Trainer-driver Amanda Turnbull.

With a winning strike rate of 24 per cent top NSW reinswoman Amanda Turnbull has a busy night ahead at Bathurst. 

Turnbull, the most successful female driver in the state with 2282 wins to her credit, has been building her own team of horses in the last decade and has trained 935 winners. 

The 32-year-old only has one outside drive tonight for trainer Darrell Dwyer and his pacer Carbaganoosh while Turnbull has three of her own pacers engaged. 

Turnbull will drive Racing Time (race one) and Firefly (race six) and will utilise Isobel Ross to drive her pacer Carlo Gambino in race four. 

Turnbull also has a strong team in at Menangle on Saturday including her Inter Dominion heat winner Bundoran. 

The iForm best bets for tonight:

Bathurst best bet

Race 7: Onetwo Threecheese (1)

Ideally drawn in a suitable class of race.

Bathurst next best

Race 8: Taste Of Diamonds (9)

Sound on debut for the stable and may appreciate a softer trip.
