Globe Derby Race 6 - Kevin & Kay Seymour Pace (Sky 1)
WHATA OPTIMIST (1) was solid from the back row last start and did a good job to come a wide barrier an win at this venue two runs ago. Likely to get all the favours from the ace draw so has strong claims. GOLDEN JAYLET (2) made it two in succession at this circuit when he got the cash by a nose over 1800m last week. Likely to get a good run from this nice draw. Can strike again. CLARENDEN SAKURA (10) owns a 50 per cent strike rate at this circuit and distance and comes right into contention after scoring last start by a head at Gawler. ROLLING REMONA (5) draws wider but is worth thought off a last-start win by a neck at Port Pirie.

Last start was well beaten into fifth behind Balladoro at this track over 1800m in a NR up to 49 on March 28 at $13. Performed better the start before where he won by 5 m when driven back in the field, (Fr6) held up early, at this track (2:11.40) beating Lochinvar Ruler in NR 43 to 48 on March 23 at $6.50 at the bell was 3rd-3.8. Should be right in the finish.

13-year-old gelding is racing in fine form. Won his last two outings at this track both over 1800m. Last start won by a nose after showing early speed, (Fr5) at this track (2:12.90) beating Lochinvar Ruler in NR up to 43 on March 28 at $12. Going very well and deserves top billing.
