    3 Just Bolts  
    Dividend : $1.90
    Place
    F: 523   B(2)  W(58.0)
     ( J- Jake Noonan )
     ( T- Jamie Edwards )
    It comes off consecutive placings and it shouldn't take long to win a race. Barrier two is ideal, and the odds appeal.
    Main Danger
    4 Rank'n'file  
    F:   B(7)  W(58.0)
     ( J- Michael Dee )
     ( T- B, W & JD Hayes )
    On debut for a good stable and there has been plenty of money for it. It comes off consecutive trial wins, so include it.

    F: 20   B(9)  W(58.0)
     ( J- Jye McNeil )
     ( T- Griffiths/de Kock )
    We liked its second placing on debut. Didn't fire last time out but we're expecting a much better effort this time around.
    Consider

    Dividend : 
    Place
    F:   B(3)  W(56.0)
     ( J- Joe Bowditch )
     ( T- Griffiths/de Kock )
    Solid jumpout form and it could be right in the mix. Drawn well and despite drifting odds, it's worth including.

    2 If I Was You  
    F:   B(7)  W(58.0)
     ( J- Jordan Childs )
     ( T- M & L Kavanagh )
    Another runner with solid jumpout form in the city. Good enough to win here.

    The 'Day's Best'
    4 Ortega  
    Dividend : 
    Place
    F: X532X   B(4)  W(59.5)
     ( J- Blaike McDougall )
     ( T- Michael Kent )
    It looks ready to win and the wet conditions shouldn't worry it too much. Shortening odds aren't surprising.
    Main Danger
    1 Flying Knee  
    Dividend : $3.60, $0.00
    Won
    F: 2X2   B(1)  W(59.5)
     ( J- Craig Newitt )
     ( T- Clinton McDonald )
    Two starts for two second placings, so it's another runner with plenty of upside. Inside draw should help.

    Place
    F: 9X   B(2)  W(59.5)
     ( J- Brian Higgins )
     ( T- A & J Williams )
    Didn't fire when ninth on debut, but it looks to have improved with a spell. Watch for more money coming.

    9 Wayhere  
    F:   B(6)  W(57.5)
     ( J- Carleen Hefel )
     ( T- Bill Papazaharoudakis )
    Solid enough at the jumpouts. A patiently-handled five-year-old, so the patience could pay off.
    Longer Odds
    8 Thalassa  
    F: 9X   B(3)  W(57.5)
     ( J- Daniel Stackhouse )
     ( T- Matt Laurie )

    F: 4327X   B(1)  W(59.5)
     ( J- Jamie Mott )
     ( T- John McArdle )
    Prefer to take the longer odds with Lolly Money, who should handle the wet conditions. Inside draw is a bonus.

    Place
    F: 2X   B(3)  W(59.5)
     ( J- Carleen Hefel )
     ( T- Enver Jusufovic )
    Runs at short odds following a second on debut before spelling. That's usually a good sign.

    14 Nicoise Girl  
    F:   B(3)  W(56.0)
     ( J- Jordan Childs )
     ( T- Chris Waller )
    On debut for Chris Waller and it has been specked at odds after opening at $21. That's a good move, so it can't be overlooked.
    Consider
    10 Miss Winslet  
    F: 4   B(5)  W(56.0)
     ( J- Liam Riordan )
     ( T- L & T Corstens )

    Place
    F: 32232   B(5)  W(58.0)
     ( J- Jamie Mott )
     ( T- Annabel Neasham )
    It comes off five consecutive placings and it shouldn't be long before it breaks through. In good hands, so take the short odds.
    Main Danger
    7 Backlit Beauty  
    F: 26X46   B(7)  W(57.5)
     ( J- Teo Nugent )
     ( T- Kennewell & Yeomans )
    Better for two runs back from a spell and it doesn't need to improve much to win this race. Drawing wide might help it.
    Next Best
    1 Anthurium  
    Dividend : $6.70, $3.20
    Won
    F: 46   B(4)  W(59.5)
     ( J- Jackie Beriman )
     ( T- Michael Kent )
    Sixth at The Valley last time out but it should find this field much easier. Punters should expect a better effort.
    Consider

    Dividend : $2.60
    Place
    F: 0X53   B(3)  W(58.0)
     ( J- Jordan Childs )
     ( T- Busuttin/Young )
    Getting better with every run, including a third at Cranbourne last start. That should be a good form guide.
    Longer Odds
    4 Tahitian Warrior  
    F: 525X9   B(6)  W(59.5)
     ( J- Brian Higgins )
     ( T- Matthew Brown )
    Better than what it showed last time out, and it's worth backing again.

     ( J- Luke Cartwright )
     ( T- Stephen Brown )
    A winner at Mornington earlier this prep and a repeat of that would be good enough. Solid enough since and it gets 3kg off.
