R1 – 12:35pm – EL Titan Yabby Dam Farms Victoria Trotters Derby (1st Heat) - 2690m

1 – Commodus

7 – Ijustcalledtosay

6 – Vytis

2 – Karbine

 

R2 – 1:09pm – Classic Connection Yabby Dam Farms Victoria Derby (2nd Heat) – 2690m 

6 – Gatesys Gem

2 – Mercano

4 – Muskee

1 – Mystery Fred

 

R3 – 1:44pm – McPhersons Printing Group Trot – 2190m 

3 – The Night Queen

5 – Allwhatfunjingles

9 – Ridethelightning

2 – Chinski

 

R4 – 2:19pm – Benstud Standardbreds Trot – 2190m 

7 – Aldebaran Sue

6 – Skybella

9 – Pass The Salt

2 – Aldebaran Jazmine

Strategy:

Aldebaran Sue drops sharply in grade after tackling the elite 3YO fillies in recent runs. When she’s raced outside that topflight, she’s consistently performed and won. Despite the wide draw, her class can take her a long way in this.

BACK: 7 Aldebaran Sue – 2 Units (win)

 

R5 – 2:54pm – Dancinginthedark M @ Aldebaran Park Trot – 2190m 

4 – Lilys Tiger

9 – Hold That Magic

8 – Aldebaran Susanne

5 – No Telling Heather

Strategy:

Lilys Tiger has been trotting well in recent starts against stronger company. From the front row, she can roll forward and settle into her rhythm early. With a confident drive, she looks a solid play against this lineup.

BACK: 4 Lilys Tiger – 1 Unit (win)

 

R6 – 3:29pm – Yabby Dam Farms Vicbred Voucher 3yo Maiden Trot – 2190m 

7 – Thats My Cardigan

4 – Little Miss Valley

9 – Calders Revenge

10 – Bettor Man

 

R7 – 4:14pm – Peter Egan Bi-Rite Electrical 2yo Trotters Handicap – 2190m 

6 – The Preacher

8 – Notanotha Naughty

11 – Im Havintotrot

10 – Aldebaran Ada

Strategy:

The Preacher comes through the same race as favourite and key rival Notanotha Naughty, who had the better run up front on a slow tempo. In contrast, The Preacher came from last flying to the line. The standing start is the unknown, but if he steps safely, expect Chris Alford to capitalise on his developing ability.

BACK: 6 The Preacher – 3 Units (win)

 

R8 – 4:49pm – Redwood Day 2025 – 7 Days To Go Trot – 1690m 

9 – Whats The Tea

12 – Off Your Faceski

8 – Col Du Granon

13 – Xiaobo

 

R9 – 5:24pm – Waste Recyclers Of Victoria Trot (2nd Heat) – 2190m 

1 – Jessicas Story

5 – Sky Lindy

10 – The Chook

8 – Night Whisperer

 

R10 – 5:54pm – Redpath Tyre & Battery Service Trot (2nd Heat) – 1690m 

12 – Ezra Kai

7 – Mont Sally

11 – Antonov

3 – Night Sky

Strategy:

Ezra Kai has consistently raced against top 2YO and 3YO company and built a strong record despite the opposition. His last-start win came in smart time, and while this short trip and back-row draw present a different challenge, his class can prevail.

BACK: 12 Ezra Kai – 4 Units (win)

 

QUADDIE (Races 5-8)
