BEST BET

EL TERCERO (Race 3 No.4): El Tercero charged home from a long way back when second on debut at Pakenham. Expecting him to be harder to hold out this time.

NEXT BEST

NOTHINGELSEMATTERS (Race 5 No.7): Nothingelsematters did his best work late at Pakenham second-up. He’ll be fitter again and should relish stepping up to 1800m.

GENRICHERO (Race 6 No.7): Genrichero was tough again when narrowly beaten at The Valley. He’s racing in great heart and again looks a terrific each-way chance.

VALUE BET

CARNIVAL ROW (Race 8 No.10): The consistent Carnival Row was competitive throughout the winter and has trialled exceptionally well leading up to this. He can fire fresh.
