top pick wonanother tip wonno tip won
Progressive filly showing strong improvement in just two career starts, finishing third on debut before a narrow second last start at Grafton over 1420m. The lightweight and natural improvement third-up make her the standout selection in this maiden.
Chris Waller-trained mare who brings strong metropolitan form references. Has placed three times from eight starts and boasts a strong second-up record. Drawn perfectly in barrier 2 and gets the services of Andrew Mallyon. Main danger to the top selection.
Another Chris Waller-trained mare who has shown ability without winning. Should get a nice run from barrier 7 with Brandon Lerena aboard, and the moderate-fast tempo should suit her running style. Definite place chance.
Lightly-raced gelding showing improvement with each run, finishing third last start on the synthetic track at Gold Coast. Second-up today with a good record in that pattern (0-0-1).

Next Pay Run brings the strongest form credentials, dropping back from a BM74 where she finished a close 4th carrying 55.5kg. Her soft track record is excellent (1-2-2 from 8 starts) and she's proven at this class level with a win in a BM58 in March. The mare has tactical versatility to overcome any barrier issues and Andrew Mallyon is a strong booking. The weight is the main concern but class should prevail.
Gold Puma brings solid recent form with a 3rd in a stronger BM66 last start. This progressive mare is still improving and should appreciate the moderate-fast tempo predicted. The barrier 4 draw is advantageous and Noriyuki Masuda is a positive jockey booking. Main concerns are her limited soft track record and the significant class rise, but her consistency and tactical adaptability make her a genuine threat.
Vetoed brings solid consistent form with a 5th, 2nd and 3rd in her last three starts. She's proven on soft tracks with 2 wins and 2 places from 12 starts and is dropping in class from recent runs. The main concerns are her moderate win strike rate and unproven record at this track and distance, but she's a genuine place chance.
Ourlegseleven represents excellent value after an eye-catching 2nd in a Class 1 just 3 days ago. The improving form pattern suggests she's ready to peak and the light weight of 55kg is advantageous. The quick backup is a query but could be a deliberate ploy to capitalize on her fitness.

Just Legendary brings the strongest form references, dropping significantly from Open company at Randwick-Kensington to a country Maiden. Has placed in both career starts on soft tracks and draws perfectly in barrier 2 to get an economical run. First-up record shows he can perform fresh.
Showed ability on wet tracks with a placing on Heavy 9 last start. From the strong Dunn stable who has multiple runners in this race, suggesting they've targeted it. First-up but has shown ability fresh and is drawn to get options from barrier 7.
Has the fitness edge being race-fit and draws the inside barrier which should be advantageous at Murwillumbah. Has performed on soft tracks previously and comes from the Peter Robl stable. Main concern is her inability to break through after 11 starts.
Drops significantly in class having contested a Group 3 race previously. The removal of winkers could spark improvement and she's proven at this distance with a placing.

Insta Worthy brings the strongest form credentials into this race with two second placings from six starts. The gelding has been racing in stronger company and drops significantly in class here. Maps to get a perfect midfield position from barrier 6 with Andrew Mallyon aboard.
His last start second at Ballina was impressive, and he's proven he can handle soft ground. The gelding is on an upward trajectory and should be right in the finish despite the slightly tricky barrier. Maps to be on speed which suits the track.
Pensiero has been knocking on the door with two third placings in her last three starts. The mare has shown she handles soft tracks with all three of her placings coming on soft ground.
She's second-up from a spell with natural improvement expected, and drops significantly in class from her previous runs. The addition of blinkers for the first time could be the gear change needed to sharpen her up.

Lightly-raced gelding with excellent potential dropping significantly in class. Has won on soft going and draws perfectly in barrier 4.
Well-bred gelding resuming from a lengthy spell with a strong first-up record (3:1-0-0). Last raced in open company and drops significantly in class. Drawn to be forward in the run and should be right in the finish if ready.
Ultra-consistent gelding who rarely runs a bad race with 8 seconds from 14 starts. Has strong soft track credentials (8:1-4-0) and comes off a good second last start. Main query is his ability to win rather than place, but must be included in all exotics.
Consistent performer who has placed third at his last two starts and drops in class for this assignment. Has a good record at similar distances (5:1-1-0) and has won on soft tracks previously. Draws perfectly in barrier 2 and should get an economical run.

Has proven adaptable to soft conditions with a win and a second from two attempts. The class rise is offset by natural improvement, weight relief, and an advantageous barrier. Appears to have more upside than his more exposed rivals.
Consistent 5YO who typically improves second-up (0-1-0 from 3 second-up attempts). Has won on soft going previously and draws well in barrier 3. The main concern is the 60kg impost, but his consistency and second-up pattern suggest he'll be right in the finish.
Track specialist who won his only start at Murwillumbah (albeit on heavy going). Returns from a lengthy spell but has shown ability when fresh previously. The gear changes suggest connections are looking to sharpen him up.
The significant gear changes suggest connections are looking to sharpen him up after a disappointing last start. Has proven ability at the distance with a win from his only attempt. While barrier 2 may be a concern given the track bias, his tactical speed should allow him to overcome this.

Hot Wings returns from a lengthy spell but brings winning form and a strong fresh record (0-1-0 from 2 first-up starts). Her last start victory at Oakbank showed her class, and she's well-placed from barrier 6 with a strong jockey booking. While unproven on soft tracks, her tactical versatility should allow her to settle in a good position. The stable has her ready to fire fresh.
So Be Inspired brings solid consistent form with a recent third at Grafton on a soft track. From barrier 7, she should get a good trailing position in midfield and can finish strongly. While she's rising in class, her consistency makes her a genuine place chance.
Now second-up from a spell with a good second-up record, she's proven at the distance with a win and three placings from five attempts. While facing a class rise, her recent form suggests she's ready to peak, and she maps to get a good run from barrier 8 in a race with solid tempo.

Lightly-raced mare showing significant promise with a dominant last-start win on soft ground. While stepping up significantly in both class and distance, she appears progressive enough to handle it. Gets in with a light weight and has drawn well. The soft track conditions should suit based on her previous win on similar going.
Consistent mare from the Kris Lees stable who has been racing well, including a win two starts back on synthetic and a close 3rd last start over 1920m. Has the stamina for this trip but is yet to prove herself on soft ground. The class rise is a concern, but her consistency and recent form suggest she can be competitive.
Mare who has been racing in stronger company and produced a solid 4th in BM65 grade last start over similar distance. Has a good record on soft tracks (5:0-1-2) and the gear changes (blinkers first time, barrier blanket) could spark improvement. The moderate tempo should suit her racing pattern and she has tactical versatility.
Has won on soft ground previously and has experience at this track. While unproven at the 2000m trip, her racing pattern suggests she should handle it.
