#6 PRESS FOR VICTORY like the way she was making late ground in the Flemington j/o behind Vail Mountain. She was then ridden a bit in the straight to beat Magnetic in the next j/o, Magnetic has won a race. Not sure there should be such a big difference between Wanaroo and #8 SWIFT SISTER she was a bit slow away on debut but I thought okay late and there was not much between Wanaroo, Swift and Biceps. Swift has a heap of gear changes and if she can jump and sit in a more forward position, could be a chance at odds
#2 BAJRAKTARI cost me a fortune this horse and this is the final chance, did a bit of work early last start and was pretty weak late but maybe just couldn’t run out 1400m. The favourite Apsara will come out because running today, once that happens it looks a very avg race to me, hard to pick with any confidence but I would be pretty flat if he got up and I had dropped off. #7 RICH BAY is the other one that would not shock, split Mask Up and Glassey Miss at the j/o’s, $8.50 looks decent odds to have something small on too
$17 – $8.50

#10 LORD REMY
Went into the debut with a fair chunk of time after trial so you would expect should improve a fair bit fitness wise, can also finish off stronger if can find some cover this time

#2 INTOLE RANT
Given time to improve since the debut, couple trials have been good enough against some opposition that have gone well since, Sword Point and Able Willie. Marvelous ran okay since from first trial

R3 #5 CALM DOWN
Always back on debut but I liked the way it was warming up late, extra distance tick
