1 Fear No Evil
F: 14x16B(5)W(59.0)
( J-Adam Hyeronimus )
( T-Gai Waterhouse & Adrian Bott )

4 Hyperbolic
Dividend : $2.80, $1.40
Won
F: 13x81B(4)W(56.5)
( J-Tommy Berry )
( T-Brad Widdup )
Went through its gears to win impressively last start. No surprises to see money come for it, and it could mature into a nice type.
Next Best
9 Waku Waku
F: x2311B(8)W(54.0)
( J-Tom Sherry )
( T-Annabel & Rob Archibald )
Gunning for three consecutive wins, and there is every chance of it winning. Getting down in the weights at 54kg could be enough to take it close.
Consider
3 Editing
F: 5x572B(3)W(56.5)
( J-Ashley Morgan )
( T-Ciaron Maher )
A touch flat-footed at its first two runs this prep. Much better last start, and it looks set for another tidy effort.
Longer Odds

Dividend : $3.40
Place
F: x10x7B(2)W(57.5)
( J-Rachel King )
( T-Gai Waterhouse & Adrian Bott )

The 'Day's Best'
17 Lady Olenna
F: 110x2B(1)W(55.5)
( J-Kerrin McEvoy )
( T-Paul Messara & Leah Gavranich )
Getting the inside draw could be the winning of the race. Comes off a second placing, which was an excellent effort in defeat.
Main Danger
2 Action King
F: 6x552B(5)W(59.0)
( J-Zac Lloyd )
( T-Rob Potter )
Another runner coming off a second placing, and it's a nice strong type. Good enough to beat this field and pay handsome odds.
Next Best
15 Madrina
F: 42128B(2)W(55.5)
( J-Tommy Berry )
( T-Nick Olive )
Not everything fell into place last time out, but it could bounce back in fine style. A big chance based on its best form.
Consider
8 First Landing
F: 1227xB(11)W(57.5)
( J-Tyler Schiller )
( T-John A Sprague )
It should have strengthened up from its last preparation, and it could hit the ground running this time in. Just needs to slot in.
Longer Odds
1 Massira
Dividend : $13.10, $3.40
Won
F: 165x8B(15)W(59.0)
( J-Adam Hyeronimus )

Looked as though it needed the fresh up run. Better for it, and it could sneak under the radar.

Race 3 - Oran Park Midway Handicap (Bm72)
Time: 3:40 PM | Distance: 1200 m | Prize $ 136800
Top Pick
2 Alabama State
F: 0x284B(1)W(59.5)
( J-Siena Grima )
( T-Jack Pilkington )
Not too far away in three starts this prep, and it hasn't had the right run to suit. It should get that here, so this is its best chance.
Main Danger
13 Oui Oui Oui
Dividend : $4.50, $2.20
Won
F: 157x1B(13)W(55.5)
( J-Tom Sherry )
( T-Jason Attard )
It was a case of yes yes yes last time out when winning. Might not be as easy from a wide draw, but the money has come, which is a good sign.
Next Best
16 Octa De Lago
F: 744x2B(15)W(54.0)
( J-Tim Clark )
( T-Richard Litt )
Resumed with a second placing at Hawkesbury. No reason why that form won't be good enough to cope with this field.
Consider
21 Mailata
F: 2x414B(2)W(60.0)
( J-Jason Collett )
( T-Bryce Heys )
A nice winning chance if it gets a run in the field off the ballot. Money has come for it, and that's a good sign from the Heys stable.
Longer Odds
8 Motoscafo
F: 1x209B(3)W(56.5)
( J-Zac Lloyd )
( T-John P Thompson )
Much better than what its last two starts suggest. Could measure up to this field without much trouble.

Time: 4:15 PM | Distance: 1200 m | Prize $ 182400
Top Pick
10 Miss Kim Kar
F: 3146xB(6)W(56.5)
( J-Rachel King )
( T-Bjorn Baker )
It has looked good in preparation for this run following a spell. Should map well for it, and the odds are generous.
Main Danger
4 Snack Bar
Dividend : $1.30
Place
F: 423x2B(10)W(58.0)
( J-Tommy Berry )
( T-Bjorn Baker )
It will need luck after drawing wide, but it owns a nice turn-of-foot. Looking to cap off three consecutive placings, so include in picks.
Next Best
2 Axius
Dividend : $3.40, $1.60
Won
F: x141xB(3)W(58.5)
( J-Nash Rawiller )
( T-Ciaron Maher )
It scored two wins from three starts last campaign, so there is nothing wrong with that form. Ideally drawn, so don't leave it out.
Consider
11 Smashing Time
F: 60x13B(7)W(56.0)
( J-Brock Ryan )
( T-Robert & Luke Price )
It should appreciate the drop in weight, and its form could continue to improve. A nice winner fresh, so include based on that.
Longer Odds
Best "Roughie"
1 Bundeena
F: 35x45B(4)W(59.0)
( J-Sam Clipperton )
( T-John P Thompson )
Carries a big weight but it comes off two solid efforts, and it should be slightly shorter in betting markets.

