Globe Derby Race 6 - Kevin & Kay Seymour Pace
WHATA OPTIMIST (6) is racing well with nine top-five finishes in succession, the latest effort a second at Port Pirie over 1609m. Meets a comparable field so he can play a significant role. ROLLING REMONA (8) is in good form with top-five finishes at her last six starts, most recently recording a third over 1800m at this track. Can travel in a nice spot from this draw and wait on the sprint lane if necessary. This doesn't look as hard so she is a major player again. REACT TO BEAUTY (3) must be considered after he finished runner-up over 1800m at this track a week ago. LOCHINVAR RULER (2) has each-way claims after he finished runner-up over 1800m at this track a week-and-a-half ago.

Last start 5th (Fr2) over 1800m after showing early pace at this track was 3rd-5 at the bell, beaten 14 m by Just Jimmy (2:15.50) in NR up to 49 on March 16 at $21. Two runs back 7th (Fr4) over 1800m after showing early speed and racing wide at this track was 3rd-2.2 at the bell, beaten 6 m by Clarenden Legacy (2:13.80) in NR 44 to 49 on February 21 at $41. This looks a far sterner test.

Two back was beaten by 9 m finishing sixth after a quick start, behind Shireen at this track over 2230m in a NR 43 to 48 on February 14 at $14. Then a handy effort when beaten by 5.5 m finishing second behind Sweet Arpeggio at this track over 1800m in a NR 40 to 42 on March 11 at $13. Heading the right way and is a leading player.

Solid run when a close second after being driven well back, behind Big Black Betty at this track over 2230m in a NR 50 to 57 on March 16 at $41. Then a handy effort when well beaten into third after being driven well back, behind Cyclone Brenda at this track over 1800m in a 3yo+ NR up to 54 FM on March 21 at $4.40. Can continue the good form and take this out.
