Won
F: 9X422B(5)W(60.0)
( J-Damian Lane )
( T-Phillip Stokes )
Overdue a win after consecutive placings against much stronger fields. Money has come, which isn't surprising.
Main Danger
2 Walter Spur
F: 9X133B(3)W(60.0)
( J-Blake Shinn )
( T-Gavin Bedggood )
Running well with two wins and four placings from eight starts. Good enough to improve and win this race.

3 Rotokura
Dividend : $1.70
Place
F: 4X248B(2)W(58.5)
( J-Blake Shinn )
( T-Griffiths/de Kock )
It owns a slick turn-of-foot when it's running at its best. Just needs the right run in transit to finish off best.
Consider
6 Per Ivy
F: 56244B(4)W(55.0)
( J-Carleen Hefel )
( T-Colin Scott )
Experienced and good enough to score a minor upset with 55kg on its back.
Longer Odds
5 Wind Dreamer
F: 3886XB(1)W(56.0)
( J-Joe Bowditch )
( T-John Keane )
Fresh up form reads well with a win and three placings. Inside draw adds to its appeal.

Top Pick
8 Atteindre
F: 54X22B(1)W(57.5)
( J-Luke Cartwright )
( T-Enver Jusufovic )
Nothing wrong with its form after posting consecutive second placings. Draws the rails with 3kg coming off.
Main Danger
3 Itsukushima
F: 254X2B(5)W(59.5)
( J-Jamie Mott )
( T-B, W & JD Hayes )
Always around the mark and that was a tidy second placing last time out. Most of the money has come for it.

Dividend : $2.40, $1.10
Won
F:B(6)W(58.0)
( J-Damian Lane )
( T-Moody/Coleman )
Bred to enjoy this distance and it could make a winning debut. Rock-solid in betting markets, which is a good sign.
Consider

Dividend : $3.30
Place
F: 4705B(8)W(58.0)
( J-Matthew Cartwright )
( T-Wendy Kelly )
Better than what it has been showing recently and its fifth at Cranbourne was a tidy effort. Shouldn't be far away.
Longer Odds
2 Irish Storm
F:B(4)W(59.5)
( J-Fred Kersley )
( T-Danny O'Brien )
Solid jumpout form and the son of Frankel should run well.

Top Pick
Best "Each Way"
2 Gymkhana
F: 4X46B(5)W(59.5)
( J-Damian Lane )
( T-Angus Townley )
Not far away in all three runs to date. Looks set to win shortly and punters have climbed into the each-way odds.
Main Danger
7 Hot Gospel
F: 4XB(6)W(57.5)
( J-Billy Egan )
( T-Patrick Payne )
Fourth on debut before spelling immediately. Trial form has been solid and it should be right in the mix.
Next Best
5 Pride Of Pariah
Dividend : $1.60
Place
F: 3B(1)W(59.5)
( J-Arron Lynch )
( T-Patrick Keane )
Only a short margin behind the winner on debut in heavy conditions. Inside draw is ideal, and it could go close.
Consider
8 Jennio's Filly
F:B(8)W(57.5)
( J-Declan Bates )
( T-B, W & JD Hayes )
Drifting with bookmakers but the Jenni runners have an excellent debut record. We're not leaving it out.
Longer Odds
9 Miss Lum
F: 5X0B(9)W(57.5)
( J-Jamie Mott )
( T-Bill Papazaharoudakis )
Didn't fire last time out but there has been good specking. Chance at the big odds.

Top Pick
7 Sassy Boom
F: 10X4XB(2)W(58.0)
( J-Liam Riordan )
( T-Danny O'Brien )
A slick sprinter on its day and it could hit the ground running. Drawn well and money has come for him throughout the week.
Main Danger
5 Fast Star
Dividend : $5.70, $2.80
Won
F: X450XB(4)W(58.5)
( J-Blake Shinn )
( T-L & T Corstens )
Won well on debut and it comes off a trial win at Tatura. Could have turned the corner and it could be right in the mix.
Next Best
3 Cadenabbia
F: 0X147B(7)W(59.0)
( J-Declan Bates )
( T-Nigel Blackiston )
Won well at Bendigo fresh up and it showed a nice turn-of-foot to pick them up. Drawn wide but it should go close.
Consider
1 Entremet
Dividend : $2.80
Place
F: 70X35B(6)W(59.5)
( J-Jye McNeil )
( T-Griffiths/de Kock )
A two-time winner that has form in soft conditions. Fifth at Flemington last time out, and it can carry the weight.
Longer Odds
2 Ideel Girl
F: 99X51B(3)W(59.5)
( J-Jarrod Fry )
( T-Brady Cross )
Won at Stawell last time out and it's a five-time winner overall. Chance based on that.

1 Brier
F: 2X2B(5)W(59.5)
( J-Carleen Hefel )
( T-Enver Jusufovic )
Well-backed throughout the week after posting two second placings from two starts. Won't take long to win.
Main Danger
6 Subsix
Dividend : $3.20, $1.30
Won
F: 5X45XB(11)W(58.0)
( J-Blake Shinn )
( T-Kennewell & Yeomans )
The early favourite before drifting a touch. Just needs luck from a wide draw to figure in the finish.
Next Best
5 Rubology
F: 2B(9)W(58.0)
( J-Jye McNeil )
( T-Peter Gelagotis )
Second on debut without getting much luck in the run. Another runner specked at each-way odds.
Consider
7 Delicate Babe
F: 2X22XB(1)W(57.5)
( J-Celine Gaudray )
( T-John Leek (Jnr) )
Three starts for three second placings and getting the inside draw could be enough to see it score a win.
Longer Odds
3 Attain
Dividend : $7.20
Place
F: 6B(2)W(58.0)
( J-Arron Lynch )
( T-Robbie Laing )
Fair enough on debut when sixth. Should improve nicely from that run.
