Race 3
LIBRATE has consistent form and won over the mile last time out. Despite having a wide draw to deal with, she looks to be the one to side with here. THEE ONE followed up her narrow defeat in her penultimate start over this distance with an easy 3.5L victory next time out to win her maiden race. She could be the biggest threat to the former. NOVEMBER DREAMING is the stable companion of the latter and is a solid back-up for the yard after winning her penultimate outing over this trip. FLORENT was also a winner of her penultimate start over a mile and then put in a solid next effort over seven furlongs. She should not be overlooked today.
Race 4
ORLEANS ROCK has consistent formlines to his credit and finished well to win his last start over a mile. From draw 3, he should be right up there when they hit the line. DUKE OF PLUMPTON followed up his win over seven furlongs with a second-place finish next time out over a mile. He is drawn eleven out of sixteen runners, but he should nevertheless be involved in the finish here. SIKORSKY is drawn one inside the latter and was making good late progress when second over seven furlongs, just 0.8L behind the winner last time out. The extra distance should be to his liking. DIPLOMATIC MEASURE steps up to the mile, but was staying on last time out over 1300M and should be right at home over the extra distance.
Race 5
PREZADO showed good improvement to win his last outing over this c&d and will jump from a mid-field draw. He will be hoping to complete his double here and looks to be the value in the race. EDUARDO was a tad disappointing last time out over 1100M and drops back to five furlongs, which will be to his liking. He will also get 3kgs taken off his back thanks to his claiming apprentice. CAUSEWAY GIRL is a 4yr old filly taking on the boys. She returns from an 11-week break and has not had a barrier trial. If not too much in need of the run, she should be respected here. MALIBU STYLE is drawn out at gate ten, but he should be running down the pack in the latter stages of the race.
Race 6
KING OF LEOGRANCE has his hat-trick attempt after winning his latest outing over sixteen furlongs. The drop in distance should not be an issue. TOO CLOSE THE SUN on the other hand, completed his hat-trick last time out when winning over 2300M. He looks the immediate danger to the former. OCEANEX is a 4yr old mare taking on some hard-knocking males, but she did win her last start over 2500M and should give the boys a good run for their money. RUNAWAY narrowly missed out on his trio of wins when beaten a head over sixteen furlongs last time out. He will be looking to bounce back to winning ways today.
Race 7
RUPTURE pulled off his hat-trick by winning over three different distances, which is to his credit. He has a big chance of completing his quartet of victories here. SCHABAU returns from a 63-week break and has not had the benefit of a barrier trial, but he has won all three of his starts in Australia and should be viewed as a serious danger to the top choice. CARZOFF showed marked improvement when going 2100M last time out and will have his cause assisted by having 3kgs removed from his allocated weight, courtesy of his claiming apprentice. SUPER TITUS steps up from 1700M of his last outing but was staying on well that day and he may well be looking for this greater test of stamina.
Race 8
ACHERNAR STAR has shown gradual improvement in his last two outings and did finish second in his last start over seven furlongs, just under a length behind the winner. He will also have 3kgs taken off his back for the services of his claiming apprentice. SIRIUS SUSPECT only needs to repeat his penultimate start over the c&d to be a major player in this contest. His draw four won’t harm his case. A SHIN ROOK was a winner of his last start despite being friendless in the betting markets. He is drawn very wide out at eighteen, but he should be dropped out of it in the early stages of the race and then come with a rattle in the closing stages of the race. ICONOCLASM drops in trip after two encouraging efforts over the mile. He likes to race up with the pace, so the drop in distance is sure to be to his liking.
Race 9
FINAL MAN completed his hat-trick last time out, all of which have come over six furlongs. He steps up to seven furlongs today, but he skipped clear of the opposition to win his last start and the extra ground should suit. BROADWAYANDFOURTH is a 3yr old filly taking on boys, but she is seldom too far off the action and stayed on well in her last outing over six furlongs. On that effort, she should be right at home over this trip. ORIENZEL won last time out over this distance and from gate five, he should be involved in the finish once again. BEEHUNTER has consistent form and was just beaten a head in his last outing over this trip. He should be included in all bets.
