TODAY’S FORM GUIDE AT THE TIP OF YOUR FINGER
BEST BET
CLEVER APPROACH (Race 3, No. 3 – $3.70)
Clever Approach has had 10 tries without a win but he gets in chance to break through at Donald on Tuesday. He’s been around the mark at his last two runs over 2000m and gets the perfect run from barrier three.
NEXT BEST
RUSH YOU (Race 1 No. 9 – $5)
Slow out and did a few things wrong but finished well when not beaten all that far on debut at Swan Hill. Will have derived plenty of benefit from that outing and the winkers go on. She can improve sharply at her second go.
TRUMPHOUSE (Race 4, No. 4 – $2.20)
Made an excellent return to Australia from Hong Kong when narrowly beaten at Sale first-up. Will be a lot fitter for that and won’t have to improve much to go one better at Donald on Tuesday.

BELLOWS (Race 6, No. 7- $4.80)
Developing type that won his maiden at Pakenham in June but his form tapered off after that. He’s had a break and looked like he has come back well in his jumpouts leading up to his return to racing at Donald.
VALUE BET
PRIVATE LOUNGE (Race 7, No. 6 – $6)
Private Lounge is a backmarker but she’s returned to racing in great order as shown by her excellent first-up second to the in-form Maritana at Mornington on September 10. She’s a second-up winner that will be hard to hold out if the speed is on.
THE JOCKEY
JAMIE MOTT
Jamie Mott just racks up the winners season after season and he has six great chances to add to his tally at Donald on Tuesday.
ZORRO’S GHOST (Race 1, No. 7 $16), METEORANO (Race 2, No. 5 $13), AZALY (Race 3, No. 13 $2.50), GINGERSON (Race 6, No. 15 $18), PRIVATE LOUNGE (Race 7, No. 6 $6), ONLY A MOTHER (Race 8, No. 1 $16).
