Darwin Race 3 - Sportsbet Hcp (70)

Good race but it's hard not to tip CRAZY BRAVE (3) to turn the tables on POLARISING. Resumed from a break with a three-length second but meets the winner far better at the weights and strips fitter for it. Should go close. POLARISING (4) does rise in the weights but has been in great form winning two of last four. Can fight out the finish again. HENNESSY LAD (1) may well want a little further but can get home hard into the finish. Has raced well here for the new yard and is a two-time winner fresh. Stablemate VILLA ROYALE (5) is also a fresh-up performer and goes well course and distance. Has the minimum and can run well. BRAZEN BON (2) is a fresh-up winner who can sneak into the finish.

Form hard to fault. Comes off a 29 day let-up. Last start favourite; won by 3 len at this track 0 - 64 April 10 over 1000m defeating Crazy Brave carrying 54.5kg at $3.90. Before that 4th of 7 at this track 0 - 70 on March 27 over 1200m, 6 len behind Atlantic Ocean with 55kg at $9.50. In great form and despite the extra weight looks hard to beat again.
