The best from around Australia

Best bet: (Race 1) 8. River Noire

Resumes off three jumpouts. First up win last preparation was dominant. Only straight run second to She Dances.

Clint Hutchison – Flemington

Best bet: (Race 9) 3. Berkeley Square

Quality galloper and this race sets up nicely for him.

Tony Kneebone – Flemington

Best bet: (Race 4) 5. Fearnought

Brent Zerafa – Flemington

Best bet: (Race 8) 3. Brayden Star

Terry McAuliffe – Murray Bridge

Best bet: (Race 1) 2. Alpine Flyer

Hoping Alpine Flyer canprovide Michael Hickmott with the perfect start to his day in the opener. Hickmott has lured Will Price home for a number of rides for his stable on Saturday, and this mare looks one of the better chances for the combination to lob into the winner’s stall. The lightly raced mare is a winner of three of her 10 starts, but has only been in Hickmott’s care for her past two outings. She resumes on the back of a quiet trial here on her home track in what appears a very thin race.

Blair Gibson – Gold Coast

Best bet: (Race 1) 2. Clover's Prince

Leading jockey, leading trainers and has upside. 

Dean Watling – Rosehill

Best bet: (Race 8) 11. I Am Me

Electric trials, ideal map and an abundance of uspide. Excited to see her back.

Chris Camilleri – Rosehill

Best bet: (Race 9) 11. Fawkner Park

Looking to make it five wins from five starts in Australia. The 1800m suits and gets a vital claim. 

Chris Camilleri – Kembla Grange

Best bet: (Race 7) 2. Nanshe

Lightly raced mare coming off a dominant second up win. Strips fitter now and gets a soft run from a good draw

Rylie Morgan – Belmont

Best bet: (Race 2) 1. Swim Through

A 1000m horse who carries weight. Has generally raced in higher company and should get a gun run.
