NUM TIME COMMENT
1 02:02 65 THIRTY EVENTS MAIDEN 1200m
Loona Dawn to take charge ahead of Sassyassa at a good tempo. COUPE DEBURJ (8) has joined the Murray stable since her last run 79 days ago. She had showed promise until her latest efforts where she got back and never featured. Those were in stronger company than what she faces today however and she can put her best foot forward. FIGHTING THUNDER (1) went forward last time but couldn't quicken in the run home and finished fifth over 1117m at Geraldton. Looks to be in the right race to play a big role. LOONA DAWN (4) took advantage of the good draw and raced on the pace last start then boxed on well to finish second, beaten one length, over 1117m at Geraldton. Perfectly placed and is sure to give this a mighty shake. MAGNIFICENT MIA (6) keep safe.  SUGGESTED PLAY: Siding with Coupe Deburj.
2 02:42 PINK MOON HANDICAP 1100m
Twelveunder is the likely leader at a strong tempo. ADDICTIVE DREAM (3) is fresh today and will be fitter for a recent trial. She's joined the Noske stable in the break after a down campaign when racing in tougher company. Likely to get back from the draw but her best form says she's good enough. SCENIC BOOM (6) is better than he showed last time out when sitting on the tempo over this trip at Geraldton. Back to 1100m seems a big tick and he'll carry no weight after the claim of Murray. Can sit handy and be hard to reel in. TWELVEUNDER (7) resumes here without a trial but she has been placed fresh in the past. She should be prominent from the outset and if she's up to the mark first-up, she'll be in this for a very long way. MRS KANGAROO (2) returns from a layoff of seven months. Scored over 1205m at Roebourne to launch the last campaign. Boasts a first-up record of two wins and two placings from six starts. Can make her presence felt. HOT PUDDIN (4) is next best.  SUGGESTED PLAY: Siding with Addictive Dream.
3 03:15 LAMBRON CONTRACTING HANDICAP 1100m
Quick As Silver to go to the lead at a genuine tempo. TRULY SUPREME (1) is knocking on the door of a win, going under narrowly in her past couple. Blinkers come off now as she drops in trip, but she does come into this on the fresh side. She's an adaptable type and she can play a leading role. QUICK AS SILVER (2) is better than she showed last time out and getting back to 1100m may hold the key. Drawn to get every chance today and can put her best foot forward. COZZIES CHOICE (7) went forward from the low draw last time before fading to finish eighth over 1200m at Geraldton. Another bold showing is expected. MATSOKA (3) comes here off a break of six-and-a-half months. Worth noting he filled a minor placing when returning from a spell last prep over 1200m at Port Hedland. Has found the right race and is worth including. GOLDEN OPERA (5) can bounce back following a disappointing performance last time out.  SUGGESTED PLAY: Truly Supreme to win.
4 03:50 TABTOUCH SPRINT 1100m
Solid tempo expected primarily from Prince Ragnar and Big Bopper. SAFE HUSTLE (5) is better than he's shown his past couple, with his prior form stacking right up. The better draw today is a big tick and he should be close to the speed, which is how she ran her best efforts. Can return to winning ways. PRINCE RAGNAR (1) led them up last start over 1217m at Geraldton and felt the pinch late. Back to 1100m today is a big tick and the claim of Cheung comes in handy. Back in grade and can be tough to beat. LOVA SESSION (3) is returning from a spell of 12 weeks. Finished sixth at Belmont Park over 1200m at the first run last prep. Now with a new trainer Peter Bamford. One of the genuine hopes in the race. SIMPLY ROSSO (2) raced on the pace to the bend before fading to finish ninth, beaten 5 lengths, over this journey at Geraldton. Should give a bold sight. TALKING HEADS (6) won't be far away.  SUGGESTED PLAY: Safe Hustle looks the one.
5 04:29 DONGARA SWAN DRAUGHT CUP 1850m
A keen contest with Argyle Star prominent courtesy of the rails draw, joined by Kentucky Blue and Cantilever. ENDLESS JOY (12) never got into it last start at Ascot when tackling a CL3. Her form prior was very strong however and those efforts stack right up in this field. Drawn nicely with no weight on her back and a forward showing is expected. ARGYLE STAR (6) finished out of the money when fresh from a spell two starts back then was beaten 1.75 lengths when eighth over 1600m at Pinjarra two weeks ago. Nicely placed to feature in the finish. LET'S SEA (9) proved too strong two runs ago but couldn't follow that up last time out when seventh over 1600m at Geraldton, beaten 3 lengths. Nicely placed to play a leading role. TRUEVINSKY (1) can bounce back following a disappointing run last time out.  SUGGESTED PLAY: Endless Joy to win.
6 05:04 HUNGRY'S - GREG ALEXANDER MEMORIAL HANDICAP 1200m
Choice Bid should have enough pace to lead a low-pressure contest. RUBICK DELIGHT (9) improved nicely second-up to get the job done in a Maiden last time out when sitting on the speed at Geraldton. The good draw should see her prominent in the run and she can improve again third-up into the campaign. Can go on with the job. THE RUSH (1) finished eighth over 1600m at Geraldton last time out following a determined win two back. Will find this a little easier than last time. Well placed and is one of the contenders. RUN TEDDY RUN (10) was never really a threat when resuming last start over 1400m at Belmont Park, finishing 7 lengths from the winner in eighth. Has a win and three minor placings at this journey from six starts and is not to be discounted. LIM'S SARBACH (3) is next.  SUGGESTED PLAY: Siding with Rubick Delight.
