10Arik Lad

Our price $2.20 · SP $3.70 · Sean Cormack

The gelding's ability to run on strongly suits the likely fast tempo. While yet to break through for a win, all signs point to a breakthrough performance here.

2nd pick7th
2Extremely Frilly

Our price $7.00 · SP $11.00 · Samantha Pointon

Extremely Frilly has been knocking on the door with consistent placings and should be suited by the conditions. The mare's ability to race on pace from the wide draw is a plus, and the strong jockey booking adds confidence. Main concern is the top weight.

3rd pick6th
7Only One Look

Our price $6.00 · SP $5.00 · Tahlia Fenlon

Only One Look returns from a long spell but has shown ability in previous preparations. The main query is fitness after such a long break, but stable confidence is noted.

Value pick2nd
6Miss Comaneci

Our price $10.00 · SP $19.00 · Adam Sewell

The mare has placed at this track and distance before, which is a positive. While yet to win, her recent performances suggest she's close to a breakthrough.

7Thormendous Miss

Our price $4.50 · SP $3.50 · Jason Taylor

4General Hippo

Our price $5.50 · SP $3.10 · Adin Thompson
