Cadillac Style is a member of a strong kennel and he caught the eye when winning here last week in 30.10. On that occasion he missed the kick but he mustered speed at a great rate and he assumed control mid race, if he can step cleanly tonight he should be able to lead early and I would expect him to go a lot faster on the clock.

Broadway Miss was airborne early in her sizzling 29.55 heat win and if she turns in a similar effort tonight she will figure prominently again. There isn't a lot of speed drawn on either side so if she steps on terms she should get plenty of room to drive through and put herself in a commanding position.

Ringer was far from disgraced in his debut placing here and he is a member of a promising litter. He was very well supported on debut so I'm guessing he has a fair amount of talent and he should be able to improve on his debut run.

Gaucho rounds out the chances, he looks well placed in the pink draw and he hit the line in an impressive manner when scoring here last week in 29.88. He copped a knock soon after box rise so I would expect him to maybe go a little quicker on the clock tonight if he is given a clear run.

Top Four: 4 – 6 – 5 – 8

Suggested Bets:

Win bet on Cadillac Style with Sportingbet

Boxed Quinella: 4,5,6,8 ($6 for 100%)

Trifecta: 4/5,6,8/Field ($18 for 100%)

Exacta: 4,5,6/4,5,6,8 (9 for 100%)

Hashtag Selfie is racing in consistent fashion and he has been placed in five of six runs here with two of those efforts being victories. Last time out she pinged the lids and went past the first marker in a zippy 5.05, with slow beginners drawn on either side she should be able to assume control soon after the start and it's hard to see her getting reeled in when going sub 29.50 on the bunny.

Axis Bale is much better than his recent form reads and he should get a nice cart across as they head into the first turn, he is lacking a little confidence at present but he has won here previously in a blistering 29.31.

Jayney Bale has the class edge and she will be steaming home at the end, she does rely heavily on luck in her races but if she can find the rail without too much bother she should be able to make an impact.

Dyna Tony could be the value in the event, he isn't overly strong but he does possess smart early speed and he could run a cheeky race at nice odds.

Top Four: 7 – 8 – 4 – 5

Suggested Bets:

Win bet on Hashtag Selfie with Sportingbet

Quinella: 4,5,7,8 ($6 for 100%)

Exacta: 7,8/4,5,7,8 ($6 for 100%)

Trifecta: 7/4,5,8/Field ($18 for 100%)

Sisco Rage is racing in career best form at present and he appears drawn to get the cash. Last time out he sizzled early before scoring at The Meadows in 34.39 and if he can show similar speed tonight he should be running time over this shorter trip. He has been placed in five of eight over this journey and most of those efforts have been in much stronger company.

Summer Wages is another who is racing well and he was far from disgraced when placed at Warragul last time. He tends to save his best for this track, so if he can getaway well he should be able to drive to the early lead and he should give Sisco Rage something to catch.

Bayman Bale has the good draw and if he can settle in the top three early he should run a big race, he can be hard to follow at times but he is capable of running time when he lands on the bunny.

Xtreme Gretel is a former American chaser and she should be ready to fire after two runs from a spell, she is a member of an in form kennel and she must be respected at odds.

Top Four: 8 – 5 – 1 – 4

Suggested Bets:

Win bet on Sisco Rage with Sportingbet

Exacta: 1,5,8/1,4,5,8 ($9 for 100%)

Quinella: 8 to rove with 1,4,5 ($3 for 100%)

Trifecta: 8/1,4,5/Field ($18 for 100%)

Full On Bling is a super fast talent and he scored a devastating 33.92 win here last Sunday. Last week he had the advantage of the red but he is blessed with good track sense and he should be able to overcome a couple of difficulties early in the race. With a heap of speed drawn in six he should get a nice cart across in the early stages and if he settles in the first three I can't see them holding him out.

Diva's Shadow is a reliable beginner and she should lead them up for a long way. She made her debut over this journey last start and she got a little tired up the home straight but she should be able to derive a lot of benefit from that run.

My Jack Rabbit has been racing in strong company recently and he looks well placed in the pink, if he can settle in the top two early he should be able to make a big impact. He has won two of five here and he does hold an impressive 34.24 PB.

My Name's Jessie rounds out the chances, she finally returned to the winners list last time but with the rise in class tonight I think place claims look best.

