The weather looks fine, and the track will play in the good 4 range.

Race 8 – Lawn Rules Handicap – Benchmark 78 Handicap. 3YO+. $130k.

#1 PHILOSOPHER

Just can’t see a world where they get past this boy.

Should go straight to the front and be to fit to catch.

Race 3 – Entry Education Handicap – Benchmark 70 Handicap. 3YO+. Fillies and Mares. $130k.

#9 VERY SEWREEL

Good luck catching this filly.

Ready for the step in distance now and should be bursting with fitness.

Predicting her to run them into the ground.

#6 FUZZ BUZZ is not the worst roughie. Include in multiples.

Race 7 – Chandler Macleod Handicap – Benchmark 70 Handicap. $130k.

#1 BLUE CUP & #4 KAILASH

Both extremely over the odds IMO.

Race 2 – Ascend Sales Trophies Challenger – Benchmark 70 Handicap. $80k.

#4 CEERSEVEN

Stable is absolutely flying.

This gelding should have plenty of upside after a nice first up run.

Improvement to come from that and should be ready to pop.

Map is against but believe he is good enough for this crop.

Race 4 – Simpson Construction Handicap – Benchmark 84 Handicap. $130k.

#8 TYPHOON HARMONY

Now, the favourite #2 RUNNING BY will be EXTREMELY hard to beat.

BUT… If for what ever reason she is off her game we think #8 TYPHOON HARMONY can run a race.

Will be nibbling a small each way.

Race 5 – Happy 50th Jeff Waters Handicap -Benchmark 70 Handicap. 3YO+. Fillies and Mares. $80k.

#6 APRES LA MER

Just the tinniest little each way bet.

Getting on a bit now and very well could be well past her best.

But just thought if should could recapture some of her past ratings that she could be competitive enough at a big price.

Race 6 – Ranvet Travis Harrison Cup – Benchmark 100 Handicap. 3YO+. $150k.

Taking a different look here.

Small bet here on #2 DON’T DOUBT DORY
