Neil Evans
Heavy duty 10 pallets and 3 m rail output.
Race 1
1. Polymer Despite overcoming the external barrier, he is a fledgling four-year-old poised to take second place among runs on more ground and four weeks of running. Finished hard to miss on a soft 7 and bred to thrive in heavy conditions. 4th Cherry Jubilee He has appeared twice in the remaining three runs from a spell and enjoys wet tracks. 5. Lykoswhich drew the fence deeper into its preparation and 7. Miss Bugattiat the same time from a low traction and trained on the track, take the lead of the rest.
How to play: Polymer for the win.
Race 2
1. Zousain the Great Here is a state-based three-year-old who could repay the bookies after missing out on debut as a hot favourite. He’s fitter now, staying for the trip and being around Zousain is even better suited to the heavier ground. He moved away from the fence. 9. Red Chick She is an emerging filly coming back from a dominant trial win for only her third start. Like the best he is training at Gosford and the stable is doing well. 5. Markwell Top Ranking He beat all but the winner in two runs to start his career and made some further progress. Gap with the rest led by the honest mare 8. Oakfield Marswill proceed without public hearings; during 7. Inheritance Takes Over It comes to market after two silent trials and can add value to exotics.
How to play: It’s great that Zousain won.
race 3
2. You wrote A former Victorian mare who continues her maiden outing with New Port Macquarie is steady in a race with plenty of depth and chances. He won comfortably on his debut last year and although he hasn’t been tested in such harsh conditions, he has been bred to enjoy it. It has not been formally tested, but it reportedly works well and is a strong indication that it is stable over multiple gear changes. 1. Da Snoop Dog A Gold Coast-based colt is jumping the fence after coming back three times from a spell. We have fallen heavily two starts down and jockey booking is important. 9. Powerful Melody Having left the top pick in the previous race behind, it will be difficult to catch up with a low draw after a tough first win. 4. Kissavs He is in great form and is replenishing his dominant fourth-place barrier win here three weeks ago. 3. Immortal Storm a real wet chaser who pulled off a hard-fought win after a six-month spell. 7. Sirsa Nuwa He continues after missing the maiden by five lengths at Port nine weeks ago.
How to play:You wrote a note to win.
race 4
3. Microgravity He is well positioned for his third start after reaching the line behind the winner in a handy first race at Quirindi. It is drawn to go out and bred to go further, so naturally it is strong late. 8. Moana Gold In a deeper race at Wyong he was at his best late in third place when he put in a very solid performance in the market. keep safe 11. Wootton PleaseHe qualified in the bottom two places, a shade underweight and comfortable on heavy ground, and was scratched from Gunnedah on Sunday to save for that. Province based 6. Pull It Out Preferring wet tracks, it is capable of filling small money.
How to play: Microgravity for the win.
race 5
8. Moonlight Diva He is a pure wet racer who could attack with a better draw in an open race if he bounces back in three days after a fierce Grade 1 run at Inverell. After being backed from $5 to $3.60 two starts ago, he returned home to win his first maiden at the swamp track. 2. Thank God He’s long overdue for a win with a downgrade. However, his weight increased rapidly and he could not prove himself in such conditions. 1. Damascus Gate It’s been up for a long time but continues to race well. Will is finding it a little easier than his last couple, losing weight following the bet, and four of his seven career victories have been heavyweight successes. space with the rest governed by 3. Deep Drive fifth-up, 9. Plateau Bustledeep into the campaign and 4. King SoleilThey’re coming off a heavy track win in a weaker race, and it’s all three and a top-four finish.
How to play: Moonlight Diva will win.
race 6
2. Dingle Gray She is a progressive, country filly who can continue on her merry way as she rises in class and pick up her third win out of four in her first full prep. They had excuses for two starts at Gosford before returning home to easily win the Grade 1 at Quirindi. This one is more difficult but is undefeated on soft ground and is still on the rise. 3. Andale Andale He is deep in his preparation and has enough talent to make it difficult to make the best choice for five weeks between runs. He’s coming back from a deeper Class 3 Speedway and is already a winner on the heavy track. 4. Patriotic intent He has to overcome a wide contest but is in great form and was coming home dominantly on heavy ground at the Port in Grade 2 just a week ago. space with the rest governed by 8. Win the Jackpotimproving the third row and 7. Phoenix ForceWe continue a silent hearing.
How to play: Dingle Gray will win.
race 7
4. Yes especially He steps into the journey after an impressive first win in the slow pace, coming home as a short-priced favorite from the low pace. The fact that one of its main market rivals was favored in Gunnedah on Sunday further strengthened this situation. keep safe 7. Mane CharacterA state-based mare who was placed third in the class and was bred to handle the ground. 2. Marshal of Rockbarton Four weeks after Super Maiden’s second start with a soft 7, the odds are over. 10. KoritsiTight fit and quickly reloading his first win as favorite on the heavy track is the best of the rest.
How to play: Yes, especially to win.
RACE 8
6. Come on Charm Zousain is another progressive mare who could bring the punters home first on a wet sail. In the final preparations he won twice at both front and back pace and was successful on the run. The weights appear to have been well taken care of after the jockey’s claim. 3. What a Hurry Although belatedly three of his four career wins were achieved on rain-affected ground and a far superior and stronger jockey took over. 9. Flying Shelly A great watch that has just arrived after a heavy track trial. 7. Where’s the Fire a local all-rounder looking for a third successive win on the rain-affected ground. 11. Shouting about itWe came back from a stronger state race and 14. Brazen Brando, Having been narrowly defeated twice in weaker races this preparation period, both of these races are lucky in every respect.
How to play: Come to Glamor to win.
