WESMEDAD (7) needs a touch of luck from the draw but can be put into the race when needed and will run well. ADDA LOMBO (8) drops in grade and can improve in this. MICKEY BE SWIFT (1) lacks a bit of dash early, novelty chance with NINETY MILE BEACH (3) and WORLD COMBINATION (9). Tips: 6 7 8 3 Suggested Bet: JUST A PET/WESMEDAD to Quinella. Race 2 SPEED FORCE (3) and LIQUIDATOR (4) will both be coming out hard with the latter suited greatly at the distance, winning chance if she finds the top.

Race 4 Competitive race here. KOPPER KOTE (9) is racing well and can be put into the race when needed and looks hard to hold out on what we’ve seen from him this prep.

REDDY TO FLY (4) is racing well and shouldn’t be too far away. HOT ROD (8) and CHALKY WHITE (7) will run on with even luck. Tips: 9 5 3 4 Suggested Bet: KOPPER KOTE (9) each way. Race 5 LORD TITANIUM (9) drops in grade and is a work horse, can watch things unfold early and be put into it, suited in this.

Race 6 DEE JAYS BIG BOY (2) looks a big chance to work to the top and was playing a big part in the finish last time out before breaking, his run at Northam was full of merit and looks hard to beat.

Race 7 SHESA ENCHANTRESS (4) looks better suited off the front row as she had to make ground wide last time out, looks the potential leader here and can get the job done. LOWLANDS BEACH BOY (1) has a lovely draw and can feature in the money. DEVIL MAN (6) must overcome a wide draw but was a better run last time out. PURELY PANDEMIC (7) caught the eye last time out and likely be three back the pegs and will be running on.
