Last week … Four winners. Shayne O’Cass earned the plaudits for his best bet, Ranier, saluting at $31! His value bet, Kinane, also won at good odds ($7). Darren Prendergast made it back-to-back wins with King’s Legacy ($2.70), while Ray Thomas banked another winner with Rubisaki ($1.85).

Note: Nathan Exelby, Glenn McFarlane, Lincoln Moore and Chris Vernuccio are on leave.

The meetings: SUNSHINE COAST (9 races, start 11.48am), MORPHETTVILLE PARKS (9 races, 12.41pm), ROSEHILL GARDENS (8 races, 12.50pm), FLEMINGTON (8 races, 1.05pm), ASCOT (9 races, 3.13pm).

ROSEHILL GARDENS

RAY THOMAS (Daily Telegraph). Form: 27171

AMANGIRI (Race 7, No. 8 — $4.60)

Back in grade here but significantly she is on a firmer track. Drawn to suit and either leads or settles on speed in a controlling position. Good mare on her day and very effective third-up from a spell. Hard to beat.

Value bet: OXFORD TYCOON (Race 3, No. 3 — $12)

Live And Free impressed in a recent trial and could surprise first-up in the Hawkesbury Gold Cup. Picture: AAP

MATT JONES (Daily Telegraph). Form: 44122

IN HER TIME (Race 4, No. 1 — $3.60)

This multiple Group 1-winning mare had no luck last start in a race that didn’t suit her at all and she still ran one of the fastest last 400m on the card.

Value bet: LAURE ME IN (Race 2, No. 3 — $8)

SHAYNE O’CASS (Sportsman). Form: 52131

LIVE AND FREE (Race 7, No. 16 — $7)

Deserves to win a stakes race having been dreadfully unlucky a few times. The John O’Shea-trained son of Savabeel was beaten a nose in the Festival Stakes over this same track and distance and could not have been any more impressive in his trial win.

Value bet: TATO KEY (Race 5, No. 4 — $41)

DARREN PRENDERGAST (NewsRacing). Form: 21311

AMANGIRI (Race 7, No. 8 — $4.60)

Will be much better suited on a firmer surface and has a good record at this distance.

Value bet: MULTAJA (Race 4, No. 4 — $8.50)

LATEST BETTING: TAB FIXED ODDS

FLEMINGTON

MICHAEL MANLEY (Herald Sun). Form: 54102

VOW AND DECLARE (Race 4, No. 1 — $2)

Austalia’s leading stayer who loves Flemington. He should be able to carry the weight and prove too good for his rivals in this quality handicap.

Value bet: SIGN SEAL DELIVER (Race 6, No. 7 — $14)

Melbourne Cup winner Vow And Declare has a great record at Flemington. Picture: AAP

NICK QUINN (TAB). Form: 24s06

SACRAMENTO (Race 6, No. 4 — $5.50)

Has come a long way in a short time this campaign and caught the eye when fifth in the ATC Derby.

Value bet: MANOLO BLAHNIQ (Rosehill, Race 7, No. 14 — $8.50)

LATEST BETTING: TAB FIXED ODDS
