RACE 1:Maiden Plate (F&M) 1200m Straight

HONOLULU is the form of the race. Her two career starts have been very smart and she may be the right one. ROYAL CRUISE was beaten under a length by a smart sort last time. She should go well. DIMINUTIVE comes off a lay off. Her form shows she may run near the front here. FUTURE PAGE and TEESSIDE are both well bred first timers. Watch the betting.

SELECTION: 1st:- HONOLULU ** (10); 2nd:- ROYAL CRUISE (2); 3rd:- DIMINUTIVE (1)

RACE 2:Maiden Plate (F&M) 1200m Straight

FIRST SOVEREIGN ran very close up on debut. She will only improve and will take a power of beating. FANCY FLUTTER was just beaten last time out. On that run she will go close but has been rested. CRYSTAL BAY was well beaten last time out. If she repeats her penultimate run she can be right there. NOVA ZEMBLA is a daughter of Western Winter making her debut. Watch the betting. THISISTHEWON ran a decent debut but may have a little to find.

SELECTION: 1st:- FIRST SOVEREIGN ** (12); 2nd:- FANCY FLUTTER (6); 3rd:- CRYSTAL BAY (2)

RACE 3:Maiden Plate 1000m Straight

SNAPPY ran a very good race last time out on July Day when beaten in open company. Back in this he should run well. DIAMANTAIRE improved in her last run and she should run a big race. RUN AMOK ran a good race on debut last time out. He has been rested but if he is fit he will go close. MJ THRILLER let the side down last time out but on form prior to that he can run well. TRIPPLE SOLL is a first timer who could be anything.

SELECTION: 1st:- SNAPPY *** (4); 2nd:- DIAMANTAIRE (8); 3rd:- RUN AMOK (13)

RACE 4:Maiden Plate 1450m Bend

CASTLETHORPE is a very good sort and should have no issues in beating this field. BIG CITY ANGEL ran very close up on debut and is the biggest danger. BEACHES is a well bred first timer by Dynasty. He will have no problems with the distance but may only be good enough to place at this stage. ASSIGN THE ASSASIN is a battling sort but can place as he never runs a bad race. MISTER NICOLAS is another first timer who should be better than the rest.

SELECTION: 1st:- CASTLETHORPE *** (10); 2nd:- BIG CITY ANGEL (9); 3rd:- BEACHES (8)

RACE 5:MR 70 Hcp (F&M) 1450m Bend

VARIETY SHOW improved many lengths last time out to beat a very good field. She can follow up. DANCING EYES is a very consistent sort and she should be there again. CHEKECHE is well above average but let the team down last time. She is better than that and deserves another chance. XTRAVAGANZA comes in here well weighted and could be the dark horse. BLACK CURRENT has each way claims here.

SELECTION: 1st:- VARIETY SHOW * (2); 2nd:- DANCING EYES (4); 3rd:- CHEKECHE (8)

RACE 6:MR 84 Hcp (F&M) 1200m Straight

POSSIBLE DREAM is well above average and she can return to winning ways here. ENRICHMENT ran a great race last time when winning on July Day. She can follow up. AREWEHAVINGFUNYET was far from disgraced last time out in a good field. She should be right there. KUSHONI LANGA has some ability but has been off recently. ALLAGAIN has a little to find on her latest run but she could run into the money.

SELECTION: 1st:- POSSIBLE DREAM * (1); 2nd:- ENRICHMENT (5); 3rd:- AREWEHAVINGFUNYET (2)

RACE 7:MR 68 Hcp 1600m Bend

HOW MANY TO WON ran well last time out to a top class sort. On that run he will be right there. MOLOTOV seems to be coming to form lately and should be respected. KING THOM has claims on his good penultimate run to a subsequent winner. He can upset them. FERGUSON just won his maiden in his penultimate and last time ran a bad race. Back in this class he can go well. SPANISH PRINCE ran well last time after a good win prior to that. One just gets the feeling he may have a little to find at the weights.

SELECTION: 1st:- HOW MANY TO WON * (6); 2nd:- MOLOTOV (2); 3rd:- KING THOM (11)

RACE 8:Novice Plate (F&M) 1900m Bend

GIBSON GIRL is in very good form. She looks well above average and can confirm herself here. LALLAN has come right in her last few runs and she will be a big runner. TRICIA'S SPUR has class but has problems too. She may just need it. WE HAVE LIFT OFF is now coming right and she should run on top of them. CHABLIS can sneak into minor money too after her maiden win last time out.

SELECTION: 1st:- GIBSON GIRL ** (3); 2nd:- LALLAN (5); 3rd:- TRICIA'S SPUR (2)

Race 9:Maiden Plate (F&M) 1900m Bend

CRIMSON GLOW was just denied last time out and she should make amends over this trip. TAMORA also improved many lengths last time out and on that effort she will be very close. GO GET IT has raced into second in her last two runs in weaker maiden company. She could do well. TICKLE ME PINK is a first timer from a stable who knows how to get them ready. JET BABE looks the best of the rest.

SELECTION: 1st:- CRIMSON GLOW * (12); 2nd:- TAMORA (9); 3rd:- GO GET IT (10)
