Big nine race card to contend with at Warracknabeal on Monday and a soft track with Jack Martin the jockey to follow getting legged aboard a half dozen decent rides, and some at big odds.

BEST BET

TARAKAN

R7 No. 8 $7

Led and won at Edenhope last start, denying Didier who has come out and won since. Up in weight but drawn well and proven in wet ground. Will take plenty of running down.

NEXT BEST

DISS AND DOT

R2 No. 8 $3.50

Three-year-old Dissident filly only narrowly missed out in March at Warrnambool and was tipped out for a short break. Inside draw a bonus.

RATTLE AND BANG

R3 No. 6 $2.50

Warracknabeal is a long way to go from Mornington for a Monday maiden. Defeats in town – taking on the likes of Written Beauty and Malkovich – bookend placings at Mornington and Echuca in May.

VALUE BET

MILLENNIAL GIRL

R8 No. 16 $18

Just the two wins in 20 career starts but ran third in two of her past four starts. Drawn perfectly and both wins were on Soft ground.

THE JOCKEY

JACK MARTIN

The 25-year-old jockey has partnered with the right stables to have an impact on Monday.

LADY ADELAIDE (R1 No. 10 $4.40), SUN PERLE (R2 No. 12 $7), IMPOSING BROOK (R3 No. 10 $6.50), GOLD HELMET (R5 No. 10 $23), THE MITRE (R6 No. 7 $12) and PRITCHETT (R9 No. 16 $31).
