★ Top pickWon
2Hydrobomb

Our price $2.80 · SP $4.60 · Daniel Stackhouse

The Hayes-trained colt has demonstrated ability on soft tracks and drops markedly in grade from Group 2 company. Despite the wide draw, his tactical speed and Stackhouse's skill should overcome barrier concerns.

2nd pick6th
5King's Address

Our price $4.20 · SP $4.80 · Mark Zahra

The Maher-trained colt showed genuine ability when second at Ballarat and the addition of blinkers plus Zahra's booking suggests stable confidence. The class rise is concerning but his raw ability appears superior.

3rd pick4th
10Autumn Lover

Our price $7.00 · SP $6.00 · Luke Nolen

The improving filly has shown wet track ability and represents a quality stable.

Value pick8th
6Optimus

Our price $6.50 · SP $3.90 · Craig Williams

The I Am Invincible colt has proven distance credentials and the booking of Craig Williams suggests stable confidence. His inside barrier provides tactical advantage on the tight Lakeside circuit, and the Freedman stable often improves horses significantly between runs.

2nd pick5th
7Mongolian Mission

Our price $4.80 · SP $4.40 · Billy Egan

Billy Egan's current form (7 wins from 20 rides) adds confidence, though the 34-day gap is a minor concern.

3rd pick3rd
6Man Of The Sea

Our price $6.50 · SP $9.50 · Thomas Stockdale

Man Of The Sea brings winning momentum from his last start victory and the confidence of a perfect jockey combination. His improving form pattern and good barrier position are positives, but the class rise from maiden company and lack of soft track experience present risks in this stronger field.

Value pick4th
3Yauson

Our price $4.20 · SP $4.20 · Jett Stanley

Yauson represents excellent value as an impressive debut winner stepping up in class. The Waterhouse/Bott stable excels with young horses, and the 22% strike rate with Jett Stanley adds confidence.

Winner4. SantanaSP $2.50
★ Top pickWon
4Santana

Our price $2.80 · SP $2.50 · Luke Currie

The significant class drop from Open company to maiden level, combined with first-time winkers and strong Hawkes stable preparation, makes this the most likely winner despite the wide barrier.

2nd pick4th
7Avenue Montaigne

Our price $5.20 · SP $4.20 · Jordan Childs

The 145-day break is a concern, but the stable's first-up record and the filly's soft track second suggest she can be competitive fresh.

3rd pickScratched
8Irreverent

Our price $4.00 · Luke Nolen

Irreverent brings excellent consistency with 5 placings from 6 starts and draws perfectly in barrier 3 for Lakeside's tight layout. The recent Pakenham second confirms current form, and the strong Moody/Coleman stable with Luke Nolen booking suggests confidence in breaking the maiden.

Value pick3rd
2Fastobullet

Our price $4.50 · SP $7.00 · Lachlan Neindorf

The 181-day break is concerning, but the barrier 1 draw suits Lakeside's leaders bias perfectly, and the consistent form suggests ability to run a big race fresh.

9Lady Thinkabell

Our price $2.80 · SP $2.20 · Jackson Radley

Her soft track record (1:1-2-0) suits the expected conditions, and recent form shows consistent improvement. The narrow second at Ballarat followed by a maiden win demonstrates she's peaking at the right time.

2nd pickWon
6Sapphire Siren

Our price $4.20 · SP $3.90 · Teodore Nugent

Her fresh record (1:1-0-1) is impressive and recent close third at Pakenham shows she's maintained form. The lightly-raced profile suggests untapped potential, though the significant class rise from maiden company is concerning.

3rd pick6th
5Empress Of The Sun

Our price $6.50 · SP $6.50 · John Allen

Empress Of The Sun offers course familiarity with a previous placing at Sandown-Lakeside and proven ability at 2100m. The Harbinger mare has staying credentials and John Allen's booking suggests stable confidence. However, her soft track record (3:0-1-0) is concerning for today's conditions, and recent form has been disappointing. The class rise adds further difficulty, but her course experience provides an edge.

Value pick8th
2Cat Noir

Our price $6.50 · SP $9.00 · Craig Williams

Her recent close second at Cranbourne shows she's maintained ability, and Craig Williams' booking is a strong positive signal. The soft track win provides confidence for today's conditions.

6Gold Coast Belle

Our price $3.20 · SP $2.70 · Jordan Childs

Gold Coast Belle presents the strongest winning chance with a perfect placing record and impressive maiden victory last start. The So You Think filly has shown consistent improvement and her soft track placing suggests she'll handle today's conditions. The class rise is concerning but her upward trajectory and proven wet track ability make her the standout.

2nd pick2nd
3Dirty Look

Our price $4.80 · SP $3.30 · Daniel Stackhouse

The Super Seth filly shows natural ability and the step up to 1400m should suit. While the class rise is significant, her winning form and proven ability at the Sandown complex make her a serious threat.

3rd pickScratched
1Lyrics 'n' Song

Our price $4.50 · Logan Bates

Lyrics 'n' Song brings valuable black-type experience and a perfect second-up record. The Written Tycoon filly has shown she can handle soft conditions and the inside barrier is a significant advantage at Lakeside.

Value pick6th
9Till Queen

Our price $7.50 · SP $12.00 · Craig Williams

The Kingman filly has a perfect record at 1400m and the booking of Craig Williams suggests stable confidence. While the class rise is significant, her recent improvement and distance suitability make her worth an each-way investment.

4King Tut

Our price $3.50 · SP $7.00 · Ben Allen

King Tut presents as the most reliable winning chance despite the class rise. His dominant first-up victory at Caulfield Heath, carrying similar weight to today, demonstrates his current fitness and ability. The Ben Allen/Maher combination provides confidence, and his 40% win rate from limited starts suggests untapped potential. The barrier draw allows tactical flexibility on Lakeside's tight circuit.

2nd pick10th
10Scenic Point

Our price $6.00 · SP $6.50 · Mark Zahra

Scenic Point offers strong each-way value as a quality filly dropping significantly in class. Her 50% first-up win rate and Hayes stable's expertise with fresh horses provides confidence despite the long spell. The wide barrier is concerning on Lakeside's tight layout, but her class advantage and proven first-up ability make her a genuine threat.

3rd pick9th
3Highland Harley

Our price $8.00 · SP $11.00 · Craig Williams

Highland Harley brings the best distance form to this race with an outstanding 1200m record. His recent placings at Cranbourne show he's racing in career-best form, and the Craig Williams booking suggests stable confidence. The wide barrier is a concern, but his proven distance ability and consistent form make him a strong each-way chance.

Value pick3rd
15Persian Caviar

Our price $12.00 · SP $5.00 · Zac Spain

Persian Caviar represents exceptional value based on her elite breeding and perfect record. Being out of Black Caviar by Written Tycoon suggests she has untapped ability, and the Moody/Coleman stable's first-up record provides confidence.
