Race 9: SCHISM
Race 6:
Good betting race with some improving types engaged. REVOLVING DOOR gets in very well with the claim. If he has even luck rolling forward he will give them something to chase. ENIGMAN still has good upside and wasn’t far away in a similar race last start. He’ll be hard to beat. MY PAISANN will steam home again but will give away a start from the gate. NIKITAS can bounce from the good gate and NOTIO goes in exotics.
Race 7:
SUPIDO wasn’t beaten far first-up last preparation in the Lightning against some of our very best sprinters. A perfect run midfield or better will see him super tough to beat in this. LORD OF THE SKY has trialled up in good style off the long spell. Well in at WFA, he’ll be hard to catch. MURT THE FLIRT is so good fresh he must be included and big betting watch CHOCOLATE HOLIC at his first run for the Weir stable.
Race 8:
GREY STREET looks to get all the favours here from the good gate. She’s super fit, gets in light with the claim and falls straight into the box seat. She’ll be hard to hold out. SULLIVAN BAY will give them something to chase again if they let her control the front. Watch for BEATNIKS charging home. The Dale stable only bring them down if their ready to win. SAHARA CHILL comes off a nice jump out. She just needs some luck from the gate.
Race 9:
SCHISM is airborne at present and must have done well through the week to be backing up. A soft run just off pace will have her tough to beat again. KENJORWOOD draws a gate to do no work early. If he holds his spot he’ll run it out strong. AIRALIGN gets a soft run with no weight. He’ll be right there again. ONEROUS gets his chance from the good gate and LEICA DAY could be the knockout.

Race 6: SIR PLUSH
Race 7: SHIRAZ
Race 8: GOLD AMBITION
Race 9: FLOW
Race 6:
SIR PLUSH impressive winner resuming here two runs back before finishing runner-up last start. A drying track a plus and the one to beat. TOP STRIKER wasn’t far from the winner at Rosehill resuming after covering ground in the run. Twice a winner second-up and right in this likely to settle first three in running. SUSPENSE Resumes and has had the benefit of two trials. Has a solid first-up record and looks ready to go fresh here. REINCARNATE wasn’t far from the winner at Rosehill resuming and nothing went right last start. 42-days between runs but runner-up in a Warwick Farm trial in the interim. Capable of improving sharply.
Race 7:
BURNING PASSION has won five of last eight starts and chasing the hat-trick after successive victories at Eagle Farm and Doomben. Nothing to suggest he won’t be in the finish again. SHIRAZ hasn’t been far from the winner in three starts this time in. Getting down in the weights and goes in all the exotics. GOLD SYMPHONY close up in the Stradbroke two runs back and too good here last start. The 3kg weight rise and where he gets to in the run form the gate genuine queries. EXTENSIBLE hasn’t been far from the winner last three and goes in all the exotics here with a soft run from the gate.
Race 8:
ESTIKHRAAJ two wins two seconds from last five starts. Will go back from the gate but look suited by the anticipated strong tempo up front and will be getting home hard. ZOURKHAN Flemington winner resuming before going down narrowly last start at the same track. Ready to peak third-up and right in the mix. LIFE O’BRIEN is chasing the hat trick after successive wins at Canterbury. This looks a touch harder but gets the gun run from the gate and in the mix again. SPRINGBOK FLYER hasn’t been far from the winner all three runs this preparation and ready to do something although would prefer over a touch further.
Race 9:
RENEGED Canterbury winner two runs back and fought on strongly when a close third here last start. Gets a nice run from the gate and expected to be right in the finish again. IT’S SO OBVIOUS runner-up both runs in her first preparation and returned to racing with an easy win at Beaumont. Up in grade but plenty of scope for improvement and authority in the last win. FLOW Easy Kembla winner two runs back before placing in the Sunshine Coast Guineas last start. Will be right on the speed and expected to be right in the finish again. ZAUNKONIG resumes and has had the benefit of two trials. Beaumont winner resuming last time in and goes in everything fresh from a good gate here.

Race 7:
BACK (WIN) My Diamantine
Sportsbet – Richard Hummerston:
Race 8: Jadentom
Race 6:
STELLA OMBRA was a beaten favourite at Rockhampton but his previous form including a Sydney win was strong, he should be hard to hold off. TANSY has been improved by recent racing, he placed at his only start at this track and should be running on. BARNSLEY was held up and just missed here last Sunday, he likes this track and will be hard to hold off. BEAT STREET resumed well and likes this track, the claim helps and he should be prominent throughout.
Race 7:
RICHARD OF YORKE just missed over this trip in NSW two starts back, he is dour and should be prominent throughout. MY DIAMANTINE hasn’t won since arriving in Australia from NZ over a year ago but her recent form sound and she ran 4th in this last year, she can be in the finish. PARAGON battled on well in the Caloundra Cup, he won his only start at this trip and should be prominent. ARALDO JUNIOR won over 2800m in Germany before arrival, he could go forward and be hard to run down.
Race 8:
GINGERSNAP was unwanted in betting at Gold Coast but ran on well, she is better suited here and should be running on. SUNDANCE has been improved by recent racing and the claim will help, he should be hard to run down. OINK has been freshened, he will find this easier than recent outings and should be closing late. PUBLISHING POWER ran on when resuming at Ipswich and is better suited by this track and distance, he should be improved and can be prominent.
Race 9:
TAP THIS ran on well last week at Doomben, she is better suited here and should be hard to hold off. RAGAZZO DEL CORSA ran on from well back last start, he will find this easier and could be closing late for Damian Browne. EXPAT ENVY fought on well here last start from a wide gate, he is better drawn here and should be prominent. NATURAL BLACK was held up and tightened when favourite here in similar company last start, he can make amends.
