Scott Embry’s Preview

Race 1

OLIVER’S TRAVELS simply looks a class above rivals and a nice acquisition for the Miller stable. OREGON BRONZE should improve with blinkers on. CONICAL PEAK has ability, just needs to put it all together. TOW ROPE will get back and run on.

Numbers: 1 – 4 – 8 – 3

Suggested Bet – OLIVER’S TRAVELS WIN

Race 2

PERFECT JEWEL has trialed well on two occasions. Regally bred and related to some extraordinarily talented individuals. Unbackable price but exciting proposition. MELROS BEACH should stalk the speed from the inside gate. ARRUM BOY has always promised a lot, returns fresh without a trial. INVISIBLE PRO hails from WA’s premier juvenile stable.

Numbers: 9 – 7 – 1 – 2

Suggested Bet – PERFECT JEWEL WIN

Race 3

PEARL TRADE should work into the three wide line midrace and prove very hard to hold out. ASCOT GOLD gets a weight swing on Pearl Trade, a maiden win isn’t far away. INFINITE BEAUTY could hug the fence and run a cheeky race. FINE SCENT was never in the race on debut, sharp improver.

Numbers: 1 – 2 – 10 – 12

Suggested Bet – PEARL TRADE WIN

Race 4

CAPE LADY returned below her best and there is still a question mark on whether she has retuned the same horse but on raw ability goes very close. DIA DE LA RAZA is again perfectly placed and drawn to race on speed. AKIKO should get a gun run midfield. JUPITER RISING ran well in Saturday grade, this is easier.

Numbers: 10 – 1 – 9 – 8

Suggested Bet – CAPE LADY WIN

Race 5

YOU WATCHING ME does not win out of turn and his overall winning strike rate is heinous, however, this race lacks depth and he could break through. SEALED WITH A KISS trialed well for his new stable, keep an eye on the market. SOVEREIGN HALL is a hard horse to catch, blinkers should help. TOMOHAWK is suited over further but is a consistent type.

Numbers: 7 – 5 – 6 – 1

Suggested Bet – YOU WATCHING ME EACHWAY

SuperPick - Race 5 No. 7 YOU WATCHING ME - Profit Plus – 25% (Place)

Race 6

NEW TIME is rising 10 years old but expect Maddison Brown to release the handbrake and let the old boy run. He’ll prove hard to catch. CASH ON CALL is a talented type on the rise, he’ll be charging late. ANOTHER VISION ran an eye catcher first-up and is drawn soft. HALLDORA should position up prominently.

Numbers: 1 – 8 – 3 – 6

Suggested Bet – NEW TIME EACHWAY

Race 7

GINGER NINJA should get the run of the race from a gun gate in a very evenly graded race. BELVEDERE BOY is racing better than numerical form suggests and Staeck on is a big plus. SAXAPAK looks as though he will get a soft lead. LE SCHILLER relishes soft going, drawn awkwardly he may have to roll forwards at some stage.

Numbers: 3 – 8 – 6 – 5

Suggested Bet – GINGER NINJA EACHWAY

Race 8

OORAH has come back nicely this preparation for his new stable. This race is very thin and he gets his chance. SOMETHING BIG should box seat from the inside and go close. MIDNIGHT DRAMA ran a bottler in the Oaks. Up sharply in weight and drawn awkwardly. RUN FOR A REASON is looking for this trip.

Numbers: 10 – 7 – 1 – 6

Suggested Bet – OORAH EACHWAY
