how he winds up late. Looks to post a very good time, just might need the run, and its likely this is not his target. Still, loves the straight 6, and can’t see him not being in the finish. |
7 | Kementari | Sir William on a strong first up sprinter. Top stable for these races, and the only trouble for him is that he will be navigating the field with others, and maybe he needs a run. Still, value. |
8 | Dollar For Dollar | Gave a real shout in the Rupert Clarke, and looks the leader this race again. Will have a bit of a harder time here, and unproven down the straight. Data has him struggling at the 200m. |
9 | I Am Someone | Really decent acceleration from a decent spot, but the data suggests he might have to burn it a little bit too hard early. |
10 | Excess Funds | Drawn OK but a bit step up in class, will need to try and work forward to have a better chance you would think. |
