THOROUGHBREDS
Mornington: Race 1; #4 Stranded
I'm surprised to see the Ciaron Maher-trained Stranded at the top of the market off what I've seen at the jumpouts, the two-year-old son of Proisir has appeared all out at both of his last two public peices of work and I'd prefer a handful of others.
Murwillumbah: Race 5; #1 Second Sun
This is the first time we are seeing last start winner SECOND SUN out over the 2000m trip and the query is that even though he may be the class runner, he will have to see out this trip carrying a big 61.5kg which feels like that could test him late if they do put a good speed into the race.
GREYHOUNDS
Reaper has been impressive in recent runs at Sandown Park but not certain the drop back in distance is ideal in a race with plenty of pressure off the mat. He looks poorly drawn out wide with the speedy Giacomo to his outside who could cut him off early.
Geelong: Race 7; #1 Ferocious Canary
Ferocious Canary has won well her last two starts with a great forward pattern but these races were weak overall. This looks a lot harder and she may react negatively with the increase in pressure in the early stages.
Richmond: Race 3; #8 Calla Tilly
Not sure 8 can get across here. Looks too short in the market and happy to be against. If 7 handles the track first go, he'll be mighty hard to beat
