RACE 1
SCRUFFY (6) made a strong play for the front in the early stages last start and couldn’t get there. He finished off strongly once clear last start to go down a small margin to Playa Blanca. This looks a much easier race and he will prove hard to beat.
PERFECT TREND (2) is first up in this race without a trial. She is a bold front runner that can run good enough time to take this out if fit enough first up.
GRIGORA (1) ran on well last start into second behind A Perfect Dance. Draws to get plenty of favours.
MIGHTY GEORGE (7) ran on powerfully into third last start in a race where the tempo didn’t suit. He draws to do no work.
SELECTIONS: SCRUFFY (6), PERFECT TREND (2), GRIGORA (1), MIGHTY GEORGE (7)
SUGGESTED BET: SCRUFFY (6) to win.
RACE 2
EMMALEEN (5) is closing in strongly on a win. Just wasn’t able to reel in Pretty Little Liar last time out which looks good enough form for this.
FAVREAU (6) loves this track and trip. Despite the awkward gate he is likely to be hard to beat.
MY LATIN LADY (2) draws a very good gate and tackles the triangle for the first time. She has high speed and should be thereabouts in this.
ILLBEWATCHING (7) generally does his best work when driven quietly in the early stages. Went forward last start and just tired late. With a softer run here he can figure.
SELECTIONS: EMMALEEN (5), FAVREAU (6), MY LATIN LADY (2), ILLBEWATCHING (7)
SUGGESTED BET: EMMALEEN (5) to win.
RACE 3
ROLLONX (1) has been in great form recently. He is a bold front runner and is likely to be hard to beat leading in this race from an ideal gate.
EXPLANATION NOTED (8) ran on well last start at Albion Park into third. Draws ideally here to do no work in the early stages and is likely to be running on well again.
TULHURST CUDDLES (3) won two starts ago after doing the work at Redcliffe. Well beaten into fourth last start albeit in a fast mile rate at Albion park.
TACKAS LAST DANCE (5) beaten a small margin behind Royal Studleigh last start when racing on the pegs. Can be running on well at the finish.
SELECTIONS: ROLLONX (1), EXPLANATION NOTED (8), TULHURST CUDDLES (3), TACKAS LAST DANCE (5)
SUGGESTED BET: ROLLONX (1) to win.
RACE 4
MISS FROUFROU (3) looks to have found a suitable race. Was shuffled back on the pegs last time out and just couldn’t get into the race.
BLUE SUEDE ROCKA (5) ran on strongly last start into third in a quick mile rate.
QUEENSLANDER (1) hasn’t been racing at his absolute best. He is a classy horse when right and didn’t have the best of luck last start. Has options from the draw.
BRIAN CHRISTOPHER (8) didn’t finish it off last start. Start prior he was very good doing the work in a fast mile rate.
SELECTIONS: MISS FROUFROU (3), BLUE SUEDE ROCKA (5), QUEENSLANDER (1) BRIAN CHRISTOPHER (8)
SUGGESTED BET: MISS FROUFROU (3) to win.
RACE 5
HAWK EYE (5) was very impressive last start scoring by 18.6 metres. Looks likely to be hard to beat again however the race pans out.
FEELING THE POWER (4) loomed up strongly last start. This looks slightly tougher but he should be better for that first up effort.
SALS LAST BLAST (8) couldn’t get into it last start when coming wide late.
ROSARITO (3) drops back in grade. Has gate speed and can be thereabouts.
SELECTIONS: HAWK EYE (5), FEELING THE POWER (4), SALS LASG BLAST (8), ROSARITO (3)
SUGGESTED BET: HAWK EYE (5) to win.
RACE 6
XERXESE (2) trialled up well at Albion park in what was a trial that had a lot of depth. Has options from the draw.
ALWAYSMISSINGYOU (1) ran on strongly into second last start on Sunday behind Getagrip. That looks good form for this race and draws ideally.
ROCKWITHBON JUJON (3) hit the line strongly late last start in what became a dash home. Looks a slightly awkward draw on paper.
TENGGERI (9) ran on strongly last start once into the clear. Can be finishing off well again.
SELECTIONS: XERXESE (2), ALWAYSMISSINGYOU (1), ROCKWITHBON JUJON (3), TENGGERI (9)
SUGGESTED BET: XERXESE (2) to win.
RACE 7
HAPPY AS CAN BE (7) ran third behind Miss Crunchy and Grubscrew last start appearing to have every chance there to finish a bit closer. He meets a much lesser field and is likely to go around a very short priced favourite.
NORTEE NASH (6) has been living up to his name doing plenty wrong in races. He is having his first run for the Dan Russell stable after winning a trial.
SINGER SNAP (1) has gate speed and is in good form. Can dictate in the early stages.
JUSTCALLMENITRO (2) was able to break her maiden two starts ago at Kilcoy. Did the work last start in a decent mile rate for the grade and was entitled to tire.
SELECTIONS: HAPPY AS CAN BE (7), NORTEE NASH (6), SINGER SNAP (1),JUSTCALLMENITRO (2)
SUGGESTED BET: HAPPY AS CAN BE (7) to win.
RACE 8
MATAI REACTOR (9) rarely runs a bad race. Should be running on strong at the finish.
GHOST TRAIN (2) was forced to do the work last time out in a quick mile rate for the grade. If able to lead this time would likely be hard to beat.
WONDERWOMAN JUJON (3) does her best work up on the speed. She didn’t make any impression last time out running on late but has the quality to take this out at her best.
SUNNY COVE (4) ran well first up behind Goodtime Cracker in a good mile rate. Looks ready to win in this grade and should be better for that last run.
SELECTIONS: MATAI REACTOR (9), GHOST TRAIN (2), WONDERWOMAN JUJON (3), SUNNY COVE (4)
SUGGESTED BET: MATAI REACTOR (9) to win.
