Best pure form in BM65 company on soft/heavy.

2nd pick9th

4Who Rox The House

Our price $5.50 · SP $3.80 · Rohan Mudhoo

Progressive mare with outstanding distance record (5:1-0-4), recent competitive BM65 form, ideal barrier 5 for Riverton leaders, and light weight. Lacks track experience but improving pattern and midfield map suit moderate-fast tempo perfectly.

3rd pick2nd

2Gentle Ben

Our price $8.00 · SP $13.00 · Daniel Bothamley

Local specialist with strong Riverton record (6:1-0-2), excellent distance stats, prime barrier 3 for on-pace bias, and proven soft/heavy performer. Class drop helps despite topweight; reliable place chance in upset-prone track.

Value pick5th

7Jail Bird

Our price $10.00 · SP $15.20 · Abdul Najib
