Track – Currently Rated Good 3 Rail – Out 6m Entire Circuit Race 1: Twilight Races – 15th December Handicap 1250m Tan Tat Flame comes here in good form coming out of some nice races, steps up to the 1250m which must be some query, Kah on a massive positive. Dexter you Devil is flying and is proven at the distance, I think its last start win was only in an average race, must step up here again but...

Race 1: Sam Miranda Mares BM78 Handicap 1200m Brugal Reward (1st) was caught a touch wide the entire trip, let down well in the straight and was too strong late. Royal Fashion (2nd) had a nice run just off the speed, showed a nice turn of foot, winner was too strong. Soho Ruby (3rd) ran on well, nice return. Race 2: Isuzu Ballarat BM70 Handicap 1100m Via Balciano (1st) settled back towards the...

Race 1: Golden Gift 1100m Secret Lady (1st) worked across to the lead, gave a kick and has held them off late, looks a decent type. Plague Stone (2nd) was heavily backed, not much went right in the run but still had his chance, disappointing. Orcein (3rd) hit the line well late. Race 2: The HQ of Insurance Handicap 1400m Bull Market (1st) settled a touch worse than midfield, kept grinding to the...

Race 1: Advanced Transport Refrigeration & Air Conditioning HCP 1400m Phelps Glory (1st) got control up front and held on to win, showed some fight. Shrouded in Mist (2nd) had its chance on speed. The other two were in a bumping duel for most of the straight, bunched finish, looks an average form race. Race 2: Doug & Pat Brown 65 Yr Anniversary 3YO Maiden Plate 1000m Rushwa (1st) came across from...

Track – Currently Rated Good 3 Rail – Out 6m Entire Circuit Race 1: Advanced Transport Refrigeration & Air Conditioning Handicap 1400m Deplorable did a good job three weeks back behind the smart Lady of Crebilly, suited here. Don’t think Phelps Glory is going overly well, looks under the odds. Ardizzone won well on debut on a heavy track, step up here but could be up to it. Very tricky race,...

Race 1: Trader 2YO Plate 1050m Manzala (1st) sat back at the rear and has rounded them all up in the straight, nice debut. Raahee (2nd) led and gave a good kick, should be winning a maiden in the near future. No excuses for the rest of them. Race 2: Wolf Blass Wines Handicap 2500m On pace dominated with Instrumentalist (1st) holding out Tunes (2nd), both have no upside but can keep running well...

Race 1: ATC Owners Benefit Card Handicap 1200m On pace dominated. Pretty Fast (1st) sat outside the leader and was too strong late, going well. Easy Eddie (2nd) led and kicked, has gone well enough. Heliosphere (3rd) had gone very well, didn’t have the tempo to suit and has ran on strongly, looks in for a good prep. Race 2: Chandons Handicap 1400m Sedanzer (1st) had a nice run midfield and kept...

Race 1: Thoroughbred Club Merson Copper Stakes 1000m Long Leaf (1st) sat on the speed, kicked, and looked to almost be headed but really dug in well late to score, looks like a real line chaser. Oohood (2nd) loomed but the winner was just too strong, nice debut. Sanglier (3rd) led and has ran well enough. Race 2: Twilight Glow Stakes 1400m Yulong Xingsheng (1st) had a nice run midfield three wide...

Track – Currently Rated Good 4 Rail – +12m 1200m to WP, +9m Remainder Race 1: Trader 2YO Plate 1050m Every runner here is on debut, don’t like getting involved in these races, will watch and learn. Race 2: Wolf Blass Wines Handicap 2500m Instrumentalist comes here from Victoria, has been contesting country cups, finds a race without much depth, hard to line up. Duquessa is flying, should be...

Race 1: The Carbine Club Stakes 1600m Levendi (1st) had a nice run midfield, when a gap appeared in the straight showed a nice turn of foot to put them away, looks progressive. Sambro (2nd) showed a nice turn of foot to hit the lead, the winner just too strong late. Irish Vega (3rd) and Beau Geste (4th) ran on well from the rear. Snitzepeg (5th) was struggling a long way out but kept attacking...
