Race 2 summary - Tricky little affair but hard not to follow MAJOR SHARPE who has been racing in super form this time in. LORD DENMAN was dominant here last start and no reason cannot make it two straight whilst RHOMLO could be the surprise packet first-up from spell. CRUSADER GENERAL can figure if finds best form.

Race 3 summary - Betting is going to give best guide to chances for the unraced. Would expect UNDAOAF to work across and lead these and he will strip fitter second-up. Liked the way O' SO HAZY got home on debut and sure to be better from her race experience. Of the unraced keep close eye on TIFFONI who has not been seen at the trials for a while whilst SUNEEZE has shown enough to be included in chances.
Race 3 tips - 1st: UNDAOAF (4), 2nd: O' SO HAZY (5), 3rd: TIFFONI (8), 4th: SUNEEZE (7).

Race 4 summary - THE AROD comes into this off two solid placings this track and distance and he deserves a win. LET IT ROLL has been racing consistently and comes back from city run whilst CHILCOTIN was impressive in maiden two back and if finds that form can figure. Don't leave PASTICHE out of place chances.
Race 4 tips - 1st: THE AROD (2), 2nd: LET IT ROLL (13), 3rd: CHILCOTIN (3), 4th: PASTICHE (6).

Race 6 summary - OUR FINVARRA was impressive winning this track and distance three back and last start was city placing which looks good enough for this. SARONA DOWNS has the speed to lead and now he has broken through can go on with it whilst UNYIELDING is back in easiest race he has seen for a while. TURBO BUNDY won second-up last time in work so may surprise.
