THOROUGHBREDS
Rosehill: Race 10; #1 Battleton
Have this marked as a really open race and given the current market I'm looking to risk BATTLETON here in this set up. He does drop down in grade, but his race map with a big weight could lead him into some troubles in the run and may see him needing luck late for the run to appear. Others in the race do meet him better at the weights and map to be much closer to the speed from their low barriers which looks to give them the advantage.
Eagle Farm: Race 6; #2 Transatlantic
Yet to win when first up or over the 1200m distance, happy to risk him here against race fit horses better suited over this distance. Expect he will run well and put the writing on the wall for a step up in trip next start.
Eagle Farm: Race 8; #9 Ocean Zar
Has excellent form at the track and distance and is 2/2 when second up. However, 61 days between runs concerns me even with a tick over trial and the form from the race contested first up is not overly strong.
GREYHOUNDS
Wentworth Park: Race 7; #1 Peacock
Good masters race and I'm leaning to 3 and 7 as the class runners. 1 looks too short and although very good at Nowra, this is much, much harder. Risking.
Wentworth Park: Race 9; #4 Zipping Chaplain
4 is the best dog in the race and looks well graded BUT he will be back in the pack and require luck in the run. Looks short enough and happy to be against.
HARNESS
Albion Park: Race 2; #2 Rockpenny
Rocknpenny is 0/26 at Albion Park and 1/18 at the middle trip. Happy to be against tonight.
