MORNINGTON September 13.

Haven’t raced here at Mornington for near on three months and what a better place to be in the early spring! Well not quite, track a soft 7 in the morning but the forecast is for a wintery day with rain through the late morning and into the afternoon and a chance of hail! Makes it tricky with not much recent wet track form.

BEST BET: Race 7 # 4 Levendi  $2.4 bet now

BEST VALUE: Race 8 #7 Jalan Jalan  $6.5 bet now

SELECTIONS:

Race 2: 4-7-9-5 The$1m debutant Lady Cartier (well named isn’t it) has shown enough to shine here on debut difficult race.  $3.6 bet now

Race 3: 4-6-2-5 Small field but the Spanish Reef form around 4 Eureka Street appeals and proven wet.  $2.35 bet now

Race 4: 3-8-1-5 Falika can improve sharply off return run in a race where not much would surprise.  $2.9 bet now

Race 5: 2-8-9-1 Superior soft tracker gets conditions to suit – Birds Of Tokyo  $3.8 bet now
