It has shown good form at the jumpouts, and it looks ready to go on debut. Always a tough race to weigh up, but it could be well-backed late.
Main Danger
4 Silent Intent
Dividend : $2.35
Place
F:B(1)W(58.0)
( J-Jye Mcneil )
( T-Tony & Calvin Mcevoy )
It comes off a jumpout win at Flemington, and getting the inside draw down the Flemington straight helps. Watch late betting moves.
Next Best
1 Ankaa
F:B(5)W(58.0)
( J-Harry Coffey )
( T-Tony & Calvin Mcevoy )
Another runner coming off a Flemington jumpout win, and they usually start well from this stable. Bred to show early speed, being by Anamoe.
Consider
5 Bella Divina
F:B(2)W(56.0)
( J-Daniel Stackhouse )
( T-Ben, Will & Jd Hayes )
This stable usually gets them firing from the outset, and it wasn't asked for too much at the jumpouts. Nice odds available in a small field.
Longer Odds
6 Maalefushi
Dividend : $3.20
Place
F:B(3)W(56.0)
( J-Luke Currie )
( T-Tony & Calvin Mcevoy )
Second in two trials, including behind Silent Intent. That should be a solid enough form guide.

13 Esmahli
Dividend : $2.15
Place
F: 117x2B(9)W(57.5)
( J-Michael Dee )
( T-Ben, Will & Jd Hayes )
It ran well fresh up for second, and it looked good when winning back-to-back races last preparation. Talented and paying nice odds.
Main Danger
11 Cabriole
F: 113x1B(14)W(57.5)
( J-Mark Zahra )
( T-Anthony & Sam Freedman )
It hit the ground running last time out, and it could power to another win this time around. It shouldn't mind being drawn wide down the straight.
Next Best
12 Charming Nic
F: 25x21B(6)W(57.5)
( J-Harry Coffey )
( T-Tony & Calvin Mcevoy )
Nothing wrong with its two runs this preparation, including a win and a placing. Not an easy field, but it's a tough customer.
Consider
7 Thebelmontgangster
F: 0212xB(2)W(59.0)
( J-Ethan Brown )
( T-Anthony & Sam Freedman )
Not always the easiest runner to follow, but it came good at the end of last season. Two wins and two placings, so that form stands out.
Longer Odds
Best "Roughie"
3 Moby Dick
Dividend : $2.70
Place
F: 04359B(5)W(60.5)
( J-Logan Bates )
( T-Gavin Bedggood )

Top Pick
2 Lepolo
F: 11B(1)W(57.5)
( J-Harry Coffey )
( T-Tony & Calvin Mcevoy )
Two impressive wins to date, and it's a good chance of remaining unbeaten. Could be a smart type in the making, and the inside draw is ideal.
Main Danger
5 Vallice
Dividend : $1.75
Place
F: 1x445B(10)W(57.0)
( J-Mark Zahra )
( T-Ciaron Maher )
Yet to win this prep from three starts, but it has been hitting the line well enough, and there is good betting support throughout the week.
Next Best
10 True Rebel
F: 31B(11)W(57.0)
( J-Billy Egan )
( T-Danny O'brien )
Nothing wrong with its form, including a good win last time out. Heading in the right direction, and it just needs cover from out wide.
Consider
3 Cignetti
Dividend : $2.50
Place
F: 35x12B(4)W(57.0)
( J-Blake Shinn )
( T-Trent Busuttin & Natalie Young )
Nice odds for a runner that owns a win and a placing this preparation. Punters get much better odds now, and it's going under the radar.
Longer Odds
6 Icy You
F: 212B(6)W(57.0)
( J-Craig Newitt )
( T-Trent Busuttin & Natalie Young )
In good hands, and this stable is firing this season. Should run well at double-figure odds.

