#2 I SEE YOU COMING goes in all exotics, will be competitive again. #5 MANGO TANGO WINE interest me the most, good j/o form with Place of Gold, will back if reasonable odds. #9 EXCUSEZ MOI impressive late on debut, extra distance tick. #10 SERENE MOON good race form with Django, will be in the finish. Good maiden. Smoke ‘N’ Gin can run a place. Tough race hard to see a standout bet, reckon alot of these will go on to win a maiden. If MANGO got out to $10 + race time it would entice me to have something small
See you coming looks short for mine at $3.50. #9 Excusez will be strong late, Chosen Miss franked form. Van Roy franked Serene form. Hard to really split those three
Caught eye but waiting to see if others through same j/o’s show something, few others in race will be watching replays. Warming to a bit, most of these have had a chance to do something by now. Cornucopia scares me with the Van Roy form but at $10 could have a couple dollars on Patrika for an interest
R3 #14 TWOCOT HOUSE
Same, watching to see if j/o form holds up, no bet. #3 MY MAN GODFREY wouldn’t shock, always shown a little bit and recent j/o was with Divaring who ran well enough on debut. I wouldn’t be shocked if #16 ASHBERG won too, Vasmee and Kadena franked form and even Nuriya has subs won, got race fitness on side and looks some value if you want to have a couple dollars on something

#13 THE SABBATH
Maybe just hated Vic, changed trainers, recent trial the jock was restraining big time, Al Ash Lad and Forked Tongue subs ran okay

#5 JIPUSHI j/o beat Sharp Response. You can forgive #7 LI’L LOFT wide on debut, think goes better than that, goes in all exotics. #8 MASAKO ran well on debut behind speedy one, can def win. #9 MISS MIDDLE PARK and Nasdana look more place chances for mine. Breadcrumbs can fill a place too if you are going wide in exotics. I personally will have something very small Jipushi and Li’l Loft just because I think they may drift
$12 Jipushi looks ok but need to go through race more
We have a small stake on Merlin’s. If Miss Middle runs well in the first though, respect #12 Munchette who will give a good sight

#7 TIGERTUDE
Forgiving last start, missed the kick worked home okay and think 2nd horse goes well, they ran decent time for maiden class, he handled wet on debut, few plodders here
R4 #4 HUSSY
Maybe have 50 cents on if you have some spare, no confidence but don’t mind the profile when they show something at trials early, poor race starts but returns with no public trial and big odds
