Winner3. ModsSP $2.70
2nd pickWon
3Mods
The risks are that he normally settles back, which isn't ideal in a slowly-run race, and that his only 1300m start was poor. The inside draw helps.
3rd pick6th
7Pafitis
Pafitis should lead unchallenged from barrier 2, which is a big advantage on this map, and the Clarke-Todd partnership is formidable at Fannie Bay. He has placed often, but he has only one win and has faded when out in front in several starts.
Value pick4th
2Warrego
Warrego has been running well in this class at Fannie Bay, winning one start and finishing second the next, and he should settle handy in a slowly-run race. The trip is a small question mark and he carries top weight, but he is fit and well placed.

Winner1. Field Of FlutesSP $4.00
★ Top pickWon
1Field Of Flutes
On form he is the best horse in the race. He has won his last two against good company and gets Todd back, who has a big record on him. The slow tempo suits a handy runner. Top weight and the extra 100m over his usual trips are risks, but his style should see him stay the trip.
2nd pick3rd
2Struck Gold
He has run well at 1300m in recent starts.
3rd pick5th
6Hennessy Lad
Likely to bounce out and lead in a slow-run race, which helps. His last-start win at 1600m was a strong run and he is well weighted. He has been headed late when leading over 1300m before, and rider Angel Brennan is cold, so he is a danger more than a leading pick.
Value pick6th
5Gravina
He has proven class from city-level racing and his run over this trip here in August was strong. He gets a light weight and is overpriced against horses with narrower credentials.

Winner1. Ask Your MotherSP $4.20
★ Top pick3rd
5Pierre Le Quill
Pierre Le Quill has been the most reliable and best-performed maiden here. The moderate tempo and midweek trends suit a stalker.
2nd pick4th
6Prince Of Sparta
Prince Of Sparta has been competitive at the track, going down by half a length in a maiden before a fair handicap run. Dropping back to maiden level should help, and its early speed suits a moderate pace. The wide draw and a tendency to over-race keep it behind the top pick, but it looks a sound place and win chance.
3rd pick2nd
2Be Brief
Its form is thin: it tired over this trip last time and has not run a place. It rates a place chance but not the top pick.
Value pickWon
1Ask Your Mother
Ask Your Mother has been placed often and has run some of the best races of any runner here. Barrier one and a moderate pace give him the best chance to lead and dictate.

Winner1. CavernSP $3.70
★ Top pickWon
1Cavern
He won over this course and distance in August with a strong time and looks ready first up. The big concern is top weight in a Class 2 plus the break since a poor run in May, when he pulled up lame.
2nd pick9th
3Bold Suitor
The Class 2 field is stronger than the Bm54 he just lost, and he carries solid weight.
999th pickScratched
2Tears Are Flowing
Best form in the race on a class-for-class basis. She won a Class 2 here in August and finished second in the same grade last start after a slow beginning. Her recent runs show she gets home well, and with only a moderate tempo expected the 1100m trip should suit.

16:33 local1100mRest. 70$24,500
Winner8. Steamy MistSP $3.50
★ Top pick2nd
2Littlebourkestreet
She has been first or second in her last five starts at Fannie Bay, and her recent runs are the best in this field. She drops slightly in class, and Shiers is in hot form. The wide draw and 59kg are the risks, but she has the early speed to get a handy position.
2nd pickWon
8Steamy Mist
Steamy Mist won last start in a performance that stood up well against this field. She is second up and has the early speed to sit just behind the leader on a map that suits on-pace runners. The class rise is a worry and she has little form over 1100m, but she comes in with momentum. She is a solid place and win threat rather than a standout.
3rd pick3rd
6Alaa Plenty
Alaa Plenty is a hard horse to separate from the others, and it is the Clarke and Todd combination that draws me to him. He has three wins from nine starts at 1100m, and the stable is in strong form. His last two runs were flat and he has not raced at this track.
Value pick6th
3Patriotic King
Patriotic King is the value in this race. He has won five times at this track and distance and won his last start there. Gary Clarke's stable is in great form and the horse should get a handy run from barrier 2.

Winner3. Biden TimeSP $3.70
★ Top pickWon
3Biden Time
The most likely winner. He controlled the race from outside the leader and won with something in hand over this trip last start, and his record here at the mile is the best in the field. Drawn perfectly to slot in behind the one genuine speed runner in a race without much tempo, and the leading stable-jockey combination has him firing. The step up in grade is the only query, but nothing in this field has his profile at this track and trip.
2nd pick4th
2Villa Seventynine
He brings the strongest class form into this, running second over the mile in a 70-grade handicap last start after racing keen and wide through the middle stages. He drops in grade today and has rarely run a poor race at Fannie Bay, with three wins and three placings here.
3rd pick3rd
6Sass
She made it three track wins from 14 starts with a strong-finishing victory over this trip last start and she is the one who can lead a race with little early pressure. If she crosses cheaply from the outside gate she can dictate, and her record at Fannie Bay is nearly unmatched in this field. The query is the rise in grade and whether she has to spend early petrol at 1600m. A live chance, but behind the two class runners.
Value pick10th
7I'm A Dreamer
He has four wins and four seconds from 15 starts over this exact course and distance, and he ran a solid second over this trip here last start. With the light weight, a soft midfield position and a race that should be run at only a moderate gallop, he can be closing late in a field where several get back and few finish off.
