6 KATT ENLIM $11.50
7 WITCH HUNT $12.78
3 NORTHEN GUNNA $15.78
2 CHADS CHUCKY $17.53
#1 wanted to go wide quite badly last time here. And from box 1 will have trouble finding the right path. If goes straight at the start, would probably win. But cannot guarantee that at all.
RACE 2
1 DEMONSTROUS $3.79
8 KIRABILLY TONY $5.20
4 WARM IT UP $6.42
3 INDEPENDENT LASS $7.13
2 PADDY CAMBAZ $8.80
6 BRISTLERS PATCH $14.91
5 ROCK LEGEND $22.73
7 GIFTED JAY JAY $42.76
#1 loves the rails here and has been off a little bit later. But you only have to look at early tote to see if trainer likes betting on him.... good indication. #2 Paddy Cambaz wants to get off the track, likely to be finding trouble with #3,5,6. #7 also moves inwards at the start a touch, this gives #8 perfect run into the race. Only trouble is - how much he moves across and whether he can find the good part of the track as out-wide in the wet is no good!

7 FARMOUR LAS VEGAS $9.42
1 LET EM DROP $17.73
5 EL CABALLO $27.02
3 ICE TRUCKER $33.36
I really liked CEE WALLERS run here last time out. #2 FUTURE LOVE has trialled here strongly in 19.10 but race start here faded badly approaching the line and the other dogs are too strong here. But will be jumping and leading. #4 is certainly one to be getting a chance to beat CEE WALLER - it has to be between them two. Expect #6 BRENT BALE to get into the race strongly mid-race with #7 running home strongly.
Great race here!
RACE 6
8 EARLY RETURN $3.86
7 NICO BALE $4.29
3 WHISPERING WIND $6.54
1 ZAMBORA BLUEBOY $8.07
6 MAVERICK TIGER $8.97
2 SIK EM MAX $13.67
5 MISTER MOOMS $39.20
4 JACK SILVER $48.39
This is the hardest heat of them all I believe. You cannot fault #8 Early Return 8 wins in a row here... 6 of those BOD. Nico Bale absolutely flew late race to win the heat in 19.20 from box 1 and will be doing something similar today as #6 Maverick Tiger wasn't the strongest over the concluding stages. #1 HAS to jump here otherwise #2,3 will be crossing and with the room 6,7,8 will get early they will be too good if they are to be unhampered. But I think the trials of #1 are good enough to be better than #6 Maverick Tiger who I wasn't completely satisfied with, maybe was looking for the turn. Still a great time and all, but in these races you have to be 100% ON.
RACE 7
1 EXTRAORDINARY $4.61
8 JET LANE $5.69
6 ONE LAST DANCE $6.32
3 IMA GEISHA GIRL $7.81
2 VAPOUR STORM $9.64
4 BY STARTLIGHT $10.71
7 JIMMYS HOUSE $14.69
5 READY FOR LOVE $18.14
You cannot doubt that READY FOR LOVE has some incredible early speed here, but does tend to fade and against quality opposition will be finding it tough to stay in front for the final 75m. But this does pose the problem for those drawn inside because if READY FOR LOVE does move across to the rails at the start again this will cause some problems for those who have to jump. But once he has moved across at the start, he does straighten up and move right a little bit. Which opens it up for those on the rails to come underneath. Not a huge rail crasher, but enough to cause bother.
This gives 1,6,8 perfect runs....But #7 JIMMYS HOUSE is unpredictable at the start. Can be slow and rail, can begin moderate and move wide. Either way this dog does like weaving through traffic. And if he does move to the rails, this gives #8 an even better cart up into the race
#2 VAPOUR STORM will be shifting right at the start of the race and is a strong runner who does still race well when being knocked, this creates the squeeze for 3,4 with 2 moving out and 5 moving in. The key will be if #3 can jump ahead of box 2,5 then it should be hard to beat. Hard race for first 50m.

5 ZAMBORA ACE $9.60
8 HARRY THE GREAT $18.06
3 CUZIN BOB $27.52
9 CONNEMARA FLAME $63.93
To me #4 is going to be the best favourite to back all day. Its run last week was perfect, hard to fault and should be too good here. Of Course #2 jumps well and will be thereabouts at the start, this gives #1 plenty of room to wind up on the rails. If #7 doesn't jump with 2 at the start, will find trouble from 8,9. As they can move around a bit.
