I am giving 1 Northern Eyes (Bet Now: $23.00) one last chance. I have been red hot on him this prep but he’s had no luck in both runs. Latest came at Warwick Farm when tardy to begin, got further back, and was never a factor. Think drawn wide, he can take time coming across, ideally landing on speed, and the way he trialled leading in, he went too well to ignore.

5 Tenderize (Bet Now: $10.00) should be around the mark for Gary Portelli, as seen two weeks ago in the Midway over the mile at Randwick when on speed throughout and tried hard but couldn’t quite sustain the run when fourth to Zenmaster. Like him back in trip, good racing style, he appeals.

2 Agita (Bet Now: $13.00) is a David Payne trained gelding that resumes. He is first up, having not raced since Nov 29 when far from disgraced over 1800m here. Fresh at 1500m I do like and he looks to have trialled well enough so watch betting.

8 Juja Kibo (Bet Now: $3.80) had an awful set up leading into the Randwick Stakes two weeks ago. He was several weeks between runs, rising to 2000m from the mile, and in a fast run race, plus was chasing the hot speed. He was entitled to knock right up but he kept chasing and was game in defeat. Hard fit now and 2400m, he’s in the mix.

You had to like the way 1 Campaldino (Bet Now: $5.00) went about his business in the Randwick Stakes, really getting better as the race went on and stamped himself as a Sydney Cup top seed. This isn’t the Grand Final and right up in the weights, but he has to be respected.

5 Athabascan (Bet Now: $18.00) will just keep running it seems like and 2400m is no issue. He ran in the Randwick Stakes a fortnight back where he was going nowhere at one stage but he kept chasing and was strong in defeat when second to Campaldino. Like him up in trip, he’s a leading contender.

Hard to get away from 2 Pinito (Bet Now: $2.70). Was the real eye catcher first up in the Millie Fox before going to the Aspiration when given a 12/10 by J Mac and the mare finished best to score. She’ll love getting to 1900m and despite the wide gate, is a clear top seed.

7 Polymnia (Bet Now: $5.00) commands respect. O’Shea/Charlton trained mare that ran third in the Aspiration a fortnight back. She settled back off speed and worked home pretty well behind Pinito. Like the rise to 1900m for her. Just hoping she can get a more positive steer.

11 Sweltering (Bet Now: $26.00) is racing like a rise in distance will suit. She comes through the Aspiration where she seemingly had every chance from just off the pace but lacked the killer finale to go with them late. Like her up in trip and her best is good enough to be dangerous.

2 Skyhook (Bet Now: $3.20) is a class animal that resumes for Ryan/Alexiou. He hasn’t raced since the Coolmore Stud when down the track behind Tentyris. Been given a good break with this and the Arrowfield in mind, and his trial work has been very good. Hard to beat.

9 Caffe Florian (Bet Now: $11.00) should love the rise to 1200m. She was excellent in defeat in the Fireball when wide no cover throughout but kept chasing and was a definite pass mark behind Beadman. Better run in transit, she’s one of the leading contenders.

11 Bellazaine (Bet Now: $41.00) is a GaiBott trained filly that resumes. She last raced on Oct 4 when down the track over the mile in the Edward Manifold. Given a good break, back to being trained as a sprinter and has trialled well. Knockout hope.

It’s hard to get away from 4 Aeliana (Bet Now: $1.65). She has run out of her skin in both runs back, the latest run seeing her push Autumn Glow all the way in the Verry Elleegant when a narrow second. Hard fit, 2000m, no Baby Winx here…it all points to her.

1 Sir Delius (Bet Now: $3.00) looks the most obvious threat. He resumed in the Verry Elleegant where the race shape was totally against him but he kept on and was a definite pass mark in defeat behind Autumn Glow. Fitter, 2000m, settles on speed and is tough. He’ll just keep running.

Was hard not to miss the finale of 3 Trinity College (Bet Now: $11.00) in the Verry Elleegant. He was back in the run and while he was never a winning threat, he kept chasing and was quite good in defeat behind Autumn Glow. Fitter, 2000m, can settle closer, he’s one for exotics.