Top Four: 7 – 6 – 8 – 2

Suggested Bets:

Win bet on Full On Bling with Sportingbet

Exacta: 6,7,8/2,6,7,8 ($9 for 100%)

Trifecta: 7/2,6,8/Field ($15 for 100%)

Trifecta: 6,7/6,7/Field ($10 for 100%)

Quinella: 7 to rove with 2,6,8 ($3 for 100%)

Frank Furter is flying at present and his effort to score at Sale last time in a blistering 24.79 was super impressive. He is normally a very reliable beginner and he has proven in his career to date that he is capable of reeling off very quick sectionals when he lands on the bunny. He has a bit of speed drawn underneath him but as long as he doesn't crash to the fence too early he should be able to burn Dark Jameson off.

Eyeful Of Bling is blessed with amazing talent but he can be a little unreliable at times, like Frank Furter, he was a sizzling Sale winner last time out in 24.72 and a similar performance tonight would see him prove hard to beat. He can bomb the start at times but if he gets away tonight he should play a major role.

Hello Good Bye is a former star chaser and he is still going ok, he should be able to follow Frank Furter across early and if he can settle in the first half he should figure prominently.

Zipping Ryan is the up and comer in the event, he set the track alight at Bendigo three starts back when winning in 23.60 and if he pings away he could cause a minor upset.

Top Four: 4 – 1 – 5 – 6

Suggested Bets:

Win bet on Frank Furter with Sportingbet

Boxed Quinella: 1,4,5,6 ($6 for 100%)

Exacta: 1,4,5/1,4,5,6 ($9 for 100%)

Trifecta: 4/1,5,6/Field ($18 for 100%)

Trifecta: 1,4,5/1,4,5,6/1,3,4,5,6,7 ($36 for 100%)

Good race and I think the improving Crackerjack Max can return to the winners list. In December he posted three brilliant wins on the trot and on each occasion he showed a good turn of foot soon after box rise and he assumed command not long after the start. Last time out he was no match for super star chaser Dyna Villa and he really should appreciate the drop in class tonight.

Bad Boy Sniper is a gun NSW speedster and he recently trialled at The Meadows in a sizzling 29.83, he is better suited to a rails draw but if he can get away cleanly he should be able to follow Crackerjack Max across into the first bend.

High Class is aiming for a hat trick of wins and her last start victory here was in a super 29.47, she is a better chaser when on the bunny and her 5.21 first section last time is a bit of a concern. I dont think she can win tonight but she must be included in your exotics.

Ruffonic is the interesting runner, he has an enormous amount of ability but he can be very unreliable, he has his draw tonight and if he puts it altogether he will run a big race at odds.

Top Four: 6 – 7 – 2 – 8

Suggested Bets:

Win bet on Crackerjack Max with Sportingbet

Boxed Quinella: 2,6,7,8 ($6 for 100%)

Trifecta: 6,7,8/2,6,7,8/2,3,4,6,7,8 ($36 for 100%)

Weblec Rose was desperately unlucky in the Laurels final last time out and she will be looking to make amends. Prior to that she did post a slick 29.39 win here and on that occasion she made the classy Lamia Bale look like a grade 5 chaser. If she can repeat her scintillating 4.93 to the first marker she should be able to lead again and it's hard to see them getting near her.

Lektra Hawk could be the value in the race, I'm a big fan of his and if he can step a little better tonight he will run a big race at odds. He has won here previously in 29.50 and he will be powering to the line.

Ima Fairytale is racing in great form and she caught the eye in her slick 34.35 Meadows win last time out, she can be hit or miss early but if she can settle in the first half of the field she will be there at the end.

Rumbling Rick is a class act when on song and he returned to form two runs back when scoring at Ballarat in 25.23, he will need to lead to win but he can show great early speed when given room in the first 50m.

Top Four: 3 – 7 – 4 – 2

Suggested Bets:

Win bet on Weblec Rose with Sportingbet

Quinella: 3 to rove with 2,4,7 ($3 for 100%)

Exacta: 3,7/2,3,4,7 ($6 for 100%)

Trifecta: 3/2,4,7/Field ($18 for 100%)

Very open race but I think the old timer Buckle Up Mason can get the job done. Two starts back he showed a return to form when he matched motors with Musquin Bale for most of the trip here and if he can step cleanly he should sit outside of Dyna Nico for most of the trip and I would expect him to prove too strong in the run home.

Walt Bale is going to be a gun stayer in the future and although he lacks experience I think he can make an impact in this event, he is likely to settle back in the field but he has great track sense and he will be steaming home at the end.

Dyna Nihilist was a little disappointing last time but when he is switched on he is an absolute beast. If he can avoid bother in the first 50m he should make a strong move mid race and he will give them a fright as they turn for home.

Maximum Lil is the only other chance, she is hit or miss early but when she pings she is capable of running ridiculous times.

