Form Analysis by Rob Auber
Race 1:
OVERVIEW: MACHANE SAID (4) locally trained runner has been racing well and draws to settle handy. Looks well placed to be fighting out the finish. TALLULAH LEE (8) has returned to racing in outstanding form having won both race starts this campaign leading throughout. Just as effective when driven with a sit and just needs to find an opening and she can win again!!! AXE AND DEEZ (6) nice run first up when hitting the line strongly against good opposition. Fitter here and will be running on late again here. Definite chance. Both JUDES DUDE (1) and HAMMER DAN (3) have favourable draws and can settle just behind the speed. Can threaten. HARRYS A ROCKSTAR (5) ROCKETS MATE (9) PLAINS IN HEAVEN (10) EL BOSTON (11) and BUSLOAD OF FAITH (7) are horses that will be running on late and are amongst the place and first four chances.

Race 2:
OVERVIEW: ATA RANGI (4) resuming from a spell and showed last campaign to have plenty of natural ability but was still learning his craft. Can run well fresh. ISLAND CAESAR (1) speedy pacer that gets a plum draw and can run on the speed. Should be in this for a long way. IM WESLEY (8) drawn to get an ideal trip and if the openings come his way, he’s a major threat. YNOBE DAKOTA (2) specked at odds when first up and was closing late. Drawn well and is a definite chance. CAN BE A RUEBE (3) lightly raced filly resuming from a spell and showed good talent last campaign. Must be respected. CITY ROCKSTAR (9) does have a nice trailing draw to follow through and can’t be dismissed. MISTIE REIGN (7) first up and drawn wide and will be running on late. ROYLANCE (5) MORVAH (6) BULLETPROOF SNIPER (10) are amongst the place and first four hopes.

SUGGESTED BET: ATA RANGI (4) to Win.
Race 3:
OVERVIEW: OLIVIA ROSE (10) freshened up since her unplaced run but was an impressive winner prior to that. Drawn the second row and if the temp is solid, she will be running home strongly. NOTHING SWEETER (2) drawn well and does have gate speed and should settle on the speed and be in this for a long way. ILLAWONG PHOENIX (4) ran well when first up and strips fitter. Expect a forward showing. BLACKMIRRA (7) resumes from a long spell but has showed ability in the past and despite the wide draw might run well fresh. SWEET REVENGE (9) will find this easier than recent starts and from a nice trailing draw expect improvement. FEEL THE BUZZ (6) fitter now and can keep improving and should be running home late and has claims along with BLAZIN HEAVEN (5) whilst SCRITTORE (8) GROOM (3) and CEE CEE NORMAN (1) are first four hopes.

Race 4:
OVERVIEW: ANOTHER COLLECT (5) does have the race experience and all three starts have been encouraging and expect a strong showing here. First starters MISTER EVOLUTION (4) and ZION JEWEL (1) are showing their share of promise at the trials and have good ability. Expect forward showings from the debutantes. LOVE A BELLE (3) is a local runner that resumes and can be an improver fresh, a forward showing would not surprise. FIRE MARSHALL (8) is a 2yo that run well at his race debut and drawn to get a soft trip. Sure to be improved by the race experience and can threaten if the breaks come his way. GOODTIME MAE (2) placed last start and is a first four hope along with MUSELET (9) PLATINUMS BOY (6) TRIROCKIN (7) and RIDDLEMETHIS (10)

Race 5:
OVERVIEW: DANCINGONSTARLIGHT (4) has been racing well without winning but each run suggests a win isn’t far away. Each way chance and can run well. EYE SEE AMOUR (5) nice effort last start and finished off strongly. Definite chance. HAMELDAEME (6) will be improved by his first up run and does have ability when right. Tough pacer that can run well here. SOUTHPAW SLUGGER (9) has arrived form the Sunraysia district and joins the astute Freddy Taiba stable. One of the chances. SASSCILIAN (3) hasn’t enjoyed much luck in recent starts and does have gate speed and can race in a forward position along with ALPHA CRUCIS (2) and both will be in it for a long way.

Race 6:
OVERVIEW: ESS KAY HOLLYWOOD (6) is a fast beginner and relishes the sprint trip and looks well placed to race on the speed and can give a bold sight. Hard to hold out whilst stable mate BLANCO CANYON (2) has drawn well and should be in it for a long way. The Ken Tippett trained runners RIGHT OF REPLY (4) is racing with great zest and HILLWINSOME (5) broke through for an overdue win two stats ago, both horses are winning chances.
