Main Danger
6 Bright Star
F:B(6)W(57.0)
( J-Craig Williams )
( T-Grahame Begg )
The best-backed runner to win, and it has also looked good in preparation. The Begg stable gets them up and running early.
Next Best
9 Tag The Bride
Dividend : $2.40
Place
F:B(7)W(57.0)
( J-Luke Currie )
( T-John Sadler )
A jumpout winner at Pakenham, and that's often a good form guide for debut racing. Just needs some cover from a wide barrier.
Consider
8 Neotropical
F:B(2)W(57.0)
( J-Jamie Mott )
( T-John McArdle )
Bred to win early in its career, and it hasn't been missed in betting markets. Well worth including to boost payouts.
Longer Odds
3 Perfect Dismount
F:B(7)W(59.0)
( J-Robert Whearty )
( T-Ciaron Maher )
An interestingly-bred runner that could get off to a fast start. Race day betting moves would be telling, so include for value.

Top Pick
4 Black Peppermint
F: x6331B(9)W(57.5)
( J-Luke Nolen )
( T-Patrick & Michelle Payne )
Outstayed them last time out and a repeat could be on the cards. Shortening odds and that's not a big surprise.
Main Danger
1 Shockletz
Dividend : $4.70, $1.90
Won
F: 1x157B(4)W(60.5)
( J-Luke Cartwright )
( T-Ciaron Maher )
An impressive winner fresh up, and although beaten twice since, it hasn't been too far away from the prize. Weight comes off its back to help.
Next Best
10 Hot Too Go
F: 71403B(10)W(54.5)
( J-Craig Williams )
( T-Danny O'Brien )
It hasn't had the best of luck this prep, and it went too hard last time out. Better when ridden more conservatively, so expect a bounce back effort.
Consider
13 Leonchroi
Dividend : $1.80
Place
F: 47262B(2)W(54.0)
( J-Logan Bates )
( T-Mick Price & Michael Kent Jnr )
Nearing a win after multiple placings this prep. Gets in with only 52kg, which should be enough to take it close agaisnt an even field.
Longer Odds
6 Haaland
F: 21174B(1)W(57.0)
( J-Lucinda Boyd )
( T-Lucinda Boyd )
Good enough to post back-to-back wins earlier this campaign. Every chance to win off the inside draw.

Dividend : $2.50, $1.40
Won
F: 22x12B(11)W(54.0)
( J-Jett Stanley )
( T-Ciaron Maher )
Backed and beaten last time out, but it should be tough to beat here. An impressive maiden winner prior to that, and carrying 54kg is ideal.
Main Danger
8 I Only Wish
Dividend : $1.60
Place
F: 4x463B(2)W(55.0)
( J-Jye McNeil )
( T-Robbie Griffiths )
Not far away when third last time out, and it doesn't need to improve too much on that effort. Backed to beat the favourite.
Next Best
2 Astral Flame
F: x3182B(7)W(57.5)
( J-Lachlan Neindorf )
( T-Enver Jusufovic )
They often stay in form from this stable. A good winner three back, and it pushed them close last start. Another tidy win hope.
Consider
10 Draw Attention
F: 221x4B(3)W(54.0)
( J-Luke Nolen )
( T-Peter G Moody & Katherine Coleman )
It was shorter in the market earlier in the week, but we're happy with the current odds. Drawn to get every chance in the run.
Longer Odds
4 Savilla
F: 19144B(8)W(57.5)
( J-Ben Allen )
( T-Ben, Will & Jd Hayes )
Already a two-time winner this campaign, and it could stay them off. Worth including in picks at the odds.

Top Pick
7 Biancelli
Dividend : $1.40
Place
F: 1x1x2B(6)W(58.0)
( J-Logan Bates )
( T-Mick Price & Michael Kent Jnr )
Ended its unbeaten streak last time out, but it wasn't far away when second. Better for the run, and getting weight off its back is ideal.
Main Danger
6 Sweethearted
Dividend : $2.00
Place
F: 35x65B(1)W(59.0)
( J-Lachlan Neindorf )
( T-Phillip Stokes )
Overdue a winning performance, and it just needs some luck in running to let down in the straight. Nice enough odds from bookies.
Next Best
16 Celerity
F: 213x3B(3)W(53.0)
( J-Carleen Hefel )
( T-Ciaron Maher )
Getting down in the weights is a big help, and it hasn't been forgotten about in betting markets. Nothing wrong with its form coming into this race.
Consider
5 Manolo Bling
Dividend : $7.50, $2.10
Won
F: 389x8B(5)W(59.0)
( J-Rose Hammond )
( T-Anthony & Sam Freedman )
It has been given plenty of chances recently, but we're prepared to give it one more. A dangerous type at its best, so include for value.
Longer Odds
11 Just Like Gaby
F: 8x154B(11)W(57.0)
( J-John Allen )
( T-Ciaron Maher )
Sprinted best fresh up and it could settle off the pace and sprint over the top of them late.

