On racedays there is a Gawler Racetrack station, you wouldn't know it was there any other day, we used it Friday week ago.

Anyway - my thoughts below
R1) I'm respectful of 8 Regina Margherita's form. Starting favourite and drawn to suit from gate 2. Think it runs top 3 no worries and probably wins. 9 Bottle and Bird gives them something to chase but think there's enough fitness to chase it down. 4 Oliver's Tale looms as good each way value, while two horses with ability that have cost me money previously are 5 Sir Johnson and 6 Good Nic. Can't see Sir Johnson reversing its form but will watch Good Nic's fresh run after a disappointing recent prep.
8, 4, 9, 1 - Watching 5 & 6.
RESULT: 8,5,4,9
8 wins @ $2.70
4 third @ $2
Tri: $31.80
F4: $71.40
R2) Not looking too far outside the favourites here. Taking 7 Cover Girl on top having watched her finish up their backs at Balaklava, then stepping up to metro class on Boxing Day and chewing up late ground over 1200m, so thinking 1300m suits and much easier task here. 3 Notarbartolo brings in impressive form behind talented A Thousand Degrees and Scare Campaign but query of the extra 200m. 8 Scopen Success has been consistent and I like first starter 6 Mr Botterill, don't mind Luke Williams as a young jockey. 4 Canidae has been terrible but comes out of same good trial as Oliver's Tale, so watching it.
7, 8, 6, 3 & 11 - Watching 4
RESULT: 6, 7, 3, 11
6 wins @ $12 & $3 plc
7 second @ $1.80
Quin: $27.10
Tri: $195.90
F4: $510
R3) 11 Sizzkye did catch the eye last start. Outside of it, not much appeals. Going to trust some trainers/jockeys here.
11, 3, 1, 4
RESULT: 3, 11, 10, 6
Quin: $5.10
R4) Difficult stayers race with several taking good form in. With that in mind, overthinking jockeys/trainers may mess with the speed, opening the door for a swooper. I didn't mind the efforts of 9 Lady Barron in city class last start against some good horses, Willochra, Pretty Glass, Tahnee Tiara...
For the better chances, 4 Centenary Shot looks my pick. Maund retains the ride and got the choccies last start.
4, 8, 2, 1 & 9 as a roughie.
RESULT: 3,5,8,9
Yuck
R5) I was keen on 7 Strategic Spice but Christine Puls doesn't ride too many winners above $3 so perhaps a place bet is best here. 5 Jackthegiantslayer back from Flemington to Bordertown? Pls. I'll take the $3.20 on offer and see what happens. Don't mind 1,2,3,4 either and thinking 2 Art Music is the best of those.
5, 2, 3, 7 and 4.
RESULT: 5,7,4,9
5 wins @ $3.20
7 second @ $2.60
Tri: $110
Going to bed. Will hopefully be back for the last three tomorrow!
