Last week was a little annoying as our each way play was off the map in the Hill Smith Stakes but scratched just before race time.

But the Durbridge Stakes is running and surely Flamberge just has to win the Listed race based on several factors.

Only beaten by Chautauqua in the McEwen he was then under two lengths off Buffering in the Moir Stakes.

To top that off he won the G1 Goodwood at this very course and distance back in May and now raced infinitely inferior types.

We may get closer to $1.60 on the day.

Giving Belle Melba another show after having issues in the resuming run at Warrnambool.

Encountering respiratory problems, she runs again after four months off and draws nicely with a good jockey.

Her first two efforts at the end of last year were very solid wins starting odds on each time.

Hope she uses that speed again which is clearly an asset of hers.

SAY FROM SA

BET OF THE DAY (1): Race 6 #1 Flamberge @ $1.40

BET OF THE DAY (2): Race 4 #4 Belle Melba @ $2.40