2 Saintly Dancer
Dividend : $6.00, $2.20
Won
F: 2162B(8)W(56.0)
( J-Ethan Brown )
( T-Ciaron Maher )
Running well, including a second placing last time out, and it could find a half-length to start winning more consistently.
Main Danger
5 Portinari
F: 82434B(11)W(56.0)
( J-Mark Zahra )
( T-Ben, Will & Jd Hayes )
It has been backed and beaten a couple of times this season, but we're giving it another chance. Punters get better odds now.
Next Best
3 Profligate
F: 12x43B(9)W(56.0)
( J-Jordan Childs )
( T-Grahame Begg )
Better for two runs under its belt, and being in its second campaign adds to its appeal. The best-backed runner, so it can't be left out.
Consider
11 Stipulation
F: 421B(4)W(56.0)
( J-John Allen )
( T-Ciaron Maher )
A runner on the rise after scoring well last time out, and it could be the new horse on the scene. Allen riding adds to its appeal over this distance.
Longer Odds
6 La Barrita
F: 14x01B(16)W(56.0)
( J-Damian Lane )
( T-Tony & Calvin Mcevoy )
It owns a good turn-of-foot, and it showed that last time out. Could run past them in the straight.

Top Pick
Best "Each Way"
14 Tennessee Bound
F: 11122B(6)W(55.0)
( J-Jabez Johnstone )
( T-Ciaron Maher )
Enduring a long campaign, but it keeps running well, and it doesn't know how to run a bad race. 55kg on its back is enough to take it close.
Main Danger
7 Gold Coast Belle
F: 11x17B(4)W(56.0)
( J-Mark Zahra )
( T-Danny O'brien )
It disappointed punters last time out, but that followed some impressive wins. Good enough to bounce back, as the odds suggest.
Next Best
10 On Display
F: 099x3B(18)W(55.0)
( J-Damian Lane )
( T-Mick Price & Michael Kent Jnr )
Not always easy to follow, but it showed good form when placing fresh up, and it always only needs a bit of luck to go close.
Consider
16 Mareth
F: 2x282B(5)W(55.0)
( J-Jamie Melham )
( T-Michael Freedman )
Getting close to a win after two placings this campaign, and it has been facing some handy fields. Another well-weighted runner.
Longer Odds
15 Gold Medallist
Dividend : $2.35
Place
F: 12x55B(2)W(55.0)
( J-Luke Nolen )
( T-Peter G Moody & Katherine Coleman )
A speed runner that could be overlooked at the odds. Looks set to run a good race following two fifths.

3 The Next Episode
Dividend : $3.20, $1.40
Won
F: 1211xB(6)W(58.0)
( J-Mark Zahra )
( T-Ciaron Maher )
A seriously good horse that got the better of Natural Fling last season. Could resume with a big effort, so take the shortening odds.
Main Danger
10 Natural Fling
Dividend : $1.30
Place
F: 12x13B(10)W(56.5)
( J-Damian Lane )
( T-Tony & Calvin Mcevoy )
The current favourite, which is no surprise given its recent form, including a Group 1 placing. Likely to settle wide and settle on speed.
Next Best
11 Over Excited
F: 12B(4)W(55.0)
( J-Ethan Brown )
( T-Anthony & Sam Freedman )
A good type in the making after scoring well on debut before flashing late when second last start. Can't be left out at each-way odds.
Consider
2 Big Sky
F: 11x3B(7)W(58.5)
( J-Jordan Childs )
( T-Mick Price & Michael Kent Jnr )
Not fancied in the betting, but it hasn't done anything wrong. A good third when resuming from a spell, and its first two wins were good.
Longer Odds
6 Buggsy
F: 13x14B(2)W(57.0)
( J-Craig Williams )
( T-Mick Price & Michael Kent Jnr )
It won well fresh up before battling for fourth last start. Makes its own luck, and it can't be overlooked.

Top Pick
7 Juja Kibo
F: 39x32B(10)W(55.5)
( J-Ben Melham )
( T-Ciaron Maher )
Nearing a win after two placings, and this looks like an ideal chance for it to win. 55.5kg on its back is enough to take it close.
Main Danger
11 Litzdeel
Dividend : $2.00
Place
F: 5x425B(8)W(54.0)
( J-Daniel Stackhouse )
( T-Danny O'brien )
Backed and beaten three times this campaign, but it always fights to the line, and it can't be dropped just yet. 2520m is up its alley.
Next Best
1 Wootton Verni
F: 6x805B(4)W(59.0)
( J-Jye Mcneil )
( T-Chris Waller )
Waller know how to place them well, and it wasn't far away when running fifth last time out. Heading towards a win, so keep it safe.
Consider
14 Jennivamoose
F: 4x333B(11)W(54.0)
( J-Harry Coffey )
( T-Ciaron Maher )
Knocking on the door after three placings this preparation, and carrying 54kg is ideal. No reason why it can't fight out the finish.
Longer Odds
10 Piggyback
F: 6x579B(3)W(54.0)
( J-Michael Dee )
( T-Ciaron Maher )
There has been some solid money for it, and the Maher stable is firing to start the Melbourne Spring.