Top Pick
Best "Each Way"
6 Hurry Curry
F: 50x36B(9)W(57.0)
( J-Craig Williams )
( T-Danny O'Brien )
It showed good ability as a 3YO, and we're hoping that form returns. Encouraging signs this prep, and it could score an overdue win.
Main Danger
11 Suntora
Dividend : $7.60, $2.80
Won
F: x7491B(3)W(55.0)
( J-Ryan Houston )
( T-Nick Ryan )
Turned its form around with a win, and that could see it kick on with it now. Dropping to 53kg gives it every chance.
Next Best
12 Junebug
F: 8x305B(11)W(54.0)
( J-Michael Dee )
( T-Annabel & Rob Archibald )
A handy enough effort for third fresh up, and it could improve on its recent efforts. It's the best-backed runner, so take notice of the betting move.
Consider
4 Cable Dancer
F: x7371B(6)W(58.5)
( J-Jamie Mott )
( T-Charlotte Littlefield )
Another runner that turned its form around with a win, and it can measure up to this level of racing. Worth including at the odds.
Longer Odds
2 Jenni's Meadow
F: 29x78B(12)W(61.0)
( J-Luke Cartwright )
( T-Mark Walker )
Fitter after two runs this campaign, and it's sneaking under the radar. Good enough to put this field away.

Place
F: 111x5B(10)W(54.0)
( J-Luke Currie )
( T-Ben, Will & Jd Hayes )
Ended its winning streak when running fifth fresh up, but it has enough upside to handle this field, especially at the weights.
Main Danger
2 Waimarie
F: x0451B(5)W(60.0)
( J-Ryan Houston )
( T-Annabel & Rob Archibald )
Showed its true potential last time out when winning. Gets some weight off its back after getting 60kg, and it should feature in the finish.
Next Best
8 Nation's Call
F: 66166B(1)W(57.0)
( J-Jye McNeil )
( T-Robbie Griffiths )
Not the easiest runner to follow at the best of times. Showed its best form three back, and we're hoping that Nation's Call turns up.
Consider
4 Electric Impulse
Dividend : $8.40, $2.60
Won
F: 13x06B(6)W(59.0)
( J-Ben Allen )
( T-Henry Dwyer )
It was always going to need a couple of runs back from a spell, and this race should be more to its liking. Strong bets have come for it.
Longer Odds
Best "Roughie"
10 Kengero
F: x2720B(2)W(56.0)
( J-Michael Dee )
( T-Charlotte Littlefield )
Gets a chance to turn around its moderate last-start effort. Happy to give it another chance.

Top Pick
16 Skippers Canyon
F: 12x14B(5)W(54.0)
( J-Lachlan Neindorf )
( T-Phillip Stokes )
It got way too far back in the run last start, but it made good ground to run fourth. It was an impressive effort considering the circumstances.
Main Danger
3 Etna Rosso
Dividend : $2.80
Place
F: 30223B(16)W(59.5)
( J-Craig Williams )
( T-Chris Waller )
Always threatening to win but it keeps finding a few better. However, it could score an overdue win here, and punters get fair odds.
Next Best
11 Black Run
F: x2111B(7)W(54.0)
( J-Ryan Houston )
( T-Annabel & Rob Archibald )
Loved the way it fought back to win three on the bounce last start. That was a tough effort, and it could emerge as a promising stayer.
Consider
15 Ziryab
F: x5962B(4)W(54.0)
( J-Michael Dee )
( T-Ciaron Maher )
Ran its best race in some time last start, which should be a good form guide. 54kg on its back is ideal, and it doesn't need to improve too much to win.
Longer Odds
13 Taramansour
Dividend : $27.90, $6.90
Won
F: 53808B(10)W(54.0)
( J-Luke Currie )
( T-Phillip Stokes )
Prepared to give it another chance. Battles away, but it's good enough to win races at this time of the year.
