..,,great finish Tatts Mile Mitanni ridden a treat but Smart & Mighty just a tad better on the day...Sassbee strong winner Monash but thought Super Elegant should have finished closer..lost momentum just as he was making his run...should have got further in front of Sassbee at that stage...Great Nation just got up to win his 2nd Beaufine.,,Impressive Stats back to his best..

Gutsy win by the reigning Hannan’s Handicap winner Wire Detonator in yesterdays Newmarket Handicap!

The run of Moodometer was also a bottler! After being held up behind runners, swamped them late to finish fourth, running the fastest sectional of the race.

Bel Danoro should be winning here. The 52kg gives him a nice weight pull on some of the big guns.

As a roughie, i give a place chance to Polar Bear, yet to win at anything less than 1400, but has won twice first up. Brad Rawillers only ride for the day, and he is in white hot form. Could be one to follow for the spring.

Good luck!