Top Pick
The 'Day's Best'
2 Sir Delius
F: 331x4B(9)W(59.0)
( J-Craig Williams )
( T-Gai Waterhouse & Adrian Bott )
The best 2000m horse in Australia, and that could be proven in the Turnbull. A solid fresh up run behind a star, and this distance is more suitable.
Main Danger
4 Cosmic Crusader
Dividend : $7.50, $2.40
Won
F: x1132B(4)W(58.0)
( J-William Pike )
( T-Andrea Leek )
Should get every chance in the run from the draw, and that's its biggest asset. Likely to settle just off the speed and be there to strike.
Next Best
5 Aeliana
Dividend : $1.65
Place
F: 11x02B(2)W(57.0)
( J-Damian Lane )
( T-Chris Waller )
Good to see her back to her best when trying to chase down Autumn Glow last start. Drawn well, and it will get all favours in the run. Watch for her late.
Consider
1 Half Yours
F: 444x6B(13)W(59.0)
( J-Jamie Melham )
( T-Tony & Calvin Mcevoy )
Won the Cups double last year, and although yet to win since, this is its time of the year. A wet track could help its chances.
Longer Odds
12 She's A Hustler
F: 355x5B(7)W(55.0)
( J-Jordan Childs )
( T-Grahame Begg )
The former Kiwi won't mind the sting out of the ground, and it's nearing its best. Can't be overlooked at the odds.

Won
F: 070x6B(2)W(55.0)
( J-Ben Melham )
( T-Mitchell Freedman )
A proven winner down the straight, and it chased some nice types home last time out. Could sprout wings in the final 100m.
Main Danger
4 Hedged
F: 26x52B(1)W(59.0)
( J-Blake Shinn )
( T-Gavin Bedggood )
Likely to put itself on the speed and look to hold them off. Inside draws aren't bad down the straight, and the odds are appealing.
Next Best
2 War Machine
F: 30x30B(1)W(59.0)
( J-Mark Zahra )
( T-Ben, Will & Jd Hayes )
A Group 1 winner looking to get back to its best form. Showed speed when placing fresh up, and something close will be enough.
Consider
5 Losesomewinmore
F: 14531B(4)W(59.0)
( J-Craig Williams )
( T-Richard & Chantelle Jolly )
It knows how to win down the straight, and although unsuited at the weights, it's a tough customer. Could add another win to its record.
Longer Odds
12 Inkaruna
F: 00x43B(4)W(56.5)
( J-Ethan Brown )
( T-Anthony & Sam Freedman )
Better for two runs back this preparation, and it wasn't been far away. Could cause a minor upset.

Top Pick
3 Steparty
F: 1150xB(4)W(58.0)
( J-John Allen )
( T-Paul Preusker )
Good enough to kick-start this preparation with a win, and punters get value odds. Drawn well, and it's another good ride for Allen.
Main Danger
11 Ten Commandments
F: 31341B(3)W(54.5)
( J-Jabez Johnstone )
( T-Ciaron Maher )
It knows how to win races this prep, and it comes off an impressive victory. Might be coming to the end of it, but it's worth backing.
Next Best
8 Enxuto
F: 396x3B(14)W(55.5)
( J-William Pike )
( T-Robbie Griffiths )
A solid fresh up placing, and it shouldn't be too far away from them again. Drawn wide, but it could get a cart into the race.
Consider
16 Just Party
F: 35x15B(8)W(54.0)
( J-Craig Williams )
( T-Gerald Ryan & Sterling Alexiou )
A good winner fresh up, and although beaten last time out, they often run flat second-up. Could bounce back in a big way.
Longer Odds
17 Roulette King
F: x111xB(6)W(54.0)
( J-Jamie Mott )
( T-Trevor Rogers )
An underrated customer coming off three wins. Those are good form guides, so it could run well.
