Race 1 (1,000m)

(6) TANNERON was touched off only by an exciting and more experienced rival on debut over this course and distance. With the benefit of that experience, she should improve to go one better.

(1) SALOON GIRL and (8) STU’S GIRL will also know more about it after their introductory runs and get into the picture.

However, a bigger threat is likely to come from one of the many well-bred newcomers.

(2) BE MERRY, (3) GREENLITEALLTHEWAY, (4) ARTISTE and (5) ELIZABETH GRACE have very attractive pedigrees, so must be respected. Watch the betting.

Race 2 (1,400m)

(3) MOONACRES finished just over a length ahead of (4) ALADDIN’S LAMP over 1,200m recently. But the improving Aladdin’s Lamp should turn the tables on 3kg better terms and the extra 200m.

(8) TOM’S DINER is improving with every race. Worth each-way.

In what is a modest maiden, well-bred newcomer (7) SILVER IDOL need not be special to challenge.

Race 3 (1,200m)

(8) MANEKI NEKO has improved as a gelding to finish close-up in consecutive 1,000m outings. He should remain competitive over this distance.
