| Book | Form | Name | Draw | Hcp | Driver | Comment | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 |  | 046 | Riley John | 1 | Ft | Gavin Smith | Found the line with purpose a week ago and with a clean getaway looks very hard. |
| 2 |  | 8060 | Glitterati | 2 | Ft | Sheree Tomlinson | Would need to improve on her 4 career starts to play any sort of role in this. |
| 3 |  | 242338 | Swift Guy | 3 | Ft | Leo O'Reilly | No dash after being held up, 27 June following long streak of minors. Clear hope |
| 4 |  | 576845 | Interrorgator | 4 | Ft | Kimberly Butt | Tidy effort a week ago after having to wait a gap. This looks within his range. |
| 5 |  | 808988 | Wyda Wake | 5 | Ft | Sam Thornley(J) | Failed to quicken from the rear 7 days ago after a slow beginning. Hard to have. |
| 6 |  | 072683 | Pacific Thunder | 6 | Ft | Olivia Thornley(J) | Boosted exotics with late dash up the lane, 3 Aug. Manner good and value again. |
| 7 |  | 054 | Dragonhill | 7 | Ft | Robbie Holmes | Useful from a good trip in transit last Sunday. Consider for thin end of 1st 4s. |

| 1 |  | 26287X | Tipstar | 1 | Ft | Colin DeFilippi | Luckless run ended her first campaign back in Feb. Has trialed and drawn nicely. |
| 2 |  | 2222X | Mariana Trench | 2 | Ft | ||
| 3 |  | 06X | Poison Ivy | 3 | Ft | Olivia Thornley(J) | Little offered in two outings back in Nov, but recent trial indicates readiness. |
| 4 | | X94748 | Captain Joan | 4 | Ft | Wilson House(J) | Stuck gamely 2 back and battled solidly from pegs last week. Great E/W bet today |
| 5 |  | 464 | Kowhai Star | 5 | Ft | Samantha Ottley | Showed speed from the mobile to lead last week then run down. Must consider. |
| 6 |  | 74X83 | Sweet Espresso | 6 | Ft | Robbie Close | Went close in recent Add attempt with support. Draw not a help but in minors mix |
| 7 |  | 238357 | Beautiful Crazy | 7 | Ft | ||
| 8 | | 522264 | Fear Gogh | 8 | Ft | Tim Williams | Another honest shift when 4th 7 days ago. Gate speed can negate wide marble. |

| 12 |  | 98 | Cool Lucy | 12 | Ft | Sam Thornley(J) | Had support for 27 July debut but broke in the rear. OK last week but stretched. |
| 13 |  | 860537 | Daisy Diana | U1 | Ft | Jonny Cox | Got very close 2 starts back and had to work too hard last week. Blow-out chance |

| 3 |  | X49154 | Archer | 3 | Ft | Thomas Borcoskie(J) | Sound from the trail 7 days ago. A few others look sharper here; first 4 fringe |
| 4 |  | 146462 | Whatz My Choice | 4 | Ft | ||
| 5 |  | 036421 | Carlin | 5 | Ft | Sheree Tomlinson | Built nicely to his maiden success last week. Has the manners to kick on; danger |

|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | | 548867 | Wind In The Wire | 1 | Ft | Sam Thornley(J) | A shade disappointing last week after having every chance. Ace again over longer |
| 2 |  | 3800X7 | Carrera Kahu | 2 | Ft | Kyle Cameron | Too too shabby resuming at Add, 27 July. Offers place value in 2nd attempt here. |
| 3 | | 876995 | Shapely | 3 | Ft | Tim Williams | Just fair in Add sprint after 3.8L 9th over 2600m. Best could boost your exotics |
| 4 | | 068400 | The Mandalorian | 4 | Ft | Brent Weaver | Unable to capitalise on a sweet trip last week. Hard to make a case for on that. |
| 5 |  | 097248 | My Ten Guitars | 5 | Ft | Craig Thornley | Forget his 1 Aug Add run. Close-up in 2 attempts prior and can push hard in this |
| 6 | | 27472X | Lorton Vale | 6 | Ft | Wilson House(J) | Ended last campaign with strong 2nd at HQ. No form fresh but watch market moves. |
| 7 |  | 363325 | Ivona Dadic | 7 | Ft | Ricky May | Did as well as she could last week and despite another wide alley today can win. |
| 8 |  | 434333 | Major Happy | 8 | Ft | Bob Butt | Got awfully close with late dash, 25 July. Should be rewarded here despite draw. |
| 9 | | 22200X | Robyns Art | U1 | Ft | Olivia Thornley(J) | Returns to racing after form dropped away in autumn. Should need the run. |

| 9 | | 806462 | Randel Huston P | 9 | Ft | Tim Williams | Mixing his form but tough type and best version would put most of these to bed. |
| 10 |  | 89050X | Moa Mojito | 10 | Ft | Craig Thornley | Broke when challenging in final run of last campaign, 23 Mar. Happy taking notes |
| 11 | | 2140P9 | Diamond Harbour | 11 | Ft | Gerard O'Reilly | Form tapered off towards end of Autumn. Capable of boosting exotics with A-game. |
