Always hard this time this time of year in Brissie...i do like a couple though..
Hoping for a good day after a losing last Saturday and an ordinary week..

Race 1.
An open race to start off with. My top four are Nediym's Image, Fort Custom, Circus Maximus and A sirla ...but theres a few others that rate high aswell...to hard this race...
I have Refs Call and Circus Maximus going forward from the awkward barriers..and that will be an advantage here as they are an even bunch so the best run wins....Intersting breeding this Fort Custom..
Nediyms Spirit looks to get the good run from the inside...solid run last start and is in nicely with the claim..Looks the safest bet here if you have to have a go....Circus Maximus is in form and drops weight great e/w chance...

Race 2.
A real non race really...but how many times have you seen the short priced runner lose in small fields.....Bikie will win i cant see anything beating him...no way i'll be on...
Only way to utilise the 1.20 is to all up into another horse later in the meet..atleast its something..

Race 3.
Skyleda won well last start and although King Latarmiss finally gets some weight relief i still think SkyLeda wins even though he'll be a mile back on the turn...hes better across the road and because of this i might get a price...
King Latarmiss from the good barrier and racing well so hes in this up to his ears.....not convinced about Eskimo Dan yet but he won well last start and is an improver...
Sky Leda/ King Latarmiss ....field

Race 4.
Stepping the top rater,,,but at the shorts from the ugly barrier she'd want to be good...Amber Lodge on best form wins and wins easily,,she did show last start at the coast with the weight that she still has something to offer and will be up on the speed......Nothing else in this race except maybe Miss Information and Shes Rocking could challenge the top 2...
Stepping/Amber Lodge...Miss Information/Shes Rocking

Race 5.
Trivo was impressive at the Sunny Coast and will have admirers..im willing to take him on as he does alot wrong and is a bit green...he overcome this last start but here against these he'll have to be switched on...
Melifluorus competitive against some good youngsters around the place ,,,he also has the blinkers on which i dont mind for the youngsters...should get a price to ....Plachutta is hard to catch and seems to just like the coast,,still capable of competing here as the best rider of the the inexperienced horses in the country Colless makes a huge difference,,,

Race 6.
Fleeting Echo will start short,,nicely weighted good barrier and running time......If So chic who ran well last start is it nice e/w odds maybe ..but you'd want a price from that barrier around here...,,looks a look on race ..
Nasarlo has speed and from the inside will give some cheek and might pester Fleeting Echo who a couple of starts ago did get worried out of it.....if he is vulnerable to pressure ..So Chic and Dangerous Host the ones...
good luck

Race 7.
I've taken on Rasmussen twice now and hes got me both times.....well i'm taking him on again here...i'm punting on the fact the extra distance will suit Imperilism more than it will him...Imperilism will again get the good run but got run off his feet when they sprinterd...looked like he really needed the run...I like him here and he likes the track which helps...
Rasmussen actually has a horse in this race that has good speed to keep up with him in Noble Gaze ...hopeully these two go nuts up front...
Imperilism ....Rassmussen/Noble Gaze/Ceffyl

Race 8.
I'm a big fan of Son Of Dane but i heard hes scratched tomorrow...I cant go past Rock Of Mufasa. ,,he went past them last start in cruise mode..I'm a fan of Sweet Ransom and and Socialist but both are more suited across the road....Spur ME on gives them the speed the need and Persuades will be up there giving cheek aswell.....
I cant get over the way Rock of Mufasa went past them last start...this i know is harder but i reckon Cahill had a couple of lengths in reserve....Sweet Ransom the big danger....
Rock Of Mufasa / Sweet Ransom....Persuades/Socialist

Best Bets ... Skyleda /Stepping/ Imperilism/ Rock Of Mufasa
Best e/ws ... Meliflourus
