Place
F: 3B(5)W(57.0)
( J-Daniel Stackhouse )

Won
F:B(9)W(57.0)
( J-Ben Melham )
( T-Clinton McDonald )
On debut following some solid jumpouts. Opening odds have drifted but it only needs luck from the draw.
Next Best
Cash Converter
F:B(4)W(59.0)
( J-Paul Gatt )
( T-Kane Harris )
A jumpout winner at Caulfield and there is worse form than that. Not bred to be brilliant but good enough to win.
Consider
Miss Marceau
F: 6XB(1)W(57.0)
( J-Jye McNeil )
( T-Clayton Douglas )
Fair on debut before spelling. It could return a much better type and the each-way odds appeal.
Longer Odds
Hot Pursuit
F: 553XB(3)W(57.0)
( J-Thomas Stockdale )
( T-Thomas Nikolic )
It showed enough last prep to warrant attention at this level. Right in the mix.

Won
F: X110XB(7)W(59.0)
( J-Damian Lane )
( T-Danny O'Brien )

Place
F: 724X7B(4)W(59.0)
( J-Carleen Hefel )
( T-Griffiths/de Kock )

Next Best
Takashima
F: 1XB(5)W(59.0)
( J-Daniel Stackhouse )
( T-B, W & JD Hayes )
Plenty to like about its debut win. Spelled since and it could come back much stronger. Watch late betting moves.
Consider
Manhattan Thunder
Dividend : $1.60
Place
F: 4X184B(2)W(61.0)
( J-Jye McNeil )
( T-John Sadler )
Its fresh up win at The Valley is a good form guide. Only fair since but it should enjoy racing at Pakenham.
Longer Odds
Parachuter
F: 21778B(6)W(59.0)
( J-Craig Williams )
( T-Trent Edmonds )
The fit runner and having Williams riding helps. Could sneak under the radar.

Illative
Dividend : $1.70, $1.00
Won
F: 9X42B(9)W(56.0)
( J-Damian Lane )
( T-Price/Kent (Jnr) )
Should have won last start when sprinting late to lose by a nose. Ready to win and it looks to have more class.
Main Danger
A Book Of Days
Dividend : $1.40
Place
F:B(4)W(58.0)
( J-Jye McNeil )
( T-B, W & JD Hayes )
Second at the trials and it has been rock-solid in betting markets. That's a good sign from this stable.
Next Best
Attain
Dividend : $1.40
Place
F: 62420B(6)W(58.0)
( J-Craig Williams )
( T-Robbie Laing )
Second at Pakenham two back. Only fair last time out but it had no luck, but punters should expect a bounce back.
Consider
Stylish
F: 52XB(8)W(56.0)
( J-Daniel Stackhouse )
( T-Michael Moroney )
Second before spelling and it could come back a stronger type. Watch for it finishing strongly at odds.
Longer Odds
I Am Victorious
F: 8B(7)W(58.0)
( J-Ethan Brown )
( T-Doug Harrison )
Didn't live up to its name, but that could change here. Chance with a back to follow in the run.

Top Pick
Thoughtful Woman
Dividend :
Place
F: 72325B(5)W(58.0)
( J-Craig Williams )
( T-Robbie Laing )
It looks set to break through soon after a series of solid efforts. Well-backed throughout the week, which is a good sign.
Main Danger
Finale
F: 32X27B(6)W(57.5)
( J-Damian Lane )
( T-Cliff Brown )
Three placings from five starts, which is good enough form. It's another runner that won't take long to exit maidens.
Next Best
Grey Ice
Dividend : $3.70, $1.90
Won
F: X2X43B(4)W(57.5)
( J-Ethan Brown )
( T-Bevan Laming )
Adds to the depth of this field. Getting close and running third at Sandown is a good form guide. In the mix.
Consider
Elegancia
Dividend : $4.40
Place
F: 23B(1)W(57.5)
( J-Blaike McDougall )
( T-Liam Howley )
It gets the inside draw after two placings and there's nothing wrong with its form. Adds to an already tough race.
Longer Odds
Kowhai
F: 4X9X9B(3)W(57.5)
( J-Laura Lafferty )
( T-Michael Moroney )
Better than what it has been showing and it could reel them in.

Top Pick
Starton
Dividend : $1.60
Place
F: 493B(7)W(59.0)
( J-Jamie Mott )
( T-Jerome Hunter )
Not a strong maiden field, so it gets every chance to get off the mark. Likely to be well-backed late.
Main Danger
Extreme Virtue
Dividend : $2.80, $1.50
Won
F: 8B(11)W(57.0)
( J-Craig Williams )
( T-B, W & JD Hayes )
Only fair on debut but improvement is expected here. Williams rides and it just needs luck from the wide barrier.
Next Best
Uptown Boy
F: 946X6B(9)W(59.5)
( J-Winona Costin )
( T-Waterhouse/Bott )
Likely to push forward from out wide and that could be the winning of the race. Bred to be right in the mix.
Consider
Winged
F: 5B(3)W(59.0)
( J-Ethan Brown )
( T-Ciaron Maher )
Had some things to learn on debut but it was a solid effort. We expect the odds to firm solidly throughout the night.

Place
F: 427X1B(4)W(58.5)
( J-Damian Lane )
( T-Thomas Sadler )
LIked the way it won fresh up and it could kick on with it now. Drawn well and the odds are shortening.
Main Danger
Amarysso
F: 31B(8)W(58.5)
( J-Michael Dee )
( T-B, W & JD Hayes )
Another last start winner that could have a bright future. Its win came on the track, which is an added bonus.

Miss Santorini
Dividend : $1.70
Place
F: 22123B(1)W(62.5)
( J-Ben Allen )
( T-Barry Goodwin )
All around the mark this season with a win and five placings. Big weight but it gets the inside draw to its advantage.
Consider
Lightning Flash
Dividend : $8.50, $2.50
Won
F: X2734B(5)W(59.5)
( J-Ben Melham )
( T-Matt Laurie )
Not far behind them at The Valley last time out. Hitting the line well and it could flash over the top.
Longer Odds
Impending Diamond
F: X6646B(3)W(58.5)
( J-Jamie Mott )
( T-John McArdle )
Fitter now and it's another runner that doesn't need to improve much to win.

Top Pick
Best "Each Way"
The Creator
F: 8320XB(12)W(60.0)
( J-Ethan Brown )
( T-Price/Kent (Jnr) )
It would be shorter in the market had it drawn a barrier. Talented at best and class could take it close.
Main Danger
Russian Meteor
F: 1172XB(10)W(61.5)
( J-Thomas Stockdale )
( T-Bill Papazaharoudakis )
Started its career with consecutive wins, so it could hit the ground running. Another runner that just needs luck from out wide.
Next Best
Gwan So
Dividend : $2.60
Place
F: 09X45B(5)W(62.5)
( J-Jaylah Kennedy )
( T-Annabel Neasham )
Better for two runs back from a spell at Sandown. 3kg comes off its back to help with the weight.
Consider
Metrical
F: 53X41B(2)W(60.0)
( J-Jamie Mott )
( T-Michael Moroney )
A good winner at Ballarat last start, and it has every chance of kicking on with it. Drawing well could make the difference.
Longer Odds
Lidder Valley
F: 22134B(1)W(60.0)
( J-Luke Cartwright )
( T-David Brideoake & Matt Jenkins )
It never runs a bad race and it gets weight off its back.
