Had its chance last time out but that came against a tough field. Should find this more to its liking, and the small field helps.
Main Danger
2 Ground Control
Dividend : $1.50, $1.10
Won
F: 1x3B(3)W(59.5)
( J-Lachlan Neindorf )
( T-Phillip Stokes )
The short favourite to win after scoring a win and a placing. Drawn to get a good run throughout, but it's paying skinny odds to win.
Next Best
4 Must Be Sain
F: 16xB(2)W(59.0)
( J-Jamie Mott )
( T-Shane Nichols & Hayden Black )
A good debut winner before only finishing sixth last start. Spelled following that effort, and it could bounce back in fine style.
Consider
3 Astari
Dividend : $2.20
Place
F: 8x1B(5)W(59.0)
( J-Luke Currie )
( T-Mark Walker )
A Te Akau runner that turned its form around nicely with a win. No reason why it can't go back-to-back with natural improvement.
Longer Odds
1 Tempt The Gods
Dividend :
Place
F: 311x0B(4)W(60.5)
( J-Rhys McLeod )
( T-Patrick Kearney )
Disappointing fresh up but it has room for improvement. Showed winning form last prep.

Top Pick
Best "Each Way"
3 Louis Barthas
F: 55x3xB(11)W(59.5)
( J-Declan Bates )
( T-Nick Ryan )
A former European who ran third in its Australia debut at Sale. Shouldn't be worried by the conditions, so include in picks.
Main Danger
1 Aliano
Dividend : $1.60
Place
F: 4xB(3)W(59.5)
( J-Luke Nolen )
( T-Robbie Griffiths )
It ran well for fourth on debut before spelling, and it has been well-backed to score. That's a good sign for a runner from this stable.
Next Best
7 Maynard
F:B(7)W(58.0)
( J-Luke Currie )
( T-John Sadler )
On debut and it has shown good speed at the jumpouts. It will need a touch of luck from a wide barrier, but it has enough upside to go close.
Consider
8 Brazen Diva
F: 337x2B(9)W(57.5)
( J-Logan Bates )
( T-Greg Eurell )
It has threatened to win on many occasions, but it keeps producing solid efforts. Second last time out, and it can't be ruled out to go one better.
Longer Odds
4 Firerated
F:B(1)W(58.0)
( J-Ben Allen )
( T-Alexander Rae )
Second in a recent trial and it gets the inside draw to its advantage. Should be right around the mark.

Top Pick
6 Black Eyed Blonde
F: x2632B(2)W(57.5)
( J-Ben Allen )
( T-Wendy Kelly )
Knocking on the door of a win after three placings from four starts this prep. Keeps looming to win, and it should go close again.
Main Danger
5 Rainy Night
F: 4x7B(1)W(58.0)
( J-Daniel Stackhouse )
( T-Anthony & Sam Freedman )
Its two starts have been only fair, but it's hard to ignore the money coming for it. In good hands, and getting the inside draw could switch it on.
Next Best
3 Corviglia
Dividend : $1.30
Place
F:B(4)W(58.0)
( J-Jake Noonan )
( T-Alexander Rae )
Bred for speed, and it has been given four trials leading into this. Should be fit and ready to fire, hence the shortening odds after opening at double figures.
Consider
7 Honey Maker
Dividend : $8.30, $1.60
Won
F: 7x533B(6)W(57.5)
( J-Luke Currie )
( T-Shawn Mathrick )
Looking to cap off consecutive placings with a win, and it could cause a minor upset. Experienced rider goes on, which is a bonus.
Longer Odds
2 Serene Defense
Dividend : $2.60
Place
F: 2x4B(5)W(59.5)
( J-Bailey Kinninmont )
( T-Brett Conlon )
Solid efforts to date and getting 3kg off its back only helps. Could boost payouts handsomely.

The 'Day's Best'
3 Icaro
Dividend : $1.70
Place
F: 472B(6)W(59.5)
( J-Ben Allen )
( T-Michael Kent )
Loved the way it hit the line last time out, which it has done in all three starts. Doesn't mind the conditions, and it should be winning this race.
Main Danger
4 Left Hook
Dividend : $8.70, $2.30
Won
F: 8x862B(8)W(59.5)
( J-Beau Mertens )
( T-Mick Price & Michael Kent Jnr )
Almost landed the knockout blow last time out, and it could go one better. The big danger to the favourite, and an obvious quinella chance.
Next Best
8 Dela Bella
F: x5452B(4)W(57.5)
( J-Daniel Stackhouse )
( T-Tetyana Furdetska )
Another runner coming off a good second placing. Nearing an overdue win, and punters get each-way odds this time around.
Consider
7 Valle Di Luce
F: 8x5B(2)W(58.0)
( J-Jordan Childs )
( T-Trent Busuttin & Natalie Young )
Encouraging signs when running fifth fresh up, and it doesn't need to improve too much to handle many of these. Right in the mix here.
Longer Odds
2 Good Lordy Me
Dividend : $2.60
Place
F: 8x452B(9)W(59.5)
( J-Jason Maskiell )
( T-Jack Laing )
More depth to this field but it comes off a tidy second placing. Good enough to cause an upset.

