THOROUGHBREDS
Rosehill: Race 5; #11 Spirit Of Wealth
She has big upside but has been found on her potential. She won a maiden in provincial grade and got the job done in midweek company, both impressively. She comes up to G2 set weights company and just looks well found when compared to the likes of COLEMAN who's twice G1 placed. She might win, but looks poison odds to me.
Rosehill: Race 10; #10 Pharari
PHARARI missed the kick in her last start run and that made for a hell of a time for her in the run. She is very talented but if she is to be slow away from barrier 1, she could find herself in an even more tricky place in the run and that could make it tough for her if so. If she can get away clean she has the talent to win the race, but at a current price below even money I am happy to risk her.
Eagle Farm: Race 7; #12 Catwalk Criminal
Racing consistently this prep and I think will run well again however I am against the big weight rise from last start, going from 52kg to 58kg in what looks a strong class 4 race.
Kembla Grange: Race 1; #5 Vieri
Happy to be against VIERI in this maiden race over the 1500m. VIERI is from the Michael Freedman yard having it's 3rd start this prep. VIERI's last start was 7 days ago at Newcastle over the 1500m. In this race at Newcastle, the gelding jumped well and settled outside the leader. On how slow the leaders travelled in this race I thought it had every opportunity to break its maiden with this tempo before getting run down by ALICE MAY.
At Kembla Grange, it faces a much harder race with some horses looked prime to produce a peak figure.
