A point you might want to consider. Conditions & rail positions could lead to the same thing happening as last Sunday. At that meeting, almost all of the races were won by horses with wide barriers and barrier 1 horses never even managed a placing all day.
Okay, for what it's worth, here are some thoughts:
R1: 1-3-8-15
A tough race. Trainer Bruce McLaughlan has 4 good chances (1, 3, 7 & 8) Of these, I favour 1 & 3 slightly. Another rough chance is the 15 with Byrne riding.
R2: 1-4-5-15
Another tough race. I think number 1 is the best horse in this race though and it would be my pick. Away from him, any number of chances, 4, 5, 10, 12, 13 & 15.
R3: 1-3
A toss up between number 1 & number 3 here I think.
R4: 8-2-4-5
My top pick here would be number 8 just ahead of number 2. Many other chances though - 1, 4, 5, 9, 14 & 17
As you can see, I'm not confident. Perhaps you should check out xptdriver's ratings for today. Look under 'Caloundra'.
