Race 3: WOODSTOCK FAIRY(6)

Jockey: Aldo DOMEYER - Trainer: Candice BASS-ROBINSON

Once again there are many form runners in this contest but the real value could be with the Var filly WOODSTOCK FAIRY who is bred to love this rise in distance. The Bass-Robinson inmate has shown some potential over shorter despite wide barriers and she has finally cracked a good draw which should prove significant. She could also be worth following in races beyond today

Race 4: ROKATENDA(3)

Jockey: Aldo DOMEYER - Trainer: Candice BASS-ROBINSON

The ultra-consistent but costly to follow maiden ROKATENDA has the best credentials and he can claim that deserved first victory here.

Race 6: BLACK CAT BACK(1)

Jockey: Corne ORFFER - Trainer: Brett CRAWFORD

There are some really smart sprinters on display in this competitive handicap but the top quality seven-furlong specialist BLACK CAT BACK may still give them plenty to ponder about. The Brett Crawford inmate has a brilliant burst of speed and he should be equal to the task despite shouldering top weight.

TOP BET

Race 7: WESTON(2)

Jockey: Bernard FAYD'HERBE - Trainer: Justin SNAITH

WESTON is realizing her earlier potential for her new yard and the daughter of Philanthropist was supremely impressive when she outsprinted a fair line-up that included RUSTAR DHOW (3.5kgs better off) recently. She expectedly received the maximum eight-pound penalty but the four-year-old could still be ahead of the handicapper, particularly over sprint distances and she holds huge claims of following up despite the rise in class. She is capable around the turn.

VALUE BET FOR TODAY

Race 8: TWILIGHT TRIP(6) 

Jockey: Aldo DOMEYER - Trainer: Candice BASS-ROBINSON

TWILIGHT TRIP has enjoyed a great start to his career and the lightly raced four-year-old could be worth following this campaign. The Trippi gelding finished strongly for narrow back-to-back victories before perhaps just finding the nine furlongs beyond reach last time out. He earned his 14-week break though and should be extremely competitive on his seasonal debut. He jumps from a good draw and should prefer this shorter distance.
