Race 1
#16 Seattle Skyline: Made a promising debut over this course and distance 3 weeks ago, he should of come on leaps and bounds from that run, he will be much more aware of what is going on having had a run under the belt. He will be extremely tough to beat under quality jockey Kegan De Melo, who has been booked to ride him for trainer Dennis Drier.
2nd, 3rd, 4th: #4 Rand Hedge, #14 Raw Courage, #15 Roy's Stormer
Inc: 1,2,3,10
Race 2
#11 Hallowed Spring: Hinted that she may have ability, when running third on debut over this course and distance 3 weeks ago. The experience should of brought her on, and she will be more aware of what is expected of her. She gets the services of talented rider Kegan De Melo who will be in the irons for trainer Dennis Drier.
2nd, 3rd, 4th: #3 Beau Var, #15 Starwin, #7 Amadora
Inc: 1,5,12
Race 3
#1 Ole Gunnar: Finished strongly to win a good race over this course and distance last time out. He is a very solid miler and has serious claims of following up under apprentice Tristan Godden (- 2.5 kg) who will be in the saddle for the ever popular Paul Lafferty.
2nd, 3rd, 4th: #5 Secret Warning, #4 Caribbean Bay #6 Fantasy Art
Inc: 2,3
Race 4
#5 Rock Hard: Must be forgiven for a poor showing in his latest performance, he did not seem to enjoy the poly and should be a lot better racing back on the grass. If the gelding reproduces his penultimate effort, he will go close under balanced rider Kegan De Melo who steps up for the Mark Dixon yard.
2nd, 3rd, 4th: #1 Roy's Past, #12 Red Hot Russian, #3 Portman Square
Inc: 2,4,6,7,10,13
Race 5
#6 Inga: Broke her maiden over this course and distance 10 weeks ago, she has been put away and rested since then; but the break could only have done her a world of good, as she would of matured and strengthened up during that period. Hard trying jockey Warren Kennedy retains the ride for the Gavin Van Zyl stable.
2nd, 3rd, 4th: #4 Luna Sea, #8 Roy's Dollar, #9 Silver Inspiration
Inc: 1,2,3,10,12
Race 6
#6 All True Man: Finished the runner up over this course and distance when he was last seen on the racetrack. He has found some confidence and is the horse on the up, he gets along extremely well with apprentice Tristan Godden who will once again be in the saddle for conditioner Pat Lunn.
2nd, 3rd, 4th: #4 Roy's Marciano, #1 Risky Rosco, #2 Captain Ellio
Inc: 5
Race 7
#5 Executive Power: Ran a fair race in his last visit to the racecourse, when finishing fourth over this course and distance. He is a very honest sort, who always gives of his very best and should once again be in the mix under veteran jockey Alec Forbes who takes the ride for trainer Mike Miller.
2nd, 3rd, 4th: #2 Just Ask Me, #9 Highway Explorer, #6 Purple Mountains
Inc: 4,8
Race 8
#7 Deep Down Rebel: Bids for a hatrick of wins, admittedly she did not beat much in her last two victories, but all they can do is win and she has proven herself capable of racing in very strong company in the past. She enjoys having apprentince Tristan Godden on her back, he will once again climb aboard her for the Kumaran Naidoo stable.
2nd, 3rd, 4th: #5 Peach Delight, #1 Isingamoya, #8 Respect At Bay
Inc: 3,4,6
Race 9
#6 Millrace: Has produced a pair of acceptable performances in his last two starts to date, he is capable of a lot better, and gets the services of multiple July winning jockey Anton Marcus who takes the ride for the Glenn Puller yard.
2nd, 3rd, 4th: #1 Chill, #11 Big Bird, #9 Apple Jack
Inc: 10,13
