Form Analysis by Rob Auber
Race 1:
OVERVIEW: INSIDER TRADING (8) strikes a suitable race class wise and gets a nice trailing draw to settle in a handy position. Looks well placed and should be fighting out the finish. CHALKNCHEDDAR (5) should be primed after two runs back from a spell and does have the gate speed to be in a prominent position. Might take some catching. ALOOK TO LIKE (3) is very honest and rarely far away. Must be respected here. THE MOUNTAIN (6) has ability and this race lacks depth. Has claims along with EL AWOMAN (2) whilst PRINCESS ALEXANDRA (4) and OSCAR BRAVO (1) have ability and could run well fresh to be amongst the place and first four hopes.
EARLY SPEED: 1,5,6
SELECTIONS: INSIDER TRADING (8) CHALKNCHEDDAR (5) ALOOK TO LIKE (3) THE MOUNTAIN (6)
RATINGS: 8/ 5/ 3/ 6/ 4/ 2/ 1
SUGGESTED BET: INSIDER TRADING (8) to Win.
Race 2:
OVERVIEW: MANDA KYVALLEY (11) does have her share of ability but did things wrong last start. Looks well placed here but faces a second-row draw to overcome. At her best she should be in the finish. CHAMPAGNES (10) mixes her form but showed improvement last start when runner up and can threaten again here. SNICKERS EXPRESS (8) forgive last start and his prior form suggested he is close to a win. Does need some luck from the draw but must be respected. Both FRANKYTHEFRENCHMAN (5) and CHILLHUNNYBUNNY (4) will appreciate the front-line draw and are going well enough to be amongst the winning chances.
EARLY SPEED: 4,5

RATINGS: 11/ 10/ 8/ 5/ 4

Race 3:
OVERVIEW: The David Drury runners THE ULTIMATUM (10) and ALWAYS BE TECHY (9) are both progressing nicely and look to have the ability to be winning chances with suitable trips. Expect strong showings. Both COLORADO GIRL (1) and THEROUX (3) have had a few chances in recent times to break their maiden status without success. They have favourable draws here and should get every chance to be in the finish. HAPPENSTBABEACHBOY (8) should strip fitter and expect improvement and can’t be dismissed along with local trained runner ROYAL ROCKSTAR (2) that has a nice draw. MISSMALACHITE (5) was runner up here two starts ago and has claims.
EARLY SPEED: 1,3

Race 4:
OVERVIEW: EL CONQUEROR (7) good effort to win the Swan Hill Trotters Cup at his first Australian start and looks well placed here to run a mighty race again. FAITH FULL (4) has enjoyed a stellar season and steps up again here by having her first stand attempt. If she goes away, she will be in this for a long way. ALDEBARAN BROOKE (10) is racing very well and is a prior winner from the stand. Definite chance despite the handicap. Both MAESTRO (3) and IM ABOVE THE LAW (2) have solid stand records and must be respected from the front line. WISH UPONA DREAM (8) can improve on recent form and can’t be ignored. TWEEDLEDEE (11) I DREAM OF MILLIE (9) JAKARTA (5) FREMARKS PEGGY (1) and DOUBLE HELIX (6) have all shown ability throughout their career and have place and first four claims.
EARLY SPEED: 2,3,7

SUGGESTED BET: EL CONQUEROR (7) to Win.
Race 5:
OVERVIEW: INTO THE HARKNESS (8) capable mare when at her best and despite the awkward draw if the breaks come here way expect big improvement from her current figure form. Definite chance. NOTHING SWEETER (5) continues to race very well and looks well placed from the draw and should be fighting out the finish and prove hard to hold out. SENNA STORM (7) hasn’t enjoyed much racing luck and gets another wide draw here to overcome. Going better than his figure form reads and can bounce back in this. FEELINGOODFREDDIE (1) good effort last start and draws ideally here to be well placed. One of the chances. ZANDA MAN (11) promising youngster that shows plenty of ability. Up in grade however might keep stepping up. Can’t knock his form. IMPEACHED (4) STARZINHEREYES (9) and TORQUE POWER (10) are amongst the place and first four chances.

Race 6:
OVERVIEW: SWISS LIGHTNING (6) might have a slight advantage with the front-line draw and should be well poised. Expect a bold showing here. CARUSO STAR (8) big winner last start and looks hard to beat again though the awkward barrier draw has evened up the contest. A major chance if the breaks come his way. TELLMEBOUTIT (10) racing well without winning and is sure to be running home strongly again. Must be respected. VILLAGE VOICE (9) ELLI JOH (5) SHE WILL WANTANO (7) and ELITE MOLLY (13) all have ability and are amongst the chances whilst HILLDALE SUNRISE (1) MARTIN MAGIC (11) and THE NAKED ART (12) are place and first four hopes.

Race 7:
OVERVIEW: JILLIBY KYMY LOU (7) showed brilliant early speed to lead throughout last start and will attempt to do the same here and should take some catching. The Rebecca East army of runners EASTBRO KOZZY (9) WE FAVOUR ROSIE (11) and GRINNING BEACH BOY (12) are all going well and have strong winning chances with suitable trips and must all be respected. MAYWYNS JEWEL (4) started favourite last start and does have early speed and has claims along with the improving LEWIELEWIS (3), whilst WOW YOU CAN DANCE (1) YNOBE NOVA (10) OCEAN AVENUE (13) PRETTY BASIC (2) and THE TRI LINE (5) are first four chances.

OVERVIEW: OPERATIVE LINE (10) resumes here and faces a drop-in class to his previous form and despite the second row expect a strong showing fresh and should prove hard to hold out. DHAULAGIRI (9) racing well and is rock hard fit. Sure to make his presence felt again and is one of the main chances. The Aaron Dunn team LITTLE LOUIE (8) and MAXY WANTS TO PLAY (6) both have their share of good ability and a hometown Cup win will certainly be a main mission. Must be respected. SWEETPASSION (7) resumes and does have plenty of talent. Stable can produce them fresh and will run well. BIZZNESS CLASS (5) going well and will press forward to be handy. Not out of this. CRIME WRITER (4) NOSWEETSFORYOU (1) BULLDOG KHAN (2) and TELEMACHUS (3) are amongst the place and first four hopes.

OVERVIEW: BROWNIESATMIDNIGHT (10) resumes here but has very good ability when right. Strikes a suitable race and expect a big showing fresh.
