★ Top pick2nd
1Liyah's Girl

Our price $2.75 · SP $2.60 · Grant Buckley

The one they all have to beat. She ran second over this course and distance last start, the best recent form line in the race, and has been placed every time she has come to Canberra over this trip. She settles handy and a slow tempo plays to her.

2nd pick3rd
2Unmatched

Our price $5.50 · SP $7.50 · Emma Ly

He owns the biggest peak run in the pack — his Goulburn Class 1 win over further, on a soft track, is the strongest recent performance of any runner here. He drops in grade from BM58, is improving, and has the speed to sit handy in a slow race. The knock is the ground: he wants give in it and has never run to that level on a firm surface.

3rd pickWon
3Star Turn Dancer

Our price $7.00 · SP $6.00 · Jean Van Overmeire

She maps well — she races forward, a slow tempo at Canberra suits, and she has a jockey riding at 35% winners. Her best Class 1 form has come over a staying trip. But she has been plain at her last two, including a well-beaten eighth here over this course and distance, so she is a place-first proposition rather than a winning one.

Value pick6th
7Torpedo Ted

Our price $14.00 · SP $21.00 · Jeff Penza

He is the roughie worth a small each-way ticket. He draws the rail and rolls forward, and a slowly-run staying race at Canberra — where horses on the speed do best — gives him a genuine shout to stick on for a place.

Winner3. Showtime MaggieSP $6.00
★ Top pick2nd
2Inna Zou

Our price $3.60 · SP $3.50 · Emma Ly

Won her last start at this track and grade, sweeping home from the tail, and on recent form she is the safest winning hope in a wide-open race. She is fit and well suited by what shapes as a genuinely run contest. The queries are the step out to 1200m and a modest record on firmer ground, but her closing surge should have her in the finish.

2nd pick4th
4Minks Written

Our price $5.00 · SP $6.00 · Pierre Boudvillain

Drops sharply in grade after mixing it in tougher company and owns the best performance in this field, a near-miss over a sprint trip. First-time visors could sharpen her, she maps to settle handy and she gets the track's most successful rider. The risks are the step out to 1200m and an ordinary overall win record.

3rd pickWon
3Showtime Maggie

Our price $7.00 · SP $6.00 · Glenn Cahill

A consistent mare who has already won over this course and distance and drops to a winnable grade. She has been finding the line for placings in stronger races. The worry is the outside draw, which will force her further back, so she needs the quick early tempo to give her a chance to run on late.

Value pick11th
9Beau Rock

Our price $18.00 · SP $26.00 · Teaghan Martin

An old stager who saves his best for Canberra, with three wins over this exact course and distance and a solid record on firmer ground.

Winner2. FeazabeelSP $1.85
★ Top pickWon
2Feazabeel

Our price $2.40 · SP $1.85 · Mollie Fitzgerald

Won over this track and trip last start, running down Miss Stalwart by half a length, and has three wins from four at the mile. Settles midfield and finishes hard, which suits if the tempo is slow. Rises in class from BM65 and is still to win on good ground, but he is improving and the stable is firing at this track.

2nd pick4th
5Miss Stalwart

Our price $4.20 · SP $3.70 · Jess Taylor

Rates the obvious danger. An on-pace mare who should be suited by a slow tempo and the track's forward bias, and she has a terrific record at Canberra with five wins here. Rising in grade but she has genuine claims.

3rd pick2nd
1Mighty Myrtle

Our price $7.00 · SP $4.60 · Dale Cole

Drops in class after contesting stronger races and is a consistent mare who is usually around the finish. Won twice at this track earlier in her career and ran a close second at Kembla two starts back. The query is the mile - she has had two tries without placing - and as a backmarker she may be disadvantaged in a slowly-run race.

Value pick3rd
6Spurline

Our price $8.00 · SP $13.00 · Winona Costin

Honest mare who is a genuine 1600m horse with three wins at the trip and an improving profile. Closed off well for fourth over the trip at Goulburn last start and draws to sit handy.

3Lucsain

Our price $1.90 · SP $1.22 · Jay Ford

Unraced five-year-old mare from a strong Sydney yard who has won three of her last four trials, including a soft Rosehill victory. The query is her get-back pattern at a track where maidens are hard to win from off the pace; if she jumps cleanly her class should prove decisive.

2nd pick10th
2Wild Romeo

Our price $5.00 · SP $16.00 · Mollie Fitzgerald

Speedy four-year-old who leads and comes off a narrow second at Queanbeyan on a soft track, the best recent performance in the field. Suits the strong on-pace bias at Canberra and only needs to repeat that effort to be right in the finish.

