NUM TIME COMMENT
1 02:00 TABTOUCH PLACE A SAME RACE MULTI MAIDEN 1200m
Expecting a strong tempo with Just Petty Cash, Loona Dawn and Dixie Princess going forward ahead of Fighting Thunder and One Shot Wonder. JUST PETTY CASH (12) settled handy on debut at Northam when beaten 1L before going for a spell. She's trialled nicely either side of the debut run and has switched to the Nash stable since. Maps for a lovely run in transit here and she looks beautifully placed to get the job done. GOOD SHOW (7) is a gelding on debut for the Grantham stable with two trials under his belt coming into this. Parnham hops on board despite not trialling the gelding, who is out of G1 placegetter Enticing Star. Should get his chance in what looks a suitable race on debut. ALL OUR FAITH (11) is another debutant who seems to be relishing life for the new stable up in Geraldton. While there's no doubt been issues in her early career, her recent trial was solid enough to suggest she can run a cheeky race. LOONA DAWN (10) has had a few goes now but is knocking on the door. COSTA STAR (9) is next best.  SUGGESTED PLAY: Just Petty Cash goes on top.
2 02:40 TABTOUCH SCAN MY BET MAIDEN 1400m
Il Bello Beals, Swishgobango and Extra Zero to take up the running at a strong tempo. MIDNIGHT STAR (12) comes here third-up and poised to strike after finishing off strongly over this trip at Bunbury last time out. She's had a couple of goes now but she's shown good talent in the process. Will need some things to go her way from the wide alley, but a forward showing is expected back to Country level. EXTRA ZERO (1) sat close to the speed and boxed on strongly over the mile here a fortnight ago. back to 1400m here, though he has placed at this trip on both occasions. Tsang has options from the draw and he can put his best foot forward again. IL BELLO BEALS (2) finished off nicely from the back over 1100m here last start and now jumps straight to 1400m. He ticks a few boxes from a decent alley and he can be in the finish once again. CATERAN (3) gets the blinkers on for the first time today and won't be far away if he runs up to his latest effort. SWISHGOBANGO (10) is one for exotics.  SUGGESTED PLAY: Midnight Star looks the one to beat.
3 03:20 TABTOUCH DOWNLOAD TODAY HANDICAP 1100m
Prince Ragnar should spear straight to the front of the small field. GOLD KEEPER (3) is racing in good order this time in work, missing out by 2.4L last time out when sitting on the speed. Coming right back in trip today looks the key with his impressive record at this track and trip. Should lob handy to the speed from the draw and can return to winning ways. PRINCE RAGNAR (1) finished 4.7L off the winner last time out, but that was in a stronger race at Belmont. his runs here prior were superb and the claim of Webster is a big tick. Can sit on the speed and prove tough to run down. LUCKEE FLORAN (6) was just 4.9L off the winner first-up over this track and trip when he faded out of contention. He'll be fitter for that effort though and his second-up record is very strong. Can turn in a much-improved performance here. ONEMORETWOMANY (2) is better than we have seen in his past couple and coming back in trip looks ideal. BE SEATED (4) isn't without a chance in this open race.  SUGGESTED PLAY: Gold Keeper goes on top.
4 04:00 TABTOUCH TRY BET LOOP HANDICAP 1200m
Solid tempo anticipated with Casino Royale and Versaille pressing forward with Liberty Dame not far away. VERSAILLE (4) got the job done here first-up in a photo before a 1.2L defeat most recently when the race favourite. She'll be fitter again for that effort though and she can dip in her ratings second-up. Happy to put her on top here as she can return to her best third-up. DEEP DISCRETION (2) gets the blinkers on first time today after sticking on well over 1400m last time out. She was only 2.7L off the winner last time out, but was in good touch prior and coming right back in trip looks a good move. Her record under this scenario is great and she's a leading chance. BRAVE SHOT (7) will find this easier than recent efforts, being switched into the Hammarquist yard since his last run at Bunbury. The inside draw can see him close to the speed and a better effort is on the cards. KARRI ON (9) finished off nicely last start over 1100m and is not to be discounted up in trip. SHOOT TO FAME (3) can improve second-up and over further here.  SUGGESTED PLAY: Versaille can bounce back to winning ways.
5 04:30 SHARE BETS WITH TABTOUCH BET LOOP HANDICAP 1200m
Plenty of pace likely from Kentucky Blue, Safe Hustle and Bonny Rock battling for the lead from Tycoon Demon. SAFE HUSTLE (7) sat close to the speed last start and exploded, running away for an emphatic victory over the 1100m journey. Rises in weight here, but he rates highly on what he did last start and 1200m is no issue. Can repeat the dose. SURE NO SOMETHING (1) was doing the chasing behind Safe Hustle last start and was best of the rest there after getting back in the run. Importantly, there's still some improvement to come here third-up and he meets Safe Hustle much better at the weights. Can turn the tables here. BONNY ROCK (5) comes back to this trip today after tiring out of the race over 1400m last time out. All 4 of her career victories have come at the 1200m journey and Derrick has options from the draw. Can put her best foot forward. TYCOON DEMON (4) disappointed last time out but was much better here two back. Not to be discounted. GOLD SPY (6) can improve sharply second-up and with a much better draw today.  SUGGESTED PLAY: Safe Hustle can go back-to-back.
6 05:00 TABTOUCH HANDICAP 1600m
Looks a keen contest with Sanabeau and Mystery Bullet pressing for the lead with Let's Sea and Desert Sleeve close at hand. LORD ARCADIA (8) was left with too much to do on resumption at Bunbury when getting a mile back over 1400m. Now straight up to the mile, Chris Parnham hops on board and the gelding draws much better this time around. Can shed his maiden tag. SANABEAU (5) is better than we saw last time out when dropping back to the 1400m journey. Her effort over this track and trip two back was sound and this looks a more suitable race than what she tackled most recently. Has the speed to roll across and can put her best foot forward. LET'S SEA (4) dropped right back in trip last start and turned in a better effort than we saw two back. The claim of Tsang means he's still right down in the weights and this trip looks his best. Can be thereabouts. MIFF MUFFERED MOOF (3) won well last start and creates some interest coming back in trip. THE RUSH (2) is next best out to the mile now.  SUGGESTED PLAY: Lord Arcadia is the one to beat.
7 05:30 TABTOUCH WATCH SKY RACING HANDICAP 1600m
Blood Saint to take up the running with Hot Nova and Hillside Horace close at hand. NOW SHOWING (2) got a long way back over this course and distance last time out and ran over the top to score in impressive fashion. He may be able to sit a touch closer from a better gate this time around and if he can replicate the way he finished off last start, he can get the job done again. CALEB (3) is another who flew home to win, scoring by a nose over the 1400m trip. The form out of that race has been good and he possesses plenty of upside going to the mile now. May get back in the run, but watch for his finishing burst. TRULY SUPREME (7) couldn't reel in the winner here a fortnight ago, beaten 0.2L at this track and trip. The inside draw is a big tick and he sat on the speed last time he drew and inside barrier. Expecting another forward run today. CRAMPIN' MY STYLE (4) is ticking along nicely this time in work and can't be discounted. HOT NOVA (12) was best of the rest behind a dominant winner in town last week and has to be included.  SUGGESTED PLAY: Now Showing goes on top.
