2Donatello
The Waller stable booking of Berry signals genuine intent. The class drop is the primary positive, but soft track form shows only 1 placing from 4 starts.

6Aurora Effect
Aurora Effect has the best wet track credentials in the field with placings on Heavy 8 and Heavy 9, including a recent 3rd at Hawkesbury on Heavy 8. Today's Soft 6 is slightly drier than her best form, but the wet track ability is genuine.
Value pick5th
7Chaithnia
The key positives are barrier 1 (ideal for Hawkesbury soft track), the significant jockey upgrade to Kerrin McEvoy (20% recent strike rate), and winkers applied first time signalling stable intent.

4Mind Ya Bizz
Mind Ya Bizz is the most credentialed runner in this field based on form and suitability. The distance drop from 1250m to 1100m is a positive, and Tommy Berry's booking (25% recent strike rate, 25% with Widdup) signals stable confidence. First-up record of 1 place, 1 third from 2 attempts suggests she handles fresh. Main concern is the 139-day spell.
2nd pick3rd
6Rising Revolution
Barrier 1 is the prime draw for soft Hawkesbury conditions. The Ryan/Alexiou stable is elite and Schiller retains the ride. However, 266 days off the track is a significant concern, and gear changes (lugging bit) suggest behavioural issues to address. With only one career start, form reliability is limited.
3rd pick4th
3Ho Aloha
The Alysha Collett/Pfieffer combination has produced 0 wins from 16 rides.
Value pickWon
9Scuro Star
Scuro Star is a complete unknown with no public form data, but the Peter Snowden/Rachel King combination is the strongest trainer-jockey pairing in the field by strike rate (33%). Snowden is an elite trainer with a strong record of having first starters ready, and Rachel King's engagement signals genuine stable confidence. Barrier 7 and soft conditions add risk, but the connections profile justifies a small each-way investment.

Heard Of Him is a lightly raced 2yo from the elite Freedman stable with only 1 career start. The Freedman operation typically produces well-prepared horses and jockey Ashley Morgan has a solid 16% win rate at Hawkesbury.

Winner5. Hammoon HeroineSP $6.00
★ Top pick5th
6Obsidian Dream
Obsidian Dream is the standout form runner in this field. Her form trajectory of 7-6-4-2-1 is compelling, and she handles wet ground well (1 win from 1 heavy start, 1 place from 1 soft start). The Clipperton/Pride combination fires at 33%.
2nd pickWon
5Hammoon Heroine
Hammoon Heroine has strong credentials for today's conditions. Her soft track record of 1-1-1 from 4 starts is the best wet-track profile in the field, and she won at exactly 1500m on Soft 5 in April. The 1500m distance record of 2:1-1-0 is compelling. Barrier 4 suits the Hawkesbury soft track pattern of settling forward. The main concern is the jockey booking and last-start Class 1 defeat, but the conditions and distance suit well.
3rd pick3rd
1Abandonment
Abandonment presents a mixed profile. The Tommy Berry booking and significant class drop are positives, and the heavy track record (1-1-1 from 4 starts) shows wet ground ability. However, the 299-day spell with a first-up record of 0 wins from 1 start, all form from New Zealand, and no soft track placings create genuine uncertainty.
Value pick4th
7Rose Water
Rose Water drops in class and draws ideally in barrier 2 for Hawkesbury's soft track pattern. The second at Newcastle Class 1 over 1500m in April shows she can compete at this level and distance. However, the jockey booking of Siena Grima (0 wins from last 20 rides) is a significant negative, and the soft track record shows no wins.

6Reign 'em In
Reign 'em In is the standout selection based on form evidence. The Soft 6 conditions today mirror her best performances. Tom Sherry is in excellent form at 20% recent strike rate and 21% at Hawkesbury. She maps forward and should settle on pace, which is the decisive advantage on this track.
2nd pick3rd
3Majestic Legend
Jason Collett is a strong booking with a 25% strike rate with trainer Bridge. However, the 131-day spell, poor soft track record (0 from 2), and barrier 6 on soft ground are concerns. First-up record is also winless.
3rd pickScratched
2Lady Invictus
However, barrier 8 is a genuine concern on Hawkesbury soft track where inside draws are advantageous. Her only race start resulted in a 6th placing. The proxy evaluation supports her chance through trainer quality and jockey intent, but the wide draw and first-up status create meaningful risk.
Value pick6th
8Shangri La Rose
The stable clearly has confidence running two horses in the same race. The inside barrier is a significant advantage over stablemate Lady Invictus in barrier 8. Pure speculative value play.

★ Top pick4th
2Sapling
Sapling is the clear form pick dropping significantly in class from BM72/BM64 back to Class 1. Her soft track record of 1 win and 1 place from 4 starts on wet ground is the standout credential in this field. McEvoy's booking at this level is a strong intent signal. The class drop is the decisive factor.
2nd pickWon
1Rustemo
Barrier 2 is ideal for Hawkesbury's soft track bias favouring inside draws. The concern is a soft track record of 0 wins from 2 starts and a class rise from Maiden to Class 1. Collett retained is a positive signal. Second-up fitness should be improved from the first-up win.
3rd pick2nd
8Turning Circle
Turning Circle's extensive soft track record of 1 win, 1 place and 4 thirds from 8 soft starts is the key credential. She won on Soft 6 at Wyong over 1350m in April, making today's conditions and distance familiar. The Llewellyn/Doyle combination fires at 24%. However, rising in class from Maiden/BM58 to Class 1 and a declining recent form trend temper enthusiasm.
Value pick3rd
4Hunter One
Her recent form shows consistent placings at Class 1 level. However, barrier 9 is a major negative on soft Hawkesbury where inside draws dominate, and Brock Ryan's 3% strike rate with the trainer is a significant concern. The value case is marginal given the barrier and jockey negatives.

Light Infantry arrives second up from a spell having won on Soft 6 at Parkes just 18 days ago. Jason Collett's booking adds significant intent signal. The second-up record (1 from 2) supports improvement.

1Divine Vicky
Divine Vicky has two wins on soft ground including a Soft 6 victory over 1100m at BM64 level at Gosford in July 2025 - directly relevant conditions to today. Barrier 3 is ideal for Hawkesbury on soft ground. The main concern is jockey Siena Grima's current form drought (0 from 20 recent rides), which tempers confidence despite the strong wet track credentials.
3rd pick4th

However, 152 days between runs is a significant concern, and jockey Jeff Penza is in poor current form (1 from 20 recent rides). The soft track record shows one win but the last start was a poor 12th.

7Lady Shenanigans
Lady Shenanigans is a genuine Hawkesbury soft track specialist having won at this exact track, distance, and condition (Soft 6, 1100m, BM64) in September 2025. The main concerns are very poor recent form and a jockey with a 3% strike rate at Hawkesbury.

Binkou presents an interesting second-up angle with a 2-from-4 second-up record, and the barrier 2 draw is perfectly suited to soft Hawkesbury conditions. The horse has placed at this track on soft ground previously and handles the conditions. However, recent form has been poor and the jockey/trainer combination has no wins together.
