RACE 1
OLDGOLD (1) was a good second last start. He draws to get all the favours and should prove very hard to catch in this field.
NITE IRENE (5) was a good fourth last start. This race looks more suitable than some of his recent assignments.
FRANKIE GIRL (7) trialled up reasonably well finishing just behind Bettys Gold Class. That looks reasonable form for this.
SELECTIONS: OLDGOLD (1), NITE IRENE (5), FRANKIE GIRL (7)
SUGGESTED BET: OLDGOLD (1) to win.
RACE 2
WHYKIKAMOOCOW (2) has been racing well. Has gate speed and if able to lead would prove very hard to beat in this race.
CHARMAWAY (8) closed off strongly last start behind Taking A Punt. Looks a suitable draw to follow out the potential leader early.
GOT THE GLOW (9) was doing best work late last start in a race they didn’t go quickly in the early stages. Could get the perfect track into the race.
VICTREE ATOM (4) didn’t have a great deal of luck last start. This looks easier than his prior races and should be thereabouts in this.
SELECTIONS: WHYKIKAMOOCOW (2), CHARMAWAY (8), GOT THE GLOW (9), VICTREE ATOM (4)
SUGGESTED BET: CHARMAWAY (8) to win.
RACE 3
BLISSFULL IDENTITY (9) has been in extremely consistent form. He can do work in his races and should be in the finish again.
DIAMOND DEANO (1) didn’t finish it off last start after racing off the pegs and out the back. He was able to break his maiden win five starts ago when leading all the way which he may get the opportunity to do again in this.
MISS PAU (6) was a good second last start. Can do work in her races and despite the draw looks one of the hardest to beat.
CRIME BOSS (2) hasn’t been at his absolute best in recent starts but he does have good gate speed and if able to find the pegs would be thereabouts.
SELECTIONS: BLISSFULL IDENTITY (9), DIAMOND DEANO (1), MISS PAU (6), CRIME BOSS (2)
SUGGESTED BET: BLISSFULL IDENTITY (9) to win.
RACE 4
GOODTIME CRACKER (6) was a big winner two starts ago in fast time at the track and trip. Stepped up to the 2138 at Albion park last start and just did plenty wrong.
ISLA AND ADDIE (7) draws awkwardly but should be fitter for her past two outings. Closed off well last start into second.
TORQUE WRITER (8) raced in stronger company last start at Albion park in a quick mile rate.
SAINT LOUIS BEAT (4) is a gate speed horse. Can figure in the finish if able to find the pegs in the early stages.
SELECTIONS: GOODTIME CRACKER (6), ISLA AND ADDIE (7), TORQUE WRITER (8), SAINT LOUIS BEAT (4)
SUGGESTED BET: GOODTIME CRACKER (6) to win.
RACE 5
MODERN SHEEN (1) is a horse that has gate speed and she is in good form. She showed her toughness two starts ago when sitting without cover to win.
HELL OF A HAND (7) could obtain the perfect run in this race on the leaders back. She is racing in great form and loves this type of run.
RAINBOWSEND (9) is having her first start for the Ricky Thurlow stable after trialling up sharply. Looks to have good ability.
KOWHAI BLAZE (3) has been placed in her last three starts. Draws slightly awkwardly but looks a suitable race.
SELECTIONS: MODERN SHEEN (1), HELL OF A HAND (7), RAINBOWSEND (9), KOWHAI BLAZE (3)
SUGGESTED BET: HELL OF A HAND (7) to win.
RACE 6
KING OF TRUMPS (9) trialled up extremely well running past Borella in fast time. Should be better for that run and lands in a suitable race.
BETTERTHAN POPSY (4) was beaten a small margin behind Lochinvar Jag last start in a Band 5. This looks easier dropping back to an up to 70 race.
HOLD ONTO YA BLING (5) was held up last start at a crucial stage before hitting the line reasonably once clear. Is second up into this race and this looks suitable.
ROCK OF DELIGHT (2) has the perfect draw here to do no work early. Was a winner three starts ago.
SELECTIONS: KING OF TRUMPS (9), BETTERTHAN POPSY (4), HOLD ONTO YA BLING (5), ROCK OF DELIGHT (2)
SUGGESTED BET: BETTERTHAN POPSY (4) to win.
RACE 7
SMOOTH OVERARM (6) was sent forward early last start and over raced badly there. From the wide gate if he can be saved up for one run he may be able to run over the top plate.
MADAM WEST (8) was making late ground last start after taking on a stronger race at Albion park where they recorded a very fast mile rate. She draws well and can be thereabouts.
ZOOM PARTY (5) was having his first run for over a month last start. He didn’t have the best of luck there and should be better for the run.
PRETTY LITTLE LIAR (9) made a mid race move last start and was able to score a big victory. Can be running on strong at the finish.
SELECTIONS: SMOOTH OVERARM (6), MADAM WEST (8), ZOOM PARTY (5), PRETTY LITTLE LIAR (9)
SUGGESTED BET: SMOOTH OVERARM (6) to win.
RACE 8
PUNTERS JEWEL (5) drops back a long way in grade having raced some of the better 3YOs in his last few starts. He was beaten just over 7 metres three starts ago in a 1.53.2 mile rate.
MISTER HART (2) handed over in the early stages last start after working hard. He was dragged out of it by the tiring leader before finishing off well once eventually clear.
TORQUE IN CONTROL (9) had things go her way last start working to the breeze after the leaders had gone hard in the early stages. She battled away strongly to hold off Isla And Addie who’d had a soft run.
RIVER ROCK (4) won last start after securing a good run in the race. Draws awkwardly in this race but has the ability to figure in the finish.
SELECTIONS: PUNTERS JEWEL (5), MISTER HART (2), TORQUE IN CONTROL (9), RIVER ROCK (4)
SUGGESTED BET: PUNTERS JEWEL (5) to win.
