Best bet: Race 8, No. 7 Yousay Bolt.
Best roughie: Race 4, No. 2 Sugar Pine
Race one
Tips: 8 II Professionale, 7 Flora Bel, 4. Miss Crompton, 2. Glamarama
II Professionale is a smart filly who resumed with very dominant win after a wide run, drawn the rails this time and can only be improved. Flora Bel's all runs good to date particularly this preparation can get the right run.
Race two
Tips: 1 Star of the Clan, 2 Suneeze, 8 Simply Striking, 3 Spirit force
Star of the Clan is a smart filly coming here third up, right back in grade can offset the wide draw. Suneeze should be ready to peak third up here, smart mare when right.
Race three
Tips: 1 Velvet Aeroplane, 12 Tejori, 6 Mixed Up Grey, 5. Secret Work
Velvet Aeroplane placed both runs to date and looks to break her duck from the ideal gate. Tejori very impressive trial winner recently and looks a likely type.
Race four
Tips: 2 Sugar Pine, 1 Discombe, 14 Withorn, 3 Wordless
Sugar Pine placed two of nine but form is much better than it reads, he finally draws a gate and finds the right race. Discombe is beautifully bred and from the leading yard, showed speed but faded on debut but will be fitter.
Race five
Tips: 10 Metralla, 6 Tag and Release, 3 Arondissemen, 14 Miss Farloo
Metralla has come back very well this preparation, good win this T/D last time, well drawn again. Tag and Release improved effort second up at Queanbeyan, should be at peak and drawn to get all the favours.
Race six
Tips: 12 Zarafah, 9 Perfect Rhyme, 5 Pinetti, 6 Elaborate
Zarafah is a smart filly on the way up, dominant win last time, extra distance looks ideal. Perfect Rhyme not sighted first up but overall form strong, can improve back in grade.
Race seven
Tips: 5 Belfast Bella, 8 Parliament, 6 Fun Tickets, 10 Vertex
Belfast Bella is a smart mare racing in great form, dominant winner two back, most unlucky last time, she looks the one here. Parliament is shooting for the hat trick here, and making his way through the grades, looks well suited this distance.
Race eight
Tips: 7 Yousay Bolt, 12 Prince Jacko, 4 Territorial, 6 Emerald Fortune
Yousay Bolt is a very smart filly resuming here, goes well fresh and loves this trip, should be too good here. Prince Jacko going really well this preparation and won't be far off.
