RANDWICK
NIC ASHMAN (Daily Telegraph). Tipster’s form: 60270
WHITE DOVE
Race 3, No. 2
Might only be $5 about town but she eats mud for breakfast, lunch and dinner and sometimes even sneaks in a midnight snack. Should be shorter.
TAB Fixed Odds: $4.40
STEPHEN ZAMMIT (Daily Telegraph). Form: 54x60
INVINZABELL
Race 4, No. 3
Was consistent without winning prior to last start game all-the-way win over 1600m at Warwick Farm on a Soft(6) on April 8. Handled the 1600m with style on the wet track on that occasion and sure to have similar conditions here. Drawn well and has the services of the leading rider, James McDonald. Looks good value.
TAB Fixed Odds: $6
DARREN PRENDERGAST (Super Racing). Form: 56350
DARCI MAGIC
Race 7, No. 10
Got well back and worked up along fence when fourth to stablemate Sure And Fast in Provincial Championship Final. Fitter for two runs now and will be suited by step up to 1600m.
TAB Fixed Odds: $8
FLEMINGTON
MATT STEWART (Herald Sun). Tipster’s form: 99226
ZARABEEL
Race 2, No. 13
Excellent on debut and Flemington suits her run-on style. Perfectly drawn to come with one run.
TAB Fixed Odds: $8.50
ROD NICHOLSON (Herald Sun). Form: 35112
RAWNAQ
Race 4, No. 7
Looks a bet to nothing. Past two have been super and this distance suits. Stays on 54kg and drawn well.
TAB Fixed Odds: $4.80
DARYL TIMMS (Herald Sun). Form: 25920
SHOREHAM
Race 4, No. 1
Long time between drinks but does like Flemington and distance is ideal.
TAB Fixed Odds: $6.50
SIMON MOY (Super Racing). Form: 3001
STIPULATE
Race 7, No. 1
A recent barrier trial at Lindsay Park has the stable convinced the son of Dansili is back to his top. Apprentice Jye McNeil claims 2kg to bring him in with 58kg. Should see improved effort on his first-up failure.
TAB Fixed Odds: $7.50
GOLD COAST
NATHAN EXELBY (The Courier-Mail). Form: 05126
INVINZABEEL
Race 1, No. 5
Stretched the handy Good Project at Randwick, clocking very fast time last prep, then appreciated getting to the mile 2nd up to win at Warwick Farm. Extra trip holds no fears and he can roll them along at a solid clip and give a big sight.
TAB Fixed Odds: $8
BRAD DAVIDSON (Gold Coast Bulletin). Form: 63500
ROCKET TO GLORY
Race 7, No. 5
Yes, this is tougher than what he has been beating but don’t forget he is rock-hard fit where a lot of these are kicking off their campaigns. The last 100m will be the worry but he will run a cheeky race and he has been clocking solid sectionals of late.
TAB Fixed Odds: $21
MORPHETTVILLE
LINCOLN MOORE (The Advertiser). Tipster’s recent form: 4
MISS JOOLIA
Race 8, No. 11
Boasts some useful form on rain affected tracks and has trialled well ahead of her return.
Rider Eran Boyd is in-form, she’ll be finishing off smartly at the business end and the $10 on TattsBet looks great each-way value.
TAB Fixed Odds: $12
BEN SCADDEN (The Advertiser). Form: 03
SANDHILL WARRIOR
Race 4, No. 5
This gelding is very honest and has a solid record on rain-affected going. A natural leader, expect him to be in the thick of things for long way for rider Amy Herrmann.
TAB Fixed Odds: $7.50
