Track Heavy 8 and rail out 2m

Race 1

5. Burma Star is an ex-Godolphin colt by renowned wet track sprint sire Exceed And Excel, having his first outing for the Chris Waller stable. Has had two trials, the latest settling well back before taken to the outside & sweeping home impressively under a hold. Drawn to get cover. 8. Barbarossa is another former Godolphin colt having his first run for the Ciaron Maher yard off an 18-week break. Drawn off the track, but won the second of two lead-up trials in smart fashion. 6. Miss Jones is bursting to break through, and should have won fourth-up when missing by a neck after being caught wide with no cover. Drawn out again, but sneaks further down in the weights, and has placed five times from eight. 13. Spice Pawn caught the eye when resuming, charging home to miss by a long neck when first-up since late March. 1. Cobra Club from the Waterhouse-Bott stable is a betting watch resuming behind two trials; so too 10. Iniesta, a colt by Farnan in the O’Shea-Charlton stable, debuting off two progressive trials.

Race 2

2. Cross Tasman is an emerging stallion primed to claim a second win at his fourth start. Tracked the speed before going home the best in a handy provincial maiden before chasing hard to miss by a long neck at Kembla. Drawn to park right behind the speed over a suitably longer trip, a top jockey takes over, and is bred to thrive in soft or heavy. 1. Delrico improved sharply third-up when hitting the late after being ridden quieter, and the weight hike has been offset with the booking of a 2kg claimer. Stablemate 3. Island Dream improving second-up over more ground, and another Waller-trained runner 5. Starry Desert coming off a fresh provincial win at his first Australian start; can both figure in the minor money. 4. Noises second-up heads the rest.

Race 3

9. Karinska is lightly raced Spirit Of Boom filly resuming off two trials on rain-affected going for the premiership winning trainer-rider combination, and was accepted to run at Rosehill last Saturday. Charged late to win at this track on debut in soft ground as a two-year-old before taking on group company over the autumn carnival. Like the way she’s trialled steadily in preparation for this, and drawn to get to the outside late. Emerges as the best value in the race. 13. Southern Heiress is well-placed to make it two from two after thrashing provincial opposition on debut as an easing favourite. Drawn to find a trail, although wouldn’t be diving into too short a price first time in the going and jumping significantly in grade. 1. Infusion reloads after digging deep to win here on debut in heavy ground, although did have to survive a protest, and draws much wider this time carrying more weight. 11. Maquisa, a stablemate of the top selection, has placed in all three runs this prep from just off speed, although another one drawn off the track and weighted up. 6. Plaza can run in the minor money second-up at big odds.

Race 4

4. The Enchanter is a promising four-year-old who can return off a 27-week break with a bang behind two trials, especially if the track continues to dry out and gets back into soft range. Always parked on speed last prep, capping a consistent run by landing his maiden here, and drawn to stalk the pace again before being given his head early in the straight. 2. Shalaa Gold is an improver second-up and relishes the going, but faces a task jumping from the outside barrier. 1. Straand Beauty shapes over the odds back in metro company from a handy on-speed draw after a dominant front-running win at Gosford. 9. Stormland resuming for just his third start off two progressive trials can run into the money, while 5. Against The Law with gear changes comes off a narrow provincial BM 64 win second-up.
