THOROUGHBREDS

Hawkesbury: Race 3; #9 Gentileschi 

GENTILESCHI has had 2 impressive runs this prep for 2 wins, but has to take another step up here today into a stronger race again. From what we have seen so far from her, she looks talented, but its a tough race and I can't get her as short as the current market has her so I am willing to take her on around that even money mark that she currently is at. If she wins it wouldn't surprise, but being asked to play at a very short price in an open race.

Caulfield: Race 3; #13 Rampant Lion 

Rampant Lion has both peak and average ratings that are below this bunch, doubling that up with the fact that he will likely go back from the wide barrier, I can't have him single figures in this market.

Eagle Farm: Race 6; #3 Embassy 

Comes through some strong form races and has trialled well leading into this however I think he is likely to be better suited stepping up in distance. The stable and jockey combo should keep him nice and short in this market. 

Morphettville: Race 5; #1 Sir Kingsford 

Sir Kingsford looks the likely front runner here. Won the lead up race by 4L but that was on the Parks Circuit. Not sure he will get as easy lead here and meets lots of key rivals worse at the weights.
