Selections based on a soft track

5. Brutal Belle has been racing well with two recent second at this track and then at Wagga. She looks suited by the small field here and has the advantage of barrier one to assist her cause. 1. Brannum finished second at Nowra and then this track either side of a spell. His form has slipped in his latest two starts but he can be expected to improve in this line-up. 4. Run Raymond Run was placed on the Acton track at Canberra when resuming from a spell and is capable of going on with the job now, while 3. Delago Serg has finished third in each of his latest three starts including two at this track and is worth including among the chances again.

How to play it: Brutal Belle WIN.

1. Blanc De Noir is a well above average mare that had five starts when in the care of Michael Freedman and was placed in each of them. She resumes here on the back of two trials for new trainer Mitchell Beer and won the latest of them at Kembla Grange. She should be winning this. 5. Glenn’s Legacy ran second on debut at Wagga and resumes here, while 7. Remy’s Bro debuts here after a third in a trial at this track. 3. Quandary is a mare on debut and she finished fifth in a Queanbeyan trial back in April.

1. Captain Nay is a talented galloper with a good record and was a Queanbeyan winner before being spelled. He resumed with a second at Wagga and is set to continue his consistent form in this event. 2. Abstruse ran sixth in the same event Captain Nay contested last time out and warrants some thought. 6. Manwari wasn’t far away at Goulburn at his latest start and should be thereabouts, while 3. Vereeva has finished fourth in two starts since winning here.

How to play it: Captain Nay WIN.

2. Write Your Own has had three starts since joining the new stable and followed a second at Goulburn two starts ago with a fourth at Nowra when last produced. This isn’t overly hard, and he get back into winning form. 1. Geemes is a former Ciaron Maher trained galloper on debut for the new stable here after a Kembla Grange trial and bears close watching. 4. Caravanserai failed at Nowra after a Bathurst win but can lift in this line-up, while 7. Kool Bird has solid place claims.

How to play it: Write Your Own WIN.

1. Dooralong debuted with a fourth at Nowra when beaten just over a length. He’s drawn wide here but only needs to repeat that effort to be hard to hold out here. 5. Lady Yarrow has finished second at the Sapphire Coast and Wagga at her last two starts and looms as the hardest to beat on that form. 6. Ridotta ran a last start third at Nowra and has the talent to get into the money again, while 9. Choceclair resumed with a last placing at Kembla Grange but may find this easier.

How to play it: Dooralong EACH WAY.

7. Alottosay won well at Nowra and this track either side of a spell and wasn’t beaten far when a last start third at the Sapphire Coast. 10. Loch Erin has ability on her day and has the potential to run a bold race. 1. Fourcade has a good record at this track and will find this easier than a last start Canterbury effort. 4. Vella Magic has finished midfield in her most recent two starts at Albury and Gundagai and should get every chance from the inside gate in this.

How to play it: Alottosay WIN.

8. Dupli Kate is a talented mare that won three on end at the end of her last campaign including two in good grade at Wagga. She resumed with a solid finishing third at Warwick Farm and this looks ideal for her. 3. Bon Frankie followed a second on the Acton track at Canberra with a close-up fourth on the course proper there. 4. Epaullo Creed is a bold front runner that can give plenty of cheek, while 1. Marsabit comes into this after a Warwick Farm placing over a middle distance trip.

How to play it: Dupli Kate WIN.

11. Autumn Heir followed a string of fourth placings with a last placed finish at Newcastle when not beaten too far. He ran home well when a last start second at Canberra and looks primed to run well again here. 12. Tantalum also hit the line well when she ran second at Canberra when last produced and only needs to repeat that effort to figure prominently here. 1. Arancione wasn’t beaten too far when a last start fourth at Queanbeyan and has claims based on that run, while 6. It Is To Be was placed in a couple of Goulburn runs before failing to figure at Nowra at his latest start.

How to play it: Autumn Heir WIN.
