TODAY’S FORM GUIDE AT THE TIP OF YOUR FINGER
BEST BET
PALACIO MUSICO (Race 3, No 1, $2.50)
Gelded and spelled since decent performance at The Valley, where he over-raced and covered ground. Showed enough last preparation to be contending here.
NEXT BEST
BOSS’N THE MOSS (Race 5, No 2, $4.20)
Controlled the race during a dominant 1980m win at Tatura. Should appreciate the step to 2124m.
DARCI’S TUNE (Race 6, No 5, $5)
Expect substantial improvement off Echuca 1400m 7th last time when slowly away and caught wide after drifting markedly in betting.

NEBARAZ (Race 8, No 2, $7.50)
Capable of much better than recent form suggests. Blinkers on again and Tayla Childs’ three-kilo claim is critical.
