BEST BETS
R3 n3 POIFECT Leads and controls early on map with Sassy Boom off soft draw. Resumes off 119-day spell and was excellent in recent jump out win. Previous form has been excellent for a BM84 class race today. She has a very favorable on-speed racing pattern and can sit up front on fast tempos and put fields away late- horses like her are great betting propositions. Resuming at 1400m is a sign of intent from astute stable and she should control this race from the start.
R10 n6 A LITTLE DEEP Maps forward early from soft draw to be behind the leaders and suited there off this tempo. 3ª up off 14 days rises 3kg and stays at 1200m. Last start here drew outside went back to last in small field off an even tempo and unleashed out wide late to win brilliantly beating Arkansaw Kid (won Group 2 sprint since) by 1L. The overall figures from the race were genuinely high quality with a powerful L600m and the 6th fastest L200m of meeting. Unbeaten this prep (2.2) since a spell and both wins have been excellent. Clear top pick in this race off this map.

R5 n4 VAST ART 3rd up off 14 days rises 4kg (Listed back to BM84) and well suited out to 1600m. Last start drew outside, was slow away and went back near last on a very slow tempo but closed off powerfully to run 4th beaten 0.5L in Listed Class race when heavily backed late. He had meeting dominant L400m figures with the fastest L200m of the day. Lot better horse back on dryer track and is very well placed back in this class today at 1600m. Looks the winner.

BEST BETS
R1 n11 EL CASTELLO Forward early on map to be 4th in 1/1 and gets map favours there. 2d up off 17 days drops 7kg out to 1600m (+200m). Resumed off 137-day spell in strong Warwick Farm maiden, sat 4th on a fast tempo and won narrowly beating a decent horse. Figures from the race were very good and his closing figures there off a fast tempo were genuine quality. 2nd up last prep he ran 2d to Broadsiding and although a 3YO taking on the older horses today, he looks clear top pick off this map in a Midway.
R3 n6 BEAR ON THE LOOSE Leads and controls early on map on a slow tempo-well suited there. Resumes off short 70-day spell and two recent trials when was strong late as you would expect. Last prep looked very talented in both runs racing forward on fast tempos and recording quality figures. Resuming off a short break and getting map control up front with Nash on a slow tempo looks the perfect set up. Clear top pick.
R7 n6 AUTUMN GLOW Maps back near last off a slow tempo- tricky map again but smaller field helps. 3rd race start first prep off 21 days rises 3kg out to 1400m (+100m). Last start Rosehill drew outside went back to 6th on an even tempo but crushed them late winning by 2L. Her closing figures there were strong and will eat up the 1400m today. Looks high class and margins from both wins have been impressive.
R8 n6 FANGIRL Maps last off a slow tempo from outside draw-tough map again but smaller field helps. 2nd up off 28 days and ran 5th recent trail here Sept 9th. Resumed off 175-day spell and drew outside went back to last on a very slow tempo (completely unsuited) ran 3rd beaten 0.5L. She had zero chance of winning g that race off that set up and her closing figures were elite. High class mare a lot better suited off this tempo at 1600m this track and should overpower these late and be winning.
R9 n6 I AM ME Positive early on map to 3rd inside on leaders back and suited there. 2nd up off 14 days drops 2kg out to 1100m (+100m). Resumed off 119-day spell drew soft sat 4th on an even tempo and was too strong late beating Bella Nipotina by 0.2L when heavily backed late. Overall figures were dominant for the meeting and the closing figures were electric.

R5 n10 CATWALK CRMINAL Forward inside to lead or be on speed from draw on fast tempo. 3ª up off 14 days drops 6kg out to 1200m (+90m). Last start Doomben G4 drew wider went forward to lead with 58kg on an even tempo before running 2’* beaten 0.7L. Overall figures were solid from race, and she had a strong L200m considering she led them up. Ready to peak today 3rd up, finally draws a good barrier and gets to lead with 52kg back on her home track. She has a lot in her favour today.
