HRC MOTEL 4YO&UP MAIDEN PLATE 1300m
Expecting Harry's Evidence to find the lead but there will be plenty of pressure over the sharp trip. HURRY MISS (9) well bred mare ready to shed her maiden status. Closed strongly over the 1400m from the wide draw when a narrow second at Kembla Grange. Finally drawn a low gate and no excuses today. HARRY'S EVIDENCE (7) comes out a strong race on resumption when nailed late by Hillier to finish second over 1200m at Newcastle. That form has since been franked and expected to go close. CALL ME MOJO (3) returns from a spell of eight months after bumping into some handy types in his second campaign. Fitted with the two solid trial wins and Jason Collett keeps the ride. Top three player. WHERE'S MY HALO (13) resuming. Motored late on debut for a solid fourth over 1300m at this track last February 20. Has upside and looks ready to go with the two trials. SUGGESTED PLAY: Hurry Miss in a tight contest. |

BLAKES MARINE MAIDEN HANDICAP 1100m
Expecting Gamp to find the lead but there will be plenty of pressure over the sprint trip. Tricky race with plenty of chances. TUSCANY (4) total forgive at his first run back when covered ground from the wide gate to finish a fading seventh over 1100m at Randwick Kensington. Key jockey change today and ready to bounce back. BANKNOTE HUSTLER (11) resumes from a spell of five months and gelded over the break. Failed to make an impression in his two starts in Listed and Group company at his first prep. Has impressed in both trials and expected to figure prominently. OHOPE (3) progressive colt resuming. Outclassed in the VRC Sires', then back in grade when a fighting fourth over 1300m at Warwick Farm last April. Looks forward enough with the two trials and has a host of gear changes for this. NARCISSIST (12) returns from a lengthy break. Had to go back from the outside gate on debut when a plugging seventh over 1000m at Gosford back on October 26, 2023. Given the two trials and maps to get a soft run. Stays in the mix. SUGGESTED PLAY: Tuscany in a strong contest. |

ST JOHNS PARK BOWLING CLUB CLASS 1 HANDICAP 1500m
Plenty of pressure on from the outset. EXCEED PERFECTION (3) only the one win from seventeen starts and finds his race today. Up in trip with the 57kg when collared late in the heavy going to finish a narrow second over 1400m at Kembla Grange. Should get control early and prove hard to catch. PATISSIER (1) stalked the speed on resumption when a tenacious maiden winner over 1400m at Kembla Grange. Can overcome the draw and stake his claim. THE IRON STAR (6) at his peak now after he gripped on late when third over 1500m at this track. Blinkers go on and capable in this stronger contest. BENAMERA (4) near his top and gives the impression he's looking for the 1500m. Attacked the line from the wide draw when a slashing third over 1350m at Wyong. Will be powering late. SUGGESTED PLAY: Exceed Perfection to bounce back to winning form. |

PIONEER SERVICES MAIDEN PLATE 1500m
Genuine tempo with Emelia's Magic and The Iron Star pressing for the lead. GOLDEN CENTURY (2) smart stayer resuming. Placed in the NZ Derby before joining the Waller yard last prep. Unwanted in betting and ran accordingly when seventh in the G1 ATC Australian Derby over 2400m last April. Winkers come off and fitted with the two respectable trials. J Mac rides and sure to be well fancied. SIRIUS LEGEND (5) closed off strongly at his first run back when a courageous second over 1400m at Randwick Kensington. Looking for this trip and further now and since fitted with a 1044m tick over trial. MOUNTAIN QUEEN (14) heavily supported ($1.40 fav), at her second race when a plugging fourth over 1600m at Gosford. Tempo suits and watch for her pouncing late. THE CRISTAL (9) returned for her second prep with a respectable second over 1500m here. Will relish Fitzgerald's 2kg claim and not to be underestimated. The chances don't end there. SUGGESTED PLAY: Golden Century and Sirius Legend to slug it out. |

XXXX GOLD CLASS 1 HANDICAP 1100m
Strong early tempo with Valilee and Sea Admiral leading the way. VANLEE (6) crunched in betting third up ($1.55 fav), when a commanding maiden victory over this track and trip. Can go on with it now and adept in all conditions. HONEY PERFUME (5) finished in the minor money at her last five outings and maps to get a better run from the low gate. Produced some slick closing splits when going under narrowly to Against The Law in a strong contest over 1100m at this track. Gets a better setup and will be hard to stop again. SEA ADMIRAL (8) strengthened up over the break and back in class when a tough on pace winner over 1000m at Kembla Grange. Has further upside and drawn well. LADY MEMPHIS (11) deep into her prep and back in class after struggling at her last four outings. Will sit off the fast tempo and surge late. SUGGESTED PLAY: Vanlee can keep the wining momentum going. |

GODOLPHIN PROVINCIAL CLASS 1 HANDICAP 1300m
More Voltage should lead but there are a few other speedy types who can keep him honest. ALL TOO WILD (8) improving mare fitter after the two good runs. Sat on the speed but no match for Tonkatsu Goddess when second over 1200m at Gosford. Ready to peak and has a key jockey change today. COMMANDING BELLE (6) held in high regard by the stable and set to bounce back from the low draw. Covered ground and chased strongly when second over 1300m at Kembla Grange. Comes out of a strong contest and ready to bounce back. DENIAL (1) resumed for the Mitch Beer stable when getting off the mark with a fighting maiden win over 1200m at Kembla Grange. Holly Durnan keeps the ride and no surprise to see him make it two on the trot. ALFRED (3) came out quickly from the low draw when shooting clear in the straight for a commanding 3.5 len win over 1300m at Wyong. Looked good on that occasion and not to be underestimated. SUGGESTED PLAY: All Too Wild And Commanding Belle to fight it out. |

CLARENDON TAVERN MIDWAY BENCHMARK 64 HANDICAP 1800m
From the wide draw Sunset Park can cross and set up a solid tempo. CASH ME (1) kept his good second-up record intact when improving sharply with the 59kg to get up late over 1500m at this track. Proven at the trip and Chambers' claim keeps her in the contest. BLESSTAS (6) down in the weights with the claim after resuming with a commanding win over 1650m at Moruya. Can go on with it now and will have little trouble running a strong 1800m. Sure to be thereabouts. THIS IS THE MOMENT (2) another from the Mitch Beer yard due for a change of luck. Was a month between runs when he finished hard for a narrow second over 1660m at Moruya. Fitter now and has genuine top three prospects. SUNSET PARK (3) improving stayer who worked hard on resumption from the wide gate when a plugging fourth over 1300m here. Undefeated second up and desperate for this trip. Value chance. SUGGESTED PLAY: Box Quinella 1,6,2,3. |
