BEST BET
Race 6 No. 3. Inhibitions
Enjoyed a sweet run last start but unfortunately couldn’t get out at a crucial stage and probably would have won the race. Tick over trial to keep her up to the mark and this looks a great race for her to win with any luck.

NEXT BEST
Race 4 No. 7. Hennessy Lad
Drawn to get the gun run with Trumby on board. The race looks to have good speed on paper and if that eventuates he should get the soft run and be strong in the finish. He looks primed third-up for the mile here and he has had a win on soft conditions, so that wont worry him.

EACH-WAY
Race 2 No. 9. The Prodigal Son
Barnstorming win at Flemington and strikes another winnable race here and has the goat on board who knows him well after their victory together last start. He hasn’t been to the Valley, however I feel he is very adaptable and it shouldn’t worry him.

ROUGHIE
Race 8 No. 10. Hypothetical
Toughest race of the day and I’ve found my roughie here. She is a speedy honest mare who is resuming off two solid trials. Stable mate Midwest comes out which also takes some of the speed out of this race too. She’s drawn well and if the race is run to suit her, she will take catching.
