Chrysalis Medispa QTIS Two-Years-Old Handicap 1000m
Gone Country and Tambo's Sister can be prominent. The babies kick us off. GONE COUNTRY (2) hasn't put a hoof wrong winning both starts over this track and trip in impressive fashion and successful hoop Sewell sticks in the saddle. Racing high on confidence and can bring up the hat-trick here. SCARLENA (4) has hit the frame in all three efforts and gets in well at the weights with the 2kg claim. Genuine top-three candidate. TAMBO'S SISTER (7) was well in the betting on debut but just missed the placings on that occasion. Where there's smoke there's fire and watch for sharp improvement. AUCHTERARDER (3) ran last here when facing the starter for the first time but wasn't too far away. Can feature with natural improvement. SUGGESTED PLAY: Backing Gone Country. |

WRC Tickets On Sale Now Maiden Plate 1000m
Just a modest tempo anticipated. STORM CAPITAL (2) has hit the frame in both starts since joining the new stable and strikes a very winnable contest here. Drawn to get a gun run in transit from gate three and looks the one they all have to run down. ARANCIA (5) is facing the starter for the first time but has shown ability at the trials and won't need to be a superstar to be competitive against this lot. Keep very safe. KENNY THE BAKER (1) has been heavily supported in all six career outings to date and will be at peak fitness now. Capable of a better showing. Former NSW galloper TYRANNICAL (3) is having his first run for the new barn and any market confidence must be noted. YES MA (8) best of the rest from the inside marble. SUGGESTED PLAY: Storm Capital to shed the maiden tag. |

Without a recognised leader, Valadore and Boom Bunny will likely set the pace. VALADORE (8) has been plying her trade in harder races down south and will appreciate the drop back in company here. Rock-hard fit now fourth-up from the break and will be right there when the judge calls a halt. MIGHTY CONQUEROR (2) is at the races for the first time but has placed in both local trials and this is not an overly strong affair. Respect any market push. VAN DER WOODSEN (9) has the most race experience in this line-up and gets some weight relief with the 1.5kg claim. Can earn some minor money. ONLY CRUNCHIE (3) importantly draws the inside alley here on debut and may feature in the finish. JOT GIRL (6) next best. SUGGESTED PLAY: Valadore to break the maiden status. |

Great Northern Brewing Co OPEN Handicap 1200m
Just a moderate pace anticipated. GOING NUCLEAR (6) resumes here but the form he showed when last in work was good enough for a race of this nature. Is a five-time winner here on his home circuit and a strong showing while fresh would not surprise. NORTHERN PRIDE (1) grows a leg for hoop Holt who has four wins and two placings from just seven steers. Has only missed a drum once in five starts over this course and distance and looms as the main danger. SWEET KISSES (3) will be at peak fitness for this and gets some weight relief with the 2kg claim. Top-three credentials. FAMILY STAR (7) is usually thereabouts and may earn a cheque. SUGGESTED PLAY: Boxed Quinella 6,1,3. |

Ladbrokes Same Race Multi BM72 Handicap 1400m
Reasonable tempo with a few going forward, headed by Strathcona. Competitive contest. KEEP ON RUNNING (3) has hit a purple patch of form with three wins and two seconds from his past five outings and is racing with a lot of confidence of late. Winning rider Cormack sticks in the saddle and should be going very close again. MATERIALIST (7) has won two of three over this seven-furlong journey and brings strong southern form to the table. Genuine top-three candidate. PRINCE AKEEM (6) has a handy record over this track and trip with two wins and five placings from ten attempts. Include in calculations. BURRANEER BUOY (1) is a four-time winner around this circuit and is a must for the multiples. RELEASE LE MISSILE (5) next in line from the inside alley. SUGGESTED PLAY: Keep On Running to continue the rich vein of form. |

MITAVITE RATINGS BAND 0 - 55 Handicap (QTIS bonuses applicable for 3, 4 & 5YO's) 1000m
Genuine pace with Remember Roy finding the front but it won't be a picnic with a few other speedy types engaged. Former Victorian galloper BURLINGTON ARCADE (2) broke the maiden status over this track and trip when having his first run for the new stable and will have derived a stack of confidence following that victory. Can go right on with the job now. HELL OF A BENTLEY (3) has gotten better with each run this time in work and looks to be building up to another win. Looks well placed. SHE'S A SWEET STAR (10) shed the maiden tag here in fine fashion at the latest effort and should be in the finish again with a repeat of that performance. CAROHVIC (9) boasts a win and two seconds from five attempts over this course and distance and can trouble the judge with any luck in running. OFFICE POLITICS (8) is a bit hit or miss but is capable enough on his day. Keep safe. SUGGESTED PLAY: Burlington Arcade to go back-to-back. |

Hygain BM55 Handicap 1300m
A distinct absence of early speed so don't expect any records to be broken. The penny has dropped for former NSW galloper MIND OVER MATTER (3) who has put back-to-back wins together here with Cormack being in the irons on both occasions. Looks ready to for the step-up in trip now and can easily bring up the hat-trick without surprising. VALUBIOUS (11) is one from one over this track and trip and will be rock-hard fit for this. Only needs some luck navigating from the sticky draw to be playing a major role in the outcome. Former Victorian OH SO THRILLING (2) is having her first run for the new stable but should find this easier than what she faced down south. Respect any market confidence. SILVER CITY (4) is a four-time winner over this distance range and can feature from the favourable draw. WINNING SAGA (8) rounds out the selections in a race with only a handful of chances. SUGGESTED PLAY: Mind Over Matter to win again. |

Ladbrokes Punter Assist Class 5 Handicap 1200m
Pride Of Venus to take up the running at a moderate tempo. PRIDE OF VENUS (3) returned in good order with a strong win over this course and distance and will have come on with that run now under the belt. Should be able to sit up on speed and will give backers a sight. RUSSIAN SUMMER (6) has a solid record over this six-furlong journey with three wins and five placings from 13 attempts. Rock-hard fit for this and can make his presence felt. KOBAYASTAR (9) is a consistent conveyance who has remarkably hit the top-five at her past 12 starts. Has to be included. KHUMBILA (5) will be at peak fitness now and may earn some minor money. COLE'S BEST (2) next in line with Holt in the saddle. SUGGESTED PLAY: Siding with Pride Of Venus. |