Top Four: 6 – 2 – 7 – 5

Suggested Bets:

Win bet on Buckle Up Mason with Sportingbet

Trifecta: 5,6,7/2/Field ($18 for 100%)

Trifecta: 5,6,7/Field/2 ($18 for 100%)

Quinella: 6 to rove with 2,5,7 ($3 for 100%)

Exacta: 5,6,7/2,5,6,7 ($9 for 100%)

Star Recall is absolutely airborne at present and from the red it's hard to see her being headed in this event. She should be able to pounce on the early lead and she will be reeling off blistering sectionals on the bunny. Last time out she captured the Sale Cup final and at the short odds I think its best just to anchor her up front in your exotic bets.

Quasi Bale stepped up in distance last time and he looked ultra impressive in his 34.39 Meadows win, I think Star Recall will have too much early burn for him but he should sit a couple of lengths behind her and he won't be too far away at the end.

Come On Fantasy continues to excel over this distance range and she should run a cheeky race again, with the empty draw on her outside she should get a clear run and there shouldn't be too many excuses.

Top Four: 1 – 8 – 4 – 6

Suggested Bets:

Trifecta: 1/4,6,8/Field ($15 for 100%)

Exacta: 1,8/1,4,6,8 ($6 for 100%)

Quinella: 1 to rove with 4,6,8 ($3 for 100%)

Trifecta: 1/8/Field ($5 for 100%)

One Dee is a lid pinger and she led for a long way when placed here last time behind the in form Spring Leaf. She isn't overly strong but I'm expecting her to find the bunny in the early stages again and if they shuffle up behind her she may just steal the prize.

Clash Of Kings is a class act and if he gets a few breaks in the early stages he will take a power of beating. He is better suited to a rails draw but if given room to muster speed he should be outside One Dee at the first turn and he should put her to the sword as they head for the back straight. He really does have panels on this lot but I'm a bit concerned about the box draw.

Earl Bale is showing some promise and he appears to be getting stronger with every run, he doesn't have much speed drawn around him so with a clean getaway he should get every chance to settle in the top two or three early.

Dyna Geldof rounds out the chances, he doesn't win often these days but he has the good draw and he is never far away in this company.

Top Four: 6 – 8 – 3 – 1

Suggested Bets:

Trifecta: 3,6,8/1,3,6,8/1,3,4,6,7,8 ($36 for 100%)

Exacta: 3,6,8/1,3,6,8 ($9 for 100%)

Quinella: 6 to rove with 1,3,8 ($3 for 100%)

Caustic Bale is the real deal and with a clear run it will be interesting to see what time he can put on the board. Tonight he has the luxury of slow beginners being drawn on either side, so if he can step on terms he should be allowed to show his devastating turn of foot and I would expect him to burn them off as they head through the bend.

Blue Giant has a big engine but I would prefer him from a wider draw, four starts back he was placed in the Ballarat Cup final and he followed that effort up with a top placing behind Keybow at The Meadows in sizzling time. If he can get some room to move through the first bend he should make a big impact.

Dyna Zod has the speed to lead and he could give a great sight, I dont think he can hold on but he must be included in your exotic bets.

Hailstorm Billy is another for the exotics, he has a top record here and this race is a little easier in overall depth to what he has been facing in recent times.

Top Four: 7 – 1 – 3 – 8

Suggested Bets:

Win bet on Caustic Bale with Sportingbet

Boxed Quinella: 1,3,7,8 ($6 for 100%)

Exacta: 1,3,7/1,3,7,8 ($9 for 100%)

Trifecta: 7/1,3,8/Field ($18 for 100%)

Spring Leaf is currently flying and with a good getaway tonight she should be able to make every post a winner. Three starts back she reeled off impressive sectionals when winning here in 29.37 and a repeat of that effort would see her win with ease tonight.

Usain I'm Nutty is probably going to be a nice stayer in the future and at present he showing plenty over the shorter journey's. Two starts back he really caught the eye when placed behind Dyna Villa at The Meadows and on that occasion his personal time was sub 30 seconds.

Mepunga Moss is hit or miss early but she loves racing here and when she pings she is capable of running some serious time. She is lacking confidence at present but if she finds the bunny early she might just keep going.

Dyna Chaser rounds out the chances, he is never far away in this company and he only needs a few breaks in the early stages.

Top Four: 6 -5 – 1 – 3

Suggested Bets:

Win bet on Spring Leaf (and Mepunga Moss if she is silly odds) with Sportingbet

Boxed Quinella: 1,3,5,6 ($6 for 100%)

Exacta: 5,6/1,3,5,6 ($6 for 100%)

Trifecta: 6/1,3,5/Field ($18 for 100%)
