Sale Race 8 - Otago F111
DRAX BALE (2) won again in an impressive display after leading them home to make it two on the bounce, scoring by 0.7 lengths (24.27) at this track over 435m. Recorded the quickest time on the card last start. Looks the one to beat. DR. EXCLAIM (1) was midfield throughout and finished there last time when 5th (24.66) at this track. Some good form is emerging from his last run. Has ability and is one of the better chances. DR. FANATICAL (4) missed the frame last time when fourth (28.92) at this track but prior to that had two placings in a row. Has a good record here including four wins. Remains without a win from the draw but has been in the placings five times from 10 attempts. Must be included in calculations. ONCE MORE (6) should be thereabouts after filling a top-three at this track and distance most recently.

Won two starts back over 435m at this track. Last start he finished 5th in a Free For All on November 1 over 435m at this track behind Dr. Zaiden beaten 3.5 lengths (24.66). Draw likely to suit. Has run blistering time here with a 28.7 PB at the distance. Hard to beat.
