THOROUGHBREDS

Warwick Farm: Race 3; #3 Time Quest Down Arrow

Very even race. Feel the advantage in the market is to take on TIME QUEST at his current price. He is coming into this race off a let up and straight up to the 1600m. That gives others a race fitness advantage here and potentially if he is shuffled back from barrier 2, he may find the run tough late.

Ipswich: Race 4; #3 Majestic Boom Down Arrow

Undefeated galloper who I think goes good however I am against the set up here with a 46 day break between runs and dropping back to 1100m from 1400m. At the price he is easy to risk considering this set up.

GREYHOUNDS

The Meadows: Race 2; #8 Jenny Bale Down Arrow

Jenny Bale has had plenty of chances in recent weeks and been costly. She may have to work hard to cross from the outside and some of these opponents have some upside. Enough to warrant a Lay bet.

The Meadows: Race 6; #8 Winking Willie Down Arrow

This is a very deep race. Daintree Dazzler should get a very economical run and forward pattern from the inside draw and Whodat Shanlyn could be the one roaring home late. So where does this leave Winking Willie? Box 8 doesn't look great and I just can't see him being able to get a crack at them from out wide.

HARNESS

Swan Hill: Race 8; #5 Monsieur Flamel Down Arrow

Winner of last 2 runs in easier grade than this. Has some speed but has a few tricks & I'm not sure the longer trip is ideal. Looks a risk.
