Race 1. (11:50) Midway Handicap 1600m
5 Tenbury Wells (Bet Now:Β $SP.00) is the way I am leaning. Brad Widdup trained four year old that resumed in the Midway two weeks ago where he trucked into the race and in the straight, he looked threatening enough but first up, condition just gave way. Fitter and up in trip, he appeals.
1 Claim The Crown (Bet Now:Β $SP.00) had his first run for John Sargent when resuming over the mile at Warwick Farm when off speed and worked home strongly when second to Island Dream. Tricky draw, but in well after the claim and I think with a more positive race, he’s dangerous.
9 Otono (Bet Now:Β $SP.00) should appreciate getting to 1600m after resuming two weeks back over 1400m here in the Midway. She was never really a winning threat, but didn’t mind the way she finished her race off in defeat. If she can settle closer, be within range, she can threaten.
Race 2. (12:25) Tab Highway Handicap 1000m
3 Petticoat (Bet Now:Β $SP.00) is a very interesting runner. Brett Dodson trained mare that resumes, having not raced since Feb 22 at Doomben when down the track over 1110m behind Dream Start. Trialled up like a rocket to get ready for the return, I think she’s here to go.
8 Gaylord (Bet Now:Β $SP.00) is a Matty Dunn trained gelding that is heading in the right direction. Dominant win over 1050m at Grafton last time, giving them a start and a beating and producing nice change up speed to win and win well. Confident he measures up.
11 Cool Storm (Bet Now:Β $SP.00) comes to town off the back of a first up win over 1000m at Scone where she led throughout and credit to her, she was there to be beaten but she found to fend them off and score. Good racing style and has upside to come.
Race 3. (13:00) Nick Moraitis Trophy 1200m
8 Sergeant Major (Bet Now:Β $SP.00) should be better for the first up run, which came three weeks ago at Rosehill when off speed and worked home well when eventually clear behind Lady Extreme. I think drawn wide, he’ll press forward, ridden like the best horse in the race, and take beating.
2 Disneck… (Bet Now:Β $SP.00) less said the better from three weesk ago at Rosehill. He should have won but just had no luck at a vital stage, driving hard late when eventually clear to just miss. If the breaks go his way, he’s going to take holding out.
6 Midnight Opal (Bet Now:Β $SP.00) is a Nathan Doyle trained gelding that resumes. He is first up, having not raced since Jan 18 at Rosehill over 1300m, getting a sweet sit in transit and finished best to score. Two trials under the belt, kind map, rates highly.
Race 4. (13:35) The Agency Real Estate Handicap 1400m
15 Dominetta (Bet Now:Β $SP.00) is dangerous for GaiBott. She resumed behind Well Timed a fortnight back here. She seemed to get every chance but 1200m seemed a tad on the sharp side. Better set up here and rising to 1400m, she’s one of the leading contenders.
10 Bauhinia (Bet Now:Β $SP.00) should appreciate a rise to 1400m after resuming over 1200m here two weeks ago where she just found them a bit sharp but she kept finding the line and was pretty good late in the piece. Fitter and up in trip, good upside to come, she appeals.
3 Well Timed (Bet Now:Β $SP.00) was a superb winner over 1200m here two weeks back when wide no cover but Nash had him absolutely trucking before being clicked up and away he went to win and win well. Natural upside/improvement, he’s one of the hardest to beat.
Race 5. (14:15) Kingston Town Stakes 2000m
12 Birdman (Bet Now:Β $SP.00) looks to be ticking along beautifully for Chris Waller. He comes through the Chelmsford where just found them a tad sharp over the mile but he kept on and kept finding the line. Like him up to 2000m, hard fit, leading contender.
3 Vauban (Bet Now:Β $SP.00) rates highly after his Chelmsford Stakes effort. He got just off the speed over the mile and tried hard but in a sit/sprint, he couldn’t dash quick enough but he stayed on and was pretty good late. Fitter and up in trip, he takes beating.
4 Athabascan (Bet Now:Β $SP.00) needs more racing and more ground but he is a handy stayer that is capable. He just found them a bit sharp in the Chelmsford but kept finding the line and was pretty good late in the piece I thought behind Lindermann. Might need another run but he ran very well in this race last year so I am not dismissing him.
