Just putting these up for kicks today:

SYDNEY

R1
Force Apollo $3.20
Damigos $4.00
Britt's Best $4.00
Mukareena $6.40
Turaga $32.00

R2
Havana Wind $1.40
Jeremiad $7.00
Hassle $7.00

Havana Wind rates as an improver and looks in a nice race.

R3
Renewable $2.30
Stella Grande $2.56
Western Beau $7.67
King Johnny $23.00 (backmarker, will need luck)

R4
Lotteria $1.70
Hollow Bullet $2.43

R5 (no point, can't back either)
Makybe Diva $1.90
Grand Armee $2.12

R6
Falkirk $2.40
Desert War $3.43
Copurts In Session $4.80
Regal Roller $12.00

R7 (slight change to my early market)
Domesday $3.60
Snitzel $4.50
Mnemosyne $6.00
Written Tycoon $6.00
Flying Pegasus $6.00

Already backed Domesday & Flying Pegasus at $26.00. Open race, had to lay one of the faves and plumped for Fashions Afield. Not the type of race i'd want to take less than $10 about something.

R8 (looks very open and full of queries)

R9
Irongail $2.30
Fourofakind $2.88
Gabfest $5.75
Sir Dex $23.00

================================================== ======

MELBOURNE

R1
Refute $2.80
Taureg $5.60
Comand n Conquer $5.60
Set Apart $7.00
Many Are Called $14.00
Action Shot $14.00

R2
Concinero $1.80
Sojustrememberthis $6.00
Marmotten $9.00
Paris Zero $9.00
Bexaar $18.00

Concinero rates a real improver. I took $8.00 about him last night before the scratching of Was That You, will take a fair deduction now.

R6
Barely a Moment $3.00
Under Command $5.00
Our Smoking Joe $6.00
Delzao $7.50
Skewiff $7.50

Taking on Modem here. In particular, Barely a Moment looks to be building up to a peak performance here. Won't get beaten if he can rate his projected peak of 69kg.

R7
Pantani $3.40
Charted $3.78
Bondy $4.86
Elwood $6.80
Eddy and D Postman $11.33

I'm taking Robbie Laing on trust here. Pantani has 2 G1 wins to his name in SA and won this race last year.

R8
Kylikwong $3.00
Ballet Society $3.75
Mango Daiquiri $4.29
Astrodame $10.00
Hairpin $15.00

Have a feeling this race will lack any value. Taking on Truly Wicked here. Rated 64.5kg first up and hasn't been able to reach it again in 4 runs since. Thats a query.

================================================== ========

ADELAIDE

R4
Leamanach $2.20
Exalted Madam $4.40
Keytocache $7.33
Tayasu Spirit $11.00
Miss Rogers $22.00
Madam King $22.00

Leamanach is another possible improver, will never find an easier race to win. Uxorial's runs this time in have been pathetic. Keytocache has also been well below his previous best.

================================================== ========

R8
Professional Lady $1.30
San Koo $4.33

If Professional Lady can rate anywhere near her projected peak here, she wins easy. Form looked very consistent last prep.
