THOROUGHBREDS

Warwick Farm: Race 8; #2 Inquiring Minds Down Arrow

Thought INQUIRING MINDS has come up short enough in this market. The race looks more open than where he currently sits in it in my opinion. He only just won a similar race at this track in his last start and will now rise in weight and will need to do that on a heavy track which is the query

Balaklava: Race 7; #6 Dingabledinga Down Arrow

Punchin looked all over a winner last start but couldn't reel in Dingabledinga who took advantage of the leader and rail bias. Meets that horse 2kg better at the weights. Very confident he will turn the tables here. Leader's Pride is another coming from that race that just couldn't get into things due to track bias. He draws to settle closer here and is very well suited with the 1.5kg claim for stable apprentice Maggie Collett. Races well here. Wannaschmack was OK at Strathalbyn over the 1600m last time out. Best work was through the post late. Back out to the 2000m might suit. Dingabledinga led and just narrowly held on last start when he got bias conditions to suit. Meets key rivals worse off at the weights. Sure to be thereabouts but think others might have his measure today.

GREYHOUNDS

The Meadows: Race 1; #2 Hurdling Harold Down Arrow

Hurdling Harold was very well backed throughout the day before it drifted late on the Exchange just before the jump. But, I saw no evidence of why it should have been backed and he performed poorly and the inside draw looks to be a negative as he looked to want the outside in last week's race.

The Meadows: Race 7; #1 Raya Star Down Arrow

Raya Star is having her first go over anything further than 525m so she is a distance query here. I'm not convinced Box 1 suits her either as she tends to drift to the middle of the track when she shows her best and she may not be able to obtain that pattern here.
