Race 1 – 12:00 PM SILVER SHADOW STAKES (1200 METRES)
No. 3 Champagne Cuddles is unbeaten in both career starts and her recent trials suggest that she has come back even better this time in. She is a little beauty and her draw ensures a perfect run throughout. No. 5 Alizee showed a good turn of foot to win first-up at Warwick Farm. She is fitter now and this filly is going to appreciate the rise in the trip. No. 2 Formality resumes and has had one nice trial this prep. Her form last prep was very good and I think the recent break would have matured this filly.
Back the 3 to win $3.2 bet now
Race 2 – 12:40 PM BENCHMARK 89 HANDICAP (2400 METRES)
No. 1 Sayed is a lightly raced stayer who is showing very good ability over the longer trips. He is a very fit horse who should have no concern carrying the big weight. No. 6 More Moet is improving with each run this prep, he has drawn well and the rise in the trip is a big tick. No. 3 Get On The Grange is a tough stayer who tries his best every start.
Back the 1 to win $1.5 bet now
Race 3 -1:15 PM HIGHWAY PLATE (1600 METRES)
No. 14 Arrestar won well over the mile last start at Doomben and barrier one this weekend ensures another perfect run throughout. No. 11 My Tagoson is a consistent galloper who ran a tough race behind Prada Miss last start and No. 3 Force Of Magic will appreciate the drop back in trip.
Back the 14 to win $3.2 bet now
Race 4 – 1:50 PM BENCHMARK 90 HANDICAP (1400 METRES)
No. 7 More To Gain returned in a nice race first-up at Rosehill and me though his effort to stick on for fourth was good. He is a talented horse who is fitter now and this gelding should get a lovely run throughout. No. 6 Embley hasn’t had much luck in both runs back this prep, but I think he has retuned a better horse this time in. He is ready to peak now and hopefully, McEvoy puts him in a more forward position on Saturday. No. 2 Comin’ Through is a very exciting horse who resumes on the back of two recent trials. He will be better suited over further, but I expect his class to take him a long way first-up. No. 9 Ebenos got out late and stormed home to finish second at Canterbury last start. He is ready to peak now and this gelding should appreciate the drop in weight.
Back the 7 each way $6.5 bet now
Race 5 – 2:25 PM UP AND COMING STAKES (1300 METRES)
No. 5 Assimilate got the cash on debut at Kembla and then came to this track second up to an won again like a very smart animal. I don’t know how good this horse is just yet, but his recent trial was top class and I am happy to have something on him at the good each way odds. Watch for him late. No. 1 Trapeze Artist resumes after running third in the Sires Produce earlier this year. His two recent trials have been slick and this distance is perfect, but I am a bit worried about the big weight first-up. Nice animal. No. 10 Cuba returned with a very nice effort first-up at Warwick Farm. This colt is a proper animal and I think he is going to go a long way in his career. He is fitter now and this trip suits, but I am a little bit worried about the awkward barrier. No. 6 Calculated is a very good looking colt with a nice little engine under his hood. He looked the winner last start, but died on his run and had to settle for second placing. This is tougher, but I like that he has had a recent trial and the drop back in trip should suit.

Race 6 – 3:00 PM BOB INGHAM WARWICK STAKES (1400 METRES)
The worlds bet the horse, No. 7 Winx returns to the track and I can’t wait to see this incredible animal annihilate her rivals again this time in. Her two trials have been awesome and it is scary to say, but I think she has returned a better horse again this time in. I love this horse and I hope she continues her winning streak. No. 8 Foxplay is a very smart horse who has her first crack at WFA. Her trials have been good and I expect her turn of foot to take her a long way this prep. No. 5 Inference resumes and he should be ready to go after two very hot trials. I think this horse is a star in the making and I am expecting a big prep from this good looking animal. Follow this horse.
Just cheer the queen of the turf
Race 7 – 3:40 PM TOY SHOW QUALITY (1300 METRES)
No. 2 Dixie Blossoms is a very consistent mare who resumes after one very nice trial. She hasn’t missed a placing in three attempts first-up and this mare is mapped to get a lovely run. If the speed is on then she will be storming home late. No. 9 Shazee Lee resumes after winning the Hawkesbury Guineas earlier this year. Her recent trial was a cracker and I can’t work out why she is such big overs. If she is ridden correctly from the back of the field then she will be in the finish. No. 3 Euro Angel is a lightly raced mare who has mixed it with some very nice horses in her short career. I liked the way she ran on in her recent trial and barrier two is ideal. No. 7 Imposing Lass is another classy mare who is resuming. Her recent trial was good, but I think she will be better suited over further.
Back the 2 to win and the 9 each way $21 bet now
Race 8 – 4:20 PM SHOW COUNTY QUALITY (1200 METRES)
No. 4 Spectroscope resumes and he showed serious ability in his first Australian prep. He looks ready to go after two recent trials and I am expecting big things from this horse this prep. We should see him sit just behind the speed and finish off strongly late. No. 7 Omei Sword resumes after bleeding in the Coolmore last prep. She is one of the most exciting horses in the Country and barrier one should be perfect for this horse on Saturday. Waller is a freak with these type of horses and if he can keep her sound then we might see her line up in the Everest. No. 8 Invader wasn’t disgraced behind Winx in his recent trial. He showed good ability last prep and I am expecting big things again this time in, but I think they might be a bit slick for him first-up. No. 10 Alluvion looked home the last start, but she was run down late and had to settle for second placing. She is ready to peak now and this is a good test to see how good she really is.
Back the 4 to win $5.5 bet now
Race 9 – 5:00 PM BENCHMARK 84 HANDICAP (1000 METRES)
No. 11 Super Too was heavily supported first-up, but she got tired late and ran fifth. I am happy to give her another chance because she is a talented horse who will really appreciate the senior rider going on her back. I would like to see her ridden just behind the speed. No. 2 Top Striker drops in grade after having not much luck at Rosehill last start. He is ready to peak now and this gelding will really appreciate the nice speed up front. No. 10 Clipper is a very consistent mare and I expect her to run another big race from the gun draw.
