BEST BETS
R4 n1 HA’PENNY HATCH Maps suits behind leaders and off fence. 3rd up off 14 days rises 4kg and out to 1400m (+200m). Last start Twba Guineas began well and was then taken back to sit 5th on an even tempo wide no cover before being ridden up the hill mid race. Ran 5th to Cryptolini (who had its back) beaten 3.4L. It was an awful ride-she was given zero by the jockey. Out to 1400m today, had no favours last prep when out to 1350m behind Sunrays beaten 2.8L. Up to 59kg but maps a lot better today with a positive gear/ riding change and keen she wins
R7 n13 VICTORY FLAME Positive early from draw. 6th up off 14 days drops 7kg and stays at 1800m. Last start BM60 EFarm drew inside sat 4th early on a very fast tempo 5L off leader. Got to the front late in straight but was beaten on the line by Evelyn May. Race rated strongly and L200m figure there off that tempo was strong. Gets B Thompson on in a huge riding switch, ready to win.
R8 n10 SO YOU ARE Forward on map behind lead group. 7th up on 7 day back up drops 2.5kg out to 2400m (+200m). Last start BM78 Doomben with blinkers on again led and controlled on a fast tempo and went for home from the 600m and far too classy late winning by 2.7L. Race rated highly and he was far too classy for them there. Forward on map again today with 53kg and 2400m won’t be an issue. Was only 2.2L off Soul Of Spain and Royal Supremacy two starts back in Newcastle Cup. That’s a great reference for here and he is a tough horse.
R9 n10 FUKUBANA Back MF on map. Resumes off 126 day spell and two trials. Won most recent Grafton 940m Sept 22 by 2.4L. A Mallyon rode in trial. He sat back off them there MF and wider and cruised away late to win under a hold. It was a very impressive trial. Proven fresh and at EFarm and his start prior to spelling drew outside went forward to lead on a fast tempo beaten 1.4L by Transatlantic- high rating race. Has a class edge on these horses and should win.
R10 n6 TAVS Ridden quieter early to get a spot MF with cover. 2d up off 14 days rises 3kg out to 1400m (+200m). Last start resumed off 112 days Listed Toowoomba sat back 7th 5L off leader on a fast tempo and exploded in the straight to win by 4.6L in course record time. Race rated dominant best for the meeting and his L600m figure off that tempo was outstanding. 2nd up today off a career peak can be challenging and will need a good ride early. Loves EFarm and 1400m on dry tracks but will need a great ride early today.

R2 n5 POINT BARROW Back last on map. 4th up off 15 days and stays at 1200m. Last start Group 3 MValley out to 1200m drew outside went back last 8L off leader on an even tempo and was outstanding late there running 3rd to Snow Mercy (who had EPC) beaten 0.8L. Her closing figures there were on a par with the Group One horses in the Manikato at that meeting. Quality filly in strong stable who will be charging home late from back on the map.
R7 n5 SEPALS Forward early inside. 3a up off 21 days rises 5kg out to 1600m (+200m). Last start when 2nd up Caulfield Group 1 on a firm track with a +6m rail. Was 2nd up staying at 1400m drew outside crossed early to sit 2nd on a crazy fast tempo and kept running in the straight to win impressively by 0.8L. Race rated enormously but he did have only 52kg off a brilliant ride and Angel Ruler was desperately unlucky behind him. 2nd prep now for him and a Group 1 winner- he is a high class horse. 1600m no issue today of this map/tempo up front. Keen he wins.
R9 n6 TROPICUS Positive early to be on speed. 2d up off 42 days and impressively won recent 1000m trial Caulfield Oct 2nd -D Lane rode in trial. Last start resumed off 126 days Group 3 Caulfield S5 track led inside early on a fast tempo and was way too strong late winning by 2.2L. Race rated very highly and his L600m figure off that tempo was brilliant. That was a high-quality win. Proven 2nd up and is a good horse. Can go on with it.

R2 n5 MODELLA MF on map and suited. 3rd up off 14 days rises 3.5kg and stays at 1400m. Last start Group 2 Rosehill drew outside sat back last early on a slow tempo 10L off leader and no hope of winning in that class of race from back there. Had a big 600-200m figure when wide making her run and only tired late beaten 3.4L by Manaal. Resuming run prior in this class had meeting fastest L400m figure (Autumn Glow was 2’ª) over 1200m this class off a wide draw. Maps closer today and looks the winner.
R5 n2 FARNICLE Forward inside on speed. 21ª up off 14 days drops 1kg out to 1400m (+300m). Last start resumed off 105 days 3YO Listed (syn hoof filler f/time) sat back 8th outside 6L off leader on a slow tempo and ran home hard late when 6th beaten 1.1L by Marhoona. Race rated fairly and it was a bunched finish but he closed off powerfully L400m there. Nice colt out to 1400m quickly which will suit off this map and has strong QLD winter form for a race like this.
R7 n6 GANGSTA GRANNY Forward on map to be 4th in 1/1. 3rd up off 28 days and stays at 1200m. Last start F/M Group 2 SWP Rosehill S5 track where you had to be on fence and inside on the +6m rail. Was 2nd up drew outside in small field and sat 3 wide no cover out on a limb on a slow tempo. Very poor ride by T Schiller and was beaten 1.7L by Manaal and race rated well. Proven at 1200m and maps better today, hard to beat.
R10 n3 ROSELYNS’S STAR Maps 3P back outside and suited. 4th up off 14 days rises 1kg and stays at 1100m. Last start off 28 days back onto a dry track sat back 6th 4L off leader on a fast tempo and took over in straight before being run down by Monte Supreme. His closing figures off that tempo were excellent and the winner there pulled out a freakish effort to run him down late with a gap back to the others. Keen he wins today.

R5 n6 KAY TEE WHY 2nd up off 21 days rises 2.5kg and stays at 1000m. Last start BM72 Belmont S5 track resumed off 126 days sat back 4th 3L off lead on an even tempo and was way too good late from there winning by 1.3L. Figures from race were strong and he had a meeting dominant L400m. Nice horse with all three wins at 1000m and keen he rounds these up late and wins again.