When in doubt, just go with the class, and the class here is clearly 1 Observer (Bet Now: $2.25). Dominant/arrogant first up win in the Autumn Stakes before going to the Australian Guineas where he got an all time ride by Brown and class kicked in when it mattered to score. He is the class runner, will press forward and take a power of beating.

The blinkers are still not back on for 2 Autumn Boy (Bet Now: $2.40), telling me the Grand Final is two weeks time, the Doncaster, more so than this race. He tried hard in the Randwick Guineas but was simply no match for Sheza Alibi. IMO, I am not sure he runs 2000m but has class as well.

4 Green Spaces (Bet Now: $20.00) should love the rise to 2000m. He’s just found them too sharp in both runs back but loved the way he kept chasing in the Randwick Guineas behind Sheza Alibi. Getting towards peak fitness and rising to a more suitable trip, he’s very dangerous.

It’s hard to get away from Baby Winx aka 8 Autumn Glow (Bet Now: $1.30). To the eye, just a win in the Verry Elleegant but when you break down the race shape, the sectionals, I thought she was unbelievable once again. Back to 1500m no issue, she loves her home track, the depth here, as a whole, isn’t deep…she wins again.

9 Lady Shenandoah (Bet Now: $13.00) was unbelievable in the Canterbury Stakes. Nash gave her a sore back and how she managed to attack the line like she did in defeat behind Joliestar and ran third…incredible effort. If that hasn’t busted her, surely she appeals against these.

1 Gringotts (Bet Now: $19.00) won this race last year…doubt he wins the 2026 edition but is an absolute must for exotics. He resumed in the Canterbury Stakes when back near last in the run and while he was never threatening, he kept chasing and was quite good. Fitter and up in trip, can settle closer, he can run first four.

I have been hot on 4 Warwoven (Bet Now: $9.00) for this race since before the Skyline, he had excuses there, but bounced back in style in the Pago Pago and I am convinced nothing has jumped out of the ground to say they are better than this guy. He got the dream run in the Pago Pago but he had to take advantage and he duly did to win. He’ll press forward, be strong late…very hard to beat.

Very wary of 5 Paradoxium (Bet Now: $12.00). He was prepped right up for the Todman given he needed to win and yes, he got complete front end control, but he gave nothing a look in and was quite dominant on the line in winning. Good racing style, 1200m no issue, he’s a clear danger.

3 Guest House (Bet Now: $10.00) is the one I want from the Blue Diamond. I think with clear air he wins but he didn’t get it until it was too late. He still does a bit wrong but clearly has an engine under the hood. If he does everything right, I am convinced he’s going to be in the finish.

I have been hot on 3 Generosity (Bet Now: $10.00) for this race for a couple of months and won’t be dropping off her, especially after her Challenge Stakes win first up where she got a 12/10 by J Mac and the ride was the difference between winning and losing. Waller has figured her out I think. Fresh is best and don’t do much with her between runs. She’s going to take beating here.

1 Briasa (Bet Now: $3.70) looks prepped right up for Team Hawkes. He won the TJ Smith last year, and first up in this race last year he was enormous in defeat against the pattern. He has looked very sharp in trial work and does have the runs on the board vs the rest.

4 Hedged (Bet Now: $6.50) is in the mix. He was unbelievable in the Oakleigh Plate. He lumped the 59kg and tried his guts out when second to Tropicus. If that hasn’t busted him, he’s going to run really well against these for mine.

10 Inkarun (Bet Now: $2.35) is going to jump as the short priced favourite in the race but it’s hard to see the talented filly getting beaten with even luck. She was very unlucky in the Fireball last start and this looks an easier race on paper. She should get a good run from barrier six and be winning this.

4 Monte Supreme (Bet Now: $8.50) should love the rise to 1200m after resuming over 1000m in the Challenge Stakes where she got back off speed and was never threatening but did like the way she finished her race off in defeat. Fitter, 1200m, back to Mares grade, she takes beating.

12 Asgarda (Bet Now: $14.00) is an interesting runner in the race. She is going to jump at big odds and I think she could put in a pretty sneaky run in this. She was a little unlucky in the Wenona Quality last start where she began a bit awkwardly and was only narrowly beaten. If the rest of the field are too worried about the favourite she might get some cheap sectionals and be hard to run down.

NEXT BEST: Race Three Number 2 Pinito