Race 6. (14:50) Tea Rose Stakes 1400m
5 Artistic Venture (Bet Now:Β $SP.00) is a filly I have plenty of time and very keen to see her at this level. She was one of the better maidens going around prior to the tag being removed via a win at Kembla over 1400m, letting down strongly late and was impressive in the run to the line. Hard to beat because she did run well at this level as a juvenile.
3 Within The Law (Bet Now:Β $SP.00) has been crying out for 1400m and third up, hard fit now, she is one of the hardest to beat. She ran in the Furious two weeks ago where she was one of the runs of the meeting, closing with real purpose late against the pattern behind Apocalyptic. If she can settle closer, she’ll take beating.
8 Next Jen (Bet Now:Β $SP.00) is in with a shout for Team Archibald. She resumed in the Furious where she was another not really suited by the pattern but closed her race off pretty well in defeat I thought behind Apocalyptic. The rise to 1400m is ideal and has good upside to come.
Race 7. (15:25) Bill Ritchie Handicap 1400m
2 Yellow Brick (Bet Now:Β $SP.00) takes beating here after resuming in the Show County a few weeks ago. He got a nice run in transit and loomed to win but first up with the bog track, condition just gave way late in the piece. Fitter, up in trip, firmer deck, he’ll take beating.
17 Royal Patronage (Bet Now:Β $SP.00) is a GaiBott trained galloper that resumes. He is first up, having not raced since the Champions Mile at Sha Tin when struggling and not really measuring up. Fresh at 1400m looks ideal and his trial work has been quite good.
10 Kintyre (Bet Now:Β $SP.00) is first up for Gary Portelli and I say is dangerous at odds. He hasn’t raced since April 19 here when down the track and a bit on the plain side behind Sandpaper. Not a noted fresh horse but has trialled up like a rocket in readiness for the return. Watch betting.
Race 8. (16:00) The 7 Stakes 1600m
11 Fangirl (Bet Now:Β $SP.00) is a few weeks between runs for Chris Waller since resuming in the Memsie at Caulfield. Not sure she was 100% happy around the tighter track but she kept on and was a definite pass mark in defeat. Fitter and up in trip, back to where she races best, she’s the one to beat, and clearly.
6 Lindermann (Bet Now:Β $SP.00) got conditions to suit in the Chelmsford but credit to him, he took advantage, led and was there to be run down but he found under pressure to fend them off and score. Looks to get the front once again and will take running down.
8 Militarize (Bet Now:Β $SP.00) should appreciate getting to the mile. He resumed two weeks back in the Tramway. He got off speed and kept chasing with purpose without threatening behind impressive winner Pericles. Not sure he is good enough to win but is a must for exotics.
Race 9. (16:40) The Shorts 1100m
4 Joliestar (Bet Now:Β $SP.00) is a class mare for Chris Waller that resumes, having not raced since the Kingsford Smith Cup when producing a brilliant finale from off speed to finish best. Good test here fresh at 1100m against the big boys and girls but her trials have been great and is a clear class runner.
2 Private Harry… (Bet Now:Β $SP.00) just how good is he? 5/5 for Nathan Doyle, already in The Everest…just don’t know how good he is because he is unbeaten. He is a winner…but what has he beaten? On a fair track, I dare say Briasa wins The Galaxy and of course he went on to win the TJ Smith, so that form is very strong, he has a good racing style and looks very forward off his trial work. Market will be fascinating.
10 Generosity (Bet Now:Β $SP.00)…what was the Concorde run? Was the pattern flattering to her, or was she indeed that unlucky and should have fought the finish out? We’ll get a guide here because she should get her chance to let down and for exotics, she has to be included.
Race 10. (17:15) Peachester Lodge Shoot Out Mile 1600m
5 Lord Penman (Bet Now:Β $SP.00) looks really well placed here for Chris Waller after a first up second five weeks ago at Rosehill, chasing strongly from off speed but had to settle for a narrow second to Cloudland. Fitter, firmer footing, he’ll take beating against these.
2 Diamond Diesel (Bet Now:Β $SP.00) is racing really well at present for Adam Duggan. He was thrown in the deep end in the Winx Stakes and while he was outclassed, safely held, I thought he was far from disgraced in defeat. Back to this level, he’ll run a beauty I say.
8 Churchill’s Choice (Bet Now:Β $SP.00) is a Nathan Doyle trained mare that resumes. She is second up after resuming in the Mona Lisa when back in the run and made up headway without threatening. Fitter and up in trip, bigger track, she’s an improver.
