R1: Looks a 2 horse race; I prefer the raced runner Scoop from the first timer Chimichuri Run

R2: Could be more open than it looks at first glance; Huddle ran well first time out but the winner was at any price, so the form of that run may be questionable; neither Three Stars nor Che Bella is finding the support to indicate confidence; so maybe it's worth including Liquid Gold from a fair draw in the BP together with the fancied runners

R3: Very weak field; Petite Aime has some of these held on the run behind Kitty Coo, so could be worth including with Kitty Pride (who did run just more than 3 lengths behind Rockin Russian); Pokemon Shuffle and Go Thuli Go also not to be ignored

R4: Carbon Atom all the rage; I think Cyber Special could make him run

R5: Another 2 horse contest; on form Long Pond is preferred, but Return Flight obviously alive; Favorite Model clear 3rd choice

R6: Progress Plate, where a lot will depend on the race readiness of Warrior's Rest - less than a length behind Eyes Wide Open - but he has a widish draw and the betting suggests he might need this; most of the others seem closely matched; Ghost Town imo the wrong price - way out at the weights and the way he runs may not be suited to this track; Glider Pilot has the class but comes off a break and prefers further, so at the price Shukamisa looks good each-way value

R7: Exquisite Touch looks hard to beat and only the track could pose a problem; Wrecking Ball is a winner here and should provide the main competition; Queen Laurie and Movie Show could make the trifecta and quartet pay a bit

R8: Very open; Star Profile tries the blinkers and imo a worthy inclusion, but Visuality, Regal Graduation and Schippers are probably safer for a bet like the PA; I'm taking the field in my small P6

R9: Dressed to Impressed the obvious one, but imo runs like she needs more ground and is beatable; Paree the main danger over a trip that has provided her with 3 of her victories; best roughie imo is Leopard Lily who has tumbled down the ratings and Vanilla Orchid could hang on from pole position for the trifecta / quartet

Enjoy
