Globe Derby Race 4 - Jive Cafe Hollywood Plaza 2yo Pace (Sky 2)
HILLTOP CRUNCH (3) scored a commanding win when fresh from a break last time out over 1609m at Port Pirie on October 10, finishing 5.5 metres ahead of his rivals. A nice draw on the front line should ensure a cosy run. Finds a nice race and will prove very tough to beat once more. NO GOOD REASON (4) settled close to the pace then took control and kept finding to score narrowly over 1800m at this track eight weeks ago. Primary contender in a similar assignment. MY ULTIMATE HENRY (6) is a great chance after a string of sound recent performances, the latest a solid third at this track over 1800m. Hard to find fault. CECIL PEAK (5) disappointed last time when seventh over 1800m at this track. Can bounce back.

Two-year-old colt who is racing well. Good first up, won by 5.5 m as favourite when driven back in the field, (Fr3) held up early, at Port Pirie (2:01.40) beating Farroh Goddess in 2yo on October 10 at $1.15. Improvement to come so he is a big chance again.

Two back was well beaten into fifth behind Bettorbust at Mildura over 2190m on October 20 at $7. Then a handy effort when beaten by 7 m finishing third after a quick start, behind Sweetkindofmagic at this track over 1800m on October 26 at $15. One of the likely contenders.

Broke last start when 9th (Sr2) over 1800m at this track, well beaten by Casterton (2:09.70) in 2yo on October 17 at $13. Showed ability the race before when he posted a big 15 m win as favourite when quickly away, (Fr3) at this track (2:15.60) beating Just Vienna in 2yo on October 12 at $1.40 at the bell was leading 5.6. Chance with manners.
