R1 n7 FRETTA 2nd up off 20 days. 4yo mare by Frankel who has won maiden and BM64 at her first two starts on Good tracks and is in the right stable with a strong SP profile. Out to 1700m today (+100m) is a logical progression class and distance wise and she will be posive early on the map and get into a good spot behind the lead group. Had bone chips removed from both knees aer huge maiden win and resumed off 361 days when again dominant late winning at Sandown off a Slow tempo. Looks progressive- not many of her rivals are and clear top pick.
R6 n9 REY MAGNERIO 7th up off a 56 day freshen up and jump outs have been very good. Very talented emerging sprinter who is well placed in BM84 class with 56.5kg. Blinkers went on start of this prep and his form has just kept getting better. Won 4 of last 6 starts all on different tracks and excuses in both losses. 1100m today is ideal with pressure on up front and a good map behind that speed- he has been huge late in his races off all tempos. Good horse.
R9 n2 VA VIA 2nd up off 14 days and maps well behind the speed this tempo and will get chance late. Got well back resuming 4th to Noble Soldier 1100m Randwick Slow 5 beaten 2.8L. It was a very slow tempo early for an 1100m race so had genuine excuses and charged late there. Has got some big numbers from last prep in fast run 1100-1200m races and D Lane a key change. Has huge closing figures and well suited today.
R10 n4 YELLOW SAM 2nd up off 14 days and maps very well forward inside right behind the speed. Resumed at Moonee Valley for 3rd to Holly Lolly 1200m at $3.80 off a very slow tempo when held up. It was a so resuming run and she will improve a lot off that for today. Best figures last prep win this race clearly- she ran into very slow run races all prep but had huge closing figures in BM84 class- lot stronger than today. She looks better than these.

R4 n1 TERRA MATER 3rd up off 28 days and overcame difficulties to win here last start at 1200m BM72 at $2.05. Rolls forward early on map and should get nice run behind the leader on this tempo. Closing figures were high class last start despite the traffic problems. Won both starts this prep but sll have plenty of improvement le in here. Nice mare.
R5 n5 RUNNING BY 3rd up off 21 days and won well last start despite narrow margin at Caulfield 1400m BM78 at $1.70. Went out very fast there early, almost 10L faster than previous start and that took her out of her comfort zone as she was 2nd up – was very brave to actually win that race. Off 21 days here and out to 1500m is perfect on a lot more sedate tempo. All her figures are very good and looks winner this class.
R7 n9 COOL JAKEY 3rd up – blinkers on last start when ridden to lead and won easily BM72 60kg. Not much luck resuming for Joe Pride prior (ex M Newnham). Gets weight drop to 53kg(-7kg) but does jump sharply in class to BM88. Lightly raced 6 starts and every one of them he has recorded good figures- talented horse capable of handling the class rise here. Emerging young horse suited out to 1400m with light weight and great map.
R10 n13 SPRING LEE 3rd up 11 days and back to 1100m (-100m) from last start 2nd to Chilli Filly BM64 at $2.50 beaten 0.6L. Raced keenly 2nd up there early and mid-stages 2nd up and beter suited back to 1100m race with tempo. Was VG winning resuming at Kembla off a FAST Tempo at 1000m when smashed in beng $1.70. Her closing figures there off that tempo was a sign of her quality. Her maiden win last prep before a spell at Gosford was best figures for the meeng and she had horses like Bojangles well behind her there. Convinced she is up to this race and maps well behind the speed.

R3 n1 ARABIAN SUMMER 4th race start off 28 days and leads on map of the raced horses. Could take a sit right on Moulin Miss Back if she wants to lead that badly. Had excuses at Flemington in high rang 2yo race during Cup carnival when 3rd beaten 2L by Karavas. Then went to Ballarat on a So 5 track and led and destroyed a field by 3.5L with Parkour in second. She led there on a very slow tempo so today is going to be a lot different for her that way out to 1100m but her closing figures were high class. Looks winner today.
R6 n2 DIMITROV 2nd up off 17 days and out to 1400 suits off VG resuming run gelded on Heavy 9 track at Warwick Farm at $3. Had the XONB off there and was awkward away and lost ground and never really comfortable on the Heavy track. All his figures are VG and is a lot beter than maiden class. Map is his only concern today but has C Williams and tempo up front so he can sort that out for us.
