3Miami Baby
Miami Baby is the model of Fannie Bay consistency - placed in 8 of his last 10 runs with strong course form (2-0-6 from 14 starts here). Jason Lyon's outstanding combination stats (33% on this horse, 30% recent overall) and a workable gate make him a genuine winning hope, even though he needs to convert placings into a win.
3rd pick3rd
1I Loverain
I Loverain has proven black-type-level form at Fannie Bay, including a win at today's exact grade earlier in the campaign, and drops in class after facing tougher company.

3Yule Point
Yule Point arrives in career-best form with back-to-back wins, the latest at this exact track. Drawn ideally in gate 3, which is the strongest predictor of success at Fannie Bay.
2nd pick5th
1Hammurabi
Hammurabi has a strong overall record at Fannie Bay (2 wins from 3) and represents a slight class drop from his most recent run in Open company.
3rd pick3rd
2Voronya
Despite a wider barrier than ideal, the horse's superior turn of foot and current form trend make it a genuine each-way threat capable of running down the leaders in a likely tactical, slow-tempo race.
Value pick6th
5Si Senora
The addition of blinkers for the first time is a notable positive signal, and the ideal barrier 2 draw suits this tight, draw-biased circuit. Modest overall strike rate is offset by clear recent improvement and situational advantages.

4Opulent Oscar
Opulent Oscar offers the second-best form profile in the race with genuine placings from a competitive career, but the wide gate is a considerable knock at Fannie Bay where inside draws dominate. Second-up and with the trainer riding his own runner, there's clear intent, but he needs to overcome the draw to feature in the finish.
3rd pick2nd
10Flash Kermy
Flash Kermy drops sharply in class after facing Bench 66 company, and gets a prized inside barrier at a track where gate position is king. A166 leading rider colours would have helped, but the map and class relief make this a genuine playable contender.

8Anson Bay
Anson Bay is flying with the best form in the race - three placings/wins from his last three starts including a win at this track and trip range. Leading rider engagement and trainer/jockey synergy add confidence.
2nd pickWon
2Zourata
Zourata draws the rail in a race where barrier is the single most reliable factor at Fannie Bay, and boasts an outstanding course-and-distance record (4 wins from 6). Racing at the same grade level today with consistent recent placings, he presents as a genuine each-way and possible winning threat, even though his rival Anson Bay's recent trajectory edges him out for top spot.
3rd pick5th
1Field Of Flutes
Class rise from Bench 78 tempers enthusiasm slightly, but the horse's proven placing ability and sound recent trend keep him firmly in contention for a top-three finish.

Barrier 4 suits the track's strong inside bias, and the horse is proven second-up. Despite a class rise, the current form trajectory and course suitability make this the most likely winner on pure form grounds.
2nd pick4th
3Kissing Supido
Kissing Supido steps up in grade off a narrow last-start defeat, but the extensive course experience, ideal barrier, and outstanding rider in Jarrod Todd (17% at Fannie Bay) provide a strong case.
3rd pickWon
1Jumping Power Two
Jumping Power Two draws the rail in a track where barrier is the dominant form factor, and holds a superb record at Fannie Bay (4 wins from 6). Consistent recent form and course affinity make this a genuine top-three contender.
Value pick2nd
2Throw At Da Stumps
Throw At Da Stumps offers value as a fitter, class-relieved runner returning first-up with a genuinely useful record fresh (5:1-1-2). The favourable barrier plays to the Fannie Bay bias, and the drop in grade should suit.

3Fury
Fury is the clear form standout - fresh off a dominant course/distance win, showing consistent improvement across recent starts against tougher Class 2 fields, and boasting the best jockey/trainer synergy in the race. Best credentials to lead the slow-tempo race and control proceedings from a workable draw.
2nd pick6th
4Rock Revolution
Rock Revolution's ideal inside barrier and proven affinity for Fannie Bay at 1600m make him a major threat in a race with only one genuine leader. Solid placing chance with each-way claims.
3rd pick3rd
2Wine Barron
Wine Barron arrives well-bred and drops significantly in grade after competing at Open level, with a solid recent win at Morphettville. Class relief and a good gate offer some hope, but he needs to bounce back from a plain run.

9Stormfront
Stormfront presents the strongest combination of course form, situational fitness (second-up) and tactical suitability for a slow-tempo 1600m at Fannie Bay. His track record here is outstanding and he has the class credentials plus forward tactical speed to control or press the race from a workable draw, representing the most likely winner on pure form grounds.
2nd pick2nd
8Rematch
The class rise from restricted grade is a genuine query, but the manner of his recent win and tactical versatility make him a leading each-way and place threat, narrowly behind Stormfront on class-adjusted assessment.
3rd pick3rd
1Magic Defense
Magic Defense offers reliable, consistent form with an ideal barrier draw for Fannie Bay's tight turning circuit. Her recent win at this same track/distance combination and high place strike rate make her a genuine each-way threat, rounding out a competitive podium picture without quite matching the tactical edge of the top two selections.
