DAILEY FAMILY FUNERALS MAIDEN PLATE 1250m
Only a small field but there should be a solid tempo with a few first starters engaged. FLYING ARGYLE (4) best of the raced brigade and comes here in peak condition fourth-up. Ready for this trip now after closing off with the 58.5kg when fourth over 900m at this track. Can sit just off the speed and produce late. ROSE OF DUBAI (9) Pride Of Dubai filly out of Bella Pronto on debut for the Minervini stable. Has impressed in three trials and finds a soft maiden to kick off from the low draw. Goes close. DENUTO (3) So You Think gelding from Key Bar Knights on debut for the Kris Lees yard. Looked strong when second in his recent 1000m trial at Wyong. Will appreciate Osmond's 2kg claim and should be finding the line late. SEASTRAAND (10) filly by Written Tycoon from Down The River having her first start for the Neasham and Archibald camp. Better effort at her second trial this time in when third over 1030m at Rosehill. Stays in the mix from the good gate. SUGGESTED PLAY: Box Quinella 4,9,3,10. |

HORSEPOWER FEEDS & SUPPLEMENTS PROVINCIAL MAIDEN PLATE 1400m
More Cash to take up the running at a moderate tempo. OH DEER (5) improving mare who indicated a win was imminent after attacking the line late when a solid fourth to Ivana over 1350m at Wyong. Better suited at this track and the extra trip is in her favour. Ready to win. HERAION (7) lightly raced filly with the upside to win this. Returned from a let-up with an encouraging fourth over 1400m at Bathurst. Finds a fairly weak contest and expect to see her hold her position from the inside gate. SHARE THE JOY (6) seventeen start maiden who looks the value play out to the 1400m. On the quick back-up and go on her narrow placing here two back when assessing her chances. MORE CASH (4) fair debut when held a forward position before fading to finish third over 1200m at Sapphire Coast on February 1. Place prospects best. SUGGESTED PLAY: Oh Deer to win. |

DAVALI YEARLINGS @ EASTER 5YO&UP BENCHMARK 64 HANDICAP 1250m
Ollie's Secret to take charge ahead of Medinah at a good tempo. ANNOUNCING (9) looks better than these after holding her own in Highway company at her last three outings. Strong late from the wide draw when eighth to Clear Thinking over 1200m at Randwick. That form is good enough to be winning this with Fitzgerald's claim. DIVINE VICKY (5) underrated mare who improved sharply at the second run back when launched late for a close-up fourth to Opal Fields over 1100m at Warwick Farm in BM72 class. Looks the main danger over the 1200m. OLLIE'S SECRET (7) is racing in career-best form with the two wins from her last four starts. Stalked the speed when a dominant winner over 1200m at Tamworth. Drawn out for this and stays in the mix. STARS AND BARS (3) has needed the two runs back in town and ready to lift from the better gate. Had genuine excuses when going back from the wide draw second-up over 1000m at Warwick Farm. Has a tidy record here and not without each-way claims. SUGGESTED PLAY: Announcing to win. |

THE WINDSOR CASTLE, HAPPY 50TH KIM 5YO&UP BENCHMARK 64 HANDICAP 1500m
Genuine tempo with Lease leading the way. DON'TCHA THINK (4) consistent performer desperate for a change of luck. Chipped away late with the big weight when fourth over 1400m at this track. Winkers go on for the first time and looks the main danger. LEASE (5) was rewarded for his consistency when going to the front and holding on for a determined nose win as fav over 1400m here at latest. This looks slightly tougher but can give plenty of cheek again. OAKFIELD PRINCE (1) comes out of a strong race after drifting back early with the 61.5kg when fourth over 1600m at latest. Struck interference last start and can race closer today from the inside draw. ROYAL HARD HAT (3) returned from a let-up from the outside gate when a disappointing last over 1200m at the Gold Coast on February 8. Big improver with the claim. SUGGESTED PLAY: Don'tcha Think to win. |

A-PLUS CONTRACTING & POLY WELDING MIDWAY CLASS 1 HANDICAP 1400m
Strong pace from Hoo Haa, Casanova and Little Bit Yours, with Zounaka and Thebes on their heels. ZOUNAKA (3) promising filly who's come back much stronger this time in. Has a fitness edge over some of her more fancied rivals and looks well placed with Stanley's 3kg claim. Kept finding on the line when a narrow second over 1300m here. Can overcome the sticky draw and go close. MY PHAR LADY (4) well-bred filly who got off the mark at start six on resumption with a tenacious victory over 1300m at this track. Will drift back from the draw and surge late. No surprise to see her go on with the job this time in. CITY GOLD BANNER (1) classy debut winner at Warwick Farm two-back, then ran below expectations when over-racing without cover to finish seventh over 1500m at Kembla Grange. Expecting a much better performance today. THEBES (6) back in grade and failed to disappoint as fav when scoring over 1250m at Taree. Come back a more mature type and worth thought again. SUGGESTED PLAY: Box Quinella 3,4,1,6. |

THE ADVISER COLLECTIVE CONDITIONAL BENCHMARK 68 HANDICAP 1400m
Good early pressure with Touch Of Navy or Zousain Bolt likely to take up the running. RUBI'S SERVE (4) consistent mare who saves her best for her home track. Gets the blinkers added for the first time which should sharpen her up after failing narrowly when third over 1400m here at the latest. Leading contender again. ZOUSAIN BOLT (7) came out fast from the inside gate before fading badly in the straight when fifth over 1500m at Kembla Grange. Only carries 52.5kg today and is expected to return to form. TOUCH OF NAVY (1) tough gelding who resumed with a gritty on pace fourth over 1280m at Muswellbrook. Has an excellent second-up record and will give plenty of cheek. SCHOLL DEEP (9) trained locally and was three weeks between runs second-up when a poor eleventh over this track and trip. Drops further in weight and can turn it around quickly. SUGGESTED PLAY: Rubi's Serve to win. |