3rd pick4th
12Prairie Star

Our price $7.50 · SP $10.00 · Andrew Adkins

Debutant filly from a leading Sydney stable with a good trial placing behind her. The jockey rides this track particularly well, and the inside draw is a plus. She is expected to settle back, though, and in a Canberra maiden that can be a tough ask when the speed is hard to run down. Capable of a forward showing if the tempo is genuine.

Value pick6th
8Highwire Artist

Our price $11.00 · SP $16.00 · Rebecca Bronett Prag

Second-up sprinter who finished a closing third over this course and distance last start after being slowly away. Maps to race on the pace, which is a real plus in Canberra maidens, and his trainer's recent form suggests further improvement is likely.

7She's The Key

Our price $4.50 · SP $8.50 · Jean Van Overmeire

A mare in career-best form who won at Wagga last time and produced a huge run for third at Gundagai before that. She has the early speed to be prominent from a good gate and gets the in-form Jean Van Overmeire aboard, a jockey riding with great confidence.

2nd pick7th
4Cool Blaze

Our price $5.00 · SP $3.90 · Robyn Freeman

Portelli's mare has been freshened with a trial and should settle in the first half of the field. Her recent numbers read badly but two of those were in much stronger company, and back to a country class 60 she gets her chance.

10Prophet Time

11Hello G'day

Our price $1.90 · SP $1.45 · Mollie Fitzgerald

Three-year-old filly who went down by a whisker over this trip last start after charging home late, clearly the strongest recent effort in the line-up. Well weighted and has a stable and rider who both go well here. She settles a touch off the speed but maps closer to the lead than her main rivals, so a slowly-run race is the query rather than her ability.

2nd pickWon
1First Assault

Our price $7.00 · SP $8.00 · Jordan Quince

Resuming four-year-old whose runner-up effort over further two starts ago was one of the stronger runs in this line-up, closing hard late. Drawn nicely to sit close to the speed and has the ability to be in the finish if ready on the break. The query is the first-up run after a long spell at a trip shorter than his best.

3rd pick6th
13Morosini

Our price $9.00 · SP $13.00 · Louise Day

Progressive three-year-old who improved again when a charging third here two weeks ago after being held up on straightening. Trained by a leading stable that wins its share at this track and carries a light weight. The knock is a wide gate and a get-back style at a course where maidens are usually dominated by forward runners.

Value pick8th
2Groundcover

Our price $15.00 · SP $26.00 · Andrew Adkins

Roughie who ran a smart third at Queanbeyan two starts back before an excusable effort last time when interfered with at the start. Second-up now and his rider has an excellent record at this track, plus a kind inside draw.

2Vella's Best

Our price $3.60 · SP $2.70 · Nick Heywood

Lone speed runner who has won all three of his starts over this track and trip and arrives off a strong city win. He should control a moderate tempo from the front and prove very hard to run down.

2nd pick3rd
5Action King

Our price $5.50 · SP $3.80 · Blaike McDougall

The inside alley helps him save ground, but he settles a long way back and will need luck in a race where the leader is likely to get an easy time in front.

11Dawn On Me

10Judith's Revenge

Our price $2.20 · SP $2.25 · Mathew Cahill

She was beaten only a nose in a Class 2 at Wagga last start and now meets that same winner a long way better at the weights, so she should turn the tables. A 15-start mare with six seconds and four thirds, she is second-up and saves her best for good ground. The one query is a get-back style on a track that rewards forward runners.

2nd pick3rd
2Kool Kade

Our price $4.80 · SP $4.40 · Donovan Dillon

The only genuine leader and he should get an uncontested time of it, which suits this course. The concern is that both of his wins have come on softer ground, and he now hands a big weight swing to that mare, so he looks a strong place chance rather than a clear win prospect.

3rd pick2nd
11Kendalia

Our price $8.00 · SP $4.40 · Louise Day

A model of consistency who ran second at this track and grade last start, beaten under a length, and has placed at this exact trip here before. She gets home strongly but is a get-back type on a course that rewards forward runners, and with just one win from 17 starts she tends to find one better.

Value pick8th
5Skibidi

Our price $11.00 · SP $31.00 · Sairyn Fawke

A genuine each-way overlay on the best value line. He won two of his last four, closing strongly to score each time, before a forgive run in a far stronger Highway at Rosehill. The knock is the class rise and no good-ground form yet.
