Globe Derby Race 6

Kevin & Kay Seymour Pace (Sky 1)

Stake: $7,559

ALORA (5) recent form has been hard to fault. Scored at her latest appearance over 1800m at this track, getting home by a nose. This should be an easier assignment so she is the one to beat again. BEACH HOPPER (4) won at this track two runs ago before having his colours lowered at his latest appearance over 2230m at this track, beaten 10 metres. Meets a comparable field and he can make amends. CLASSIC LINE (7) is a great chance after a string of sound recent performances, the latest a solid fourth at this track over 2230m. Hard to find fault. JUST CHAI (3) is worth plenty of thought off a last-start win by 5 metres at this track over 1800m.

Seven-year-old gelding showed improvement last time. Won by 3 m when quickly away, (Fr3) at Port Pirie (2:30.00) beating Duke Of Dundee in NR 55 to 69 on May 6 at $5 at the bell was leading 4.6. The race before was not as impressive when well beaten into seventh after a quick start, behind United at this track over 2230m in a NR 63 to 74 on May 3 at $21. Needs to go to another level.

Looked good last start. Won by a nose (Sr2) at this track (2:11.20) beating Delightfull Tammy in 4yo+ No NR M on May 3 at $4.20. Two runs back won by a nose when driven back in the field, (Fr4) held up early, at this track (2:46.80) beating Thats Art in NR 50 to 57 GROUP on April 26 at $3.40. Sure to go well.

Last start was driven from back in the field when 4th (Fr4) over 2230m at this track, beaten 6 m by Bellezza Nera (2:41.90) in No NR on April 26 at $6.50. Before that, a solid effort despite getting well back, when 2nd (Fr7) over 1800m at this track, at the bell was 6th-10.2 beaten 2.75 m by Beach Hopper (2:11.60) in 5yo+ NR 63 to 74 GROUP on April 19 at $2.10. Has the ability to figure prominently.