Top Pick
8 Sinister Sauce
F: 535x1B(7)W(56.5)
( J-Ryan Houston )
( T-Simon Zahra )
Too good for them last time out, and a repeat of that could be on the cards. Gets weight off its back and it's paying better odds than expected.
Main Danger
1 Thinking Gold
F: 1004xB(5)W(59.5)
( J-Luke Nolen )
( T-Peter G Moody & Katherine Coleman )
It didn't fire in consecutive runs last prep, but that followed a maiden win. It has been good otherwise, and the money has come for it here.
Next Best
2 Eye For An Eye
Dividend : $3.30, $2.00
Won
F: 3343xB(3)W(59.0)
( J-Lachlan Neindorf )
( T-John Leek Jr )
Three placings from its last four starts, and there's nothing wrong with that form. Good enough to figure in an even betting field.
Consider
5 Subtle Power
Dividend : $2.00
Place
F: 54x83B(2)W(58.0)
( J-Luke Currie )
( T-Ben, Will & Jd Hayes )
Better for two runs back from a spell, including a third placing. Looks set to build on that effort and punters get each-way odds.
Longer Odds
4 Gamegirl
F: x0x50B(6)W(58.0)
( J-Lauren Burke )
( T-Rick Harrison )
There is room for an upset and the odds are massive. Should get through conditions well enough.

Dividend : $1.90
Place
F: 17x57B(6)W(58.5)
( J-Luke Currie )
( T-Ken & Kasey Keys )
Better for recent racing and it should be ready to show its best now. Specked at each-way odds, and it could cause a slight upset.
Main Danger
10 Jenni Intiba
F: x7353B(10)W(57.5)
( J-Declan Bates )
( T-Shane Jackson )
Two placings from its last three starts, and it's never too far away from the prize. Could continue the winning run of the Jennis.
Next Best
11 Divine Clementine
F: 35341B(3)W(57.0)
( J-Jordan Childs )
( T-Mitchell Freedman )
Capped off solid form with a last-start win. That could be the catalyst to kick on with it now, and punters get nice odds.
Consider
2 Rebadge
F: 480x5B(9)W(60.0)
( J-Ben Allen )
( T-Dominic Sutton )
It was always going to need the run last time out, and it wasn't far away when fifth. Just needs to carry the big weight to win.
Longer Odds
7 Legacy Rose
F: x7396B(13)W(58.5)
( J-Rhys McLeod )
( T-Patrick Kearney )
Better than what it has shown this preparation, and we're happy to give it another chance.

Won
F: 17x7B(2)W(60.0)
( J-Luke Currie )
( T-Ben, Will & Jd Hayes )
A winner on debut before meeting a couple of harder fields. Should be better suited to this level of racing, and the money is starting to come.
Main Danger
3 Electric Star
F: 1x4B(3)W(60.5)
( J-Luke Cartwright )
( T-Clinton McDonald )
A handy debut winner before resuming with a fourth. It was strong to the line, and it has been backed accordingly here.
Next Best
2 Marble Point
Dividend : $2.00
Place
F: 159xB(6)W(61.0)
( J-Nadia Daniels )
( T-Robbie Griffiths )
Another runner that scored on debut before rising in class and struggling. This race is up its alley, and it could be well-backed close to start time.
Consider
10 Gibraltar Tycoon
F: x066xB(9)W(59.0)
( J-Patrick Moloney )
( T-Robbie Griffiths )
Better than what it showed last prep, and it has looked better in recent work. Should be good enough to figure in the finish.
Longer Odds
Best "Roughie"
9 Carolina Breeze
F: 13x67B(1)W(59.0)
( J-Ben Allen )
( T-Dominic Sutton )
Fitter after two runs this prep and it could be the forgotten runner. Should be right in the mix.

Dividend : $1.70
Place
F: 233x6B(6)W(59.5)
( J-Caitlin Hollowood )
( T-Denis Pagan )
Only fair fresh up but it's never too far away from the prize, and it's one of the more consistent runners going around.
Next Best

Dividend : $4.60, $1.60
Won
F: 71xB(8)W(60.5)
( J-Beau Mertens )

Consider
4 Savamoon
F: 6721xB(16)W(60.0)
( J-Emily Pozman )
( T-Peter G Moody & Katherine Coleman )
Another runner that ended last prep with a win. Drawn wide for its return, but getting 2kg off its back is a bonus. Never far off a win.
Longer Odds
6 Fauci
F: 1748xB(1)W(59.5)
( J-Jake Noonan )
( T-Trent Busuttin & Natalie Young )
Fresh up and it should get all favours off the inside draw. Could sneak under the radar and run well.
