BEST BET

Race 7 No.8 OLIVE BAGUETTE: Bolted in a Mornington maiden two starts back and then found one better at Cranbourne. Nice race to rebound in.

NEXT BEST

Race 5 No.2 SUPER SOLAR: Back in grade and should make up for being touched off last start over this track and distance.

Race 8 No.2 WATS NORMAL: Won two on the bounce and found the rise in class to metro midweek a bit steep. Back in winnable company here.

VALUE BET

Race 2 No.8 PROPHET’S SON: One of only two first starters in the field and expect both to be in the finish somewhere. Prophet’s Son trialled up nicely at Cranbourne recently.

Race 6 No.6 SHREWSBURY ROAD: Raced consistently without much success. Last start fourth at Bendigo would be good enough to get the job done.

THE JOCKEY – LUKE CARTWRIGHT
MADAM GRISELDA (Race 1 No.4), SECRET BEAU (Race 3 No.7), SUPER SOLAR (Race 5 No.2), KING’S CROSSING (Race 6 No.1) and WATS NORMAL (Race 8 No.2)