Race 5 - Inglis Nursery (L)
Time: 4:56 PM | Distance: 1000 m | Prize $ 456000
Top Pick
1 Bohemian Rhapsody
F: 3B(1)W(56.0)
( J-Tim Clark )
( T-Tony & Calvin McEvoy )
It was well in the market when running third on debut in Melbourne. Having race day experience is ideal, hence the betting move.
Main Danger
2 Elio
F: 4B(5)W(56.0)
( J-Adam Hyeronimus )
( T-Gai Waterhouse & Adrian Bott )
It's another runner with race day form on the board. Fourth on debut in a strong race, and it could head forward and be tough to roll.
Next Best
5 Vatican
F:B(6)W(56.0)
( J-Tommy Berry )
( T-Chris Waller )
Expensive purchases don't always live up to their billing, but it could hit the ground running. Not asked for much at the trials, which is Waller's way.
Consider
3 Internal Affairs
Dividend : $1.50
Place
F: 4B(3)W(56.0)
( J-Tom Sherry )
( T-Brad Widdup )
Fourth on debut at Rosehill in what should be a good form guide. It will only improve with that run under its belt, so it goes in the mix.
Longer Odds
8 Billecart Blue
F:B(9)W(54.0)
( J-Kerrin McEvoy )
( T-Chris Waller )
Another Waller-trained runner that has plenty of upside. The second stringer often runs well.

Top Pick
Best "Each Way"
8 Mr Buster
F: x2111B(8)W(56.5)
( J-Tommy Berry )
( T-Ciaron Maher )
Maher took it to Queensland to get its confidence up and it worked with three straight wins. Good enough to beat this field.
Main Danger
9 Rotagilla
F: x4121B(6)W(56.5)
( J-Tim Clark )
( T-Chris Waller )
Loved the way it fought hard to win last time out. Gets a good run from the draw here, and having Clark riding helps.
Next Best
1 Collect Your Cash
F: 219x1B(5)W(60.5)
( J-Adam Hyeronimus )
( T-Gai Waterhouse & Adrian Bott )
Nothing wrong with its fresh up win, and it could sneak under the radar at each-way odds. Just needs to carry the big weight to win.
Consider
4 Sun God
Dividend : $1.50
Place
F: 0x151B(7)W(58.0)
( J-Zac Lloyd )
( T-Chris Waller )
Already a two-time winner this preparation, and it has been well-backed from the Waller stable. That's a good sign.
Longer Odds
5 Private Legacy
F: 0x094B(1)W(57.5)
( J-Jason Collett )
( T-Gregory Hickman )
Waiting for its best form to return. Encouraging signs last time out.

Race 7 - Mending Broken Hearts Christmas Cup (L)
Time: 6:05 PM | Distance: 2400 m | Prize $ 228000
Top Pick
10 Hollywood Hero
F: x6233B(5)W(53.0)
( J-Ashley Morgan )
( T-Bjorn Baker )
It runs its best races when it settles close to the rail and comes along the inside. Gets a chance to do that, and it could cap off consistent form.
Main Danger
1 Asterix
Dividend : $2.40
Place
F: 00051B(10)W(59.5)
( J-Jason Collett )
( T-Chris Waller )
It was good to see the former Kiwi get back to winning form after some time. Backed to win here, and it could be stable money.
Next Best
9 Age Of Sail
F: 37104B(4)W(53.0)
( J-Alysha Collett )
( T-Kris Lees )
Not always the most consistent, but that's the nature of the staying ranks. It likes to settle handy to the pace and give a good kick.
Consider
3 Future History
Dividend : $5.50, $2.20
Won
F: 03436B(1)W(57.5)
( J-Adam Hyeronimus )
( T-Ciaron Maher )
Running out of chances, but we're happy to give it one more. Draws the inside, so it won't have to do any work in the run.
Longer Odds
4 Palmetto
Dividend : $3.10
Place
F: 70658B(8)W(57.0)
( J-Sam Clipperton )
( T-John Sargent )
A nice enough type on its day and it has been specked at double-figure odds.
