Queen Esther has been a great chaser for quite a while now and she has won 14 of her 66 tries over this track and trip. The middle pin is a small concern but there isn't a whole lot of speed drawn around her so with a clean getaway she should be able to roll to the early lead and she is a very hard chaser to get past when on the lure.
Dear Darcey looks well placed in the red and he has won two of three starts here. He had turned in a couple of steady performances before bouncing back last time with a speedy 29.89 Gosford win. He should be in a prominent position throughout and he should still be there at the business end.
Down Every Road is the most talented chaser in the event and with a clear run he will be winning. The concern with him is that he has a very fast beginner drawn on his outside who is also a keen railer, so he is likely to be crowded soon after box rise.
Top Four: 5 – 1 – 3 – 8
Suggested Bets:
Win bet on Queen Esther with William Hill

Scarp Missile is normally a very reliable beginner and she finds herself in a race which lacks genuine early speed. If she can step cleanly again tonight she fire to the early lead and I would expect her to build up a nice lead mid race. She has a slick 29.85 PB here and that type of run would see her win with considerable ease.
Prince Zesta is in good hands and he is better than his past couple of runs suggest. Three runs back he really caught the eye with a devastating 29.62 Gosford win and if he can repeat that type of run he will be right in the mix.
My Gangsta is the run on type in the event, he will get too far back early to score but he does have great track sense and he could be a good anchor for third and fourth in your exotic bets.
Winsome Senor is the interesting runner, he can be very hard to follow but he is capable of very good things when switched on. If he goes around at silly odds he could be worth a saver bet.
Top Four: 7 – 4 – 8 – 6
Suggested Bets:
Win bet on Scarp Missile

Lemon Tree Girl is dropping considerably in class tonight and with her early speed she should be leading throughout. Last time out she led for most of the trip before being run down by the classy Are Jip. She is favourably drawn in the eight box and with the lack of early speed drawn directly underneath there should be no excuses for her.
Mako Man has been racing in solid style at Nowra of late and he will be hitting the line solidly. He has now had four runs since a spell and he should be at peak fitness now and ready to fire.
Tiggerlong Killa has won three of eight here and he will be very strong in the run to the line, if he can balance up in the top four he could test the pink in the run to the finish line.
Rubelly Magic is a runner which must be kept safe in your exotic bets. She has the speed to lead and although she is quite weak she might be able to hang on for third or fourth spot.
Top Four: 8 – 7 – 5 – 4
Suggested Bets:
Win bet on Lemon Tree Girl

Little High is a highly talented prospect and he was very unlucky when placed here last time out. Prior to that run he did post a slick 29.92 win here and if he can repeat that type of effort he should take a power of beating. There is a little bit of speed on his outside which is a small concern but if he gets away on terms he has more than enough pace to hold them out.
Kurmond Goddess has a great record over this trip and she is dropping a little in class tonight. She can take a little while to wind up but if she can settle in the top four early she will make her presence felt as they approach the line.
Once A Drifter has a big engine but he can make a lot of mistakes early in his races. If he can get some room to balance up and make a move mid race he can get the cash, however he would need to be a nice price to invest.
My Awesome Opal rounds out the chances, he is drawn to be in the mix early and he could hang on for some minor money if he avoids trouble at the first turn.
Top Four: 5 – 8 – 4 – 1
Suggested Bets:
Win bet on Little High
Quinella: 5 to rove with 1,4,8 ($3 for 100%)

1st: $4,650 2nd: $1,350 3rd: $670.

Blue Revolver has come up with the good draw and he should give a great sight. He is blessed with sizzling early speed and he beat the classy Aphorism here two runs back when recording an impressive 29.92. If he can find the top early he should dash away mid race and get the cash.
Entreaty is drawn to trail the red in the early stages and that should allow her to get the run of the race for most of the journey. She has broken the 30 second barrier here previously and if she is close enough to the red as they turn for home she might be able to run him down.
Still Searchin' will be well fancied in the event and she has strong prospects, however from the middle pin she is going to need a lot of things to go her way in running.
Booster Valve could be the value for your exotic bets, she will get back early but she does hit the line solidly and she will be big odds.
Top Four: 1 – 2 – 4 – 8
Suggested Bets:
Win bet on Blue Revolver with William Hill

Ryley Sams has been ultra impressive in his brief career to date and with an ounce of luck early he should be winning. Three starts back he destroyed a quality lineup when posting a slick 29.90 over this journey and he has followed that effort up with another win and a placing over this trip. The draw is a big disadvantage tonight but there are a couple of railers underneath so he might be able to get a clear cart across in the early stages.
Ritza Rossi is another who is poorly drawn but he has a massive engine and after two solid placings over this trip he is getting close to another win. His box manners have let him down of late so that is a slight concern but if he can come out tonight he should be in contention throughout.
Wild Fire will be hitting the line solidly and he caught the eye with a strong 30.28 heat win last week, he will probably get too far back to score but he should take home some minor money.
Winsome Amanda could be the value, she appears to be an improving type and she has won here previously in a solid 30.01.
Top Four: 6 – 4 – 3 – 7
Suggested Bets:
Win bet on Ryley Sams
Quinella: 6 to rove with 3,4,7 ($3 for 100%)

Knight Sprite is an explosive talent and he recently sizzled around the Gosford circuit in 29.46. He has won two of his eight tries here and he owns an impressive 29.72 PB. The draw is a little concern but he does like to move right soon after box rise so it might not be too big of a disadvantage.
Nightwatchman is a strong chaser and he recently beat the classy Cosmic Angel at Canberra in a handy 35.03, he will get back early on but he does have great track sense and he should figure in the money.
Kicking Rocks is a super star when on song and he is having his first run since Christmas. If he is fully wound up he would be a great winning chance.
Ella Has Class has been in consistent form and she can't be left out, she doesn't win very often but she does hit the line well and she can sneak into the placings.
Top Four: 4 – 6 – 7 – 2
Suggested Bets:
Win bet on Knight Sprite
Boxed Quinella: 2,4,6,7 ($6 for 100%)
Exacta: 4,6,7/2,4,6,7 ($9 for 100%)

1st: $5,450 2nd: $1,550 3rd: $775.

Chica Destacada has been a little inconsistent in recent times but with a keen railer underneath and wide runner on her outside she appears drawn to get all the breaks and she should get every chance to show her best. She has an amazing record over this track and trip and she is a different chaser when she sights the lure early in her races.
Are Jip is back to his brilliant best having won three of his past four in explosive fashion. He can be a little hit or miss early but he should get plenty of room to drive through early and he should be able to put pressure on Chica Destacada throughout.
Bessy Boo is never far away over this track and trip and he will be hitting the line hard, he could be a good anchor for third and fourth in your exotics.
Zipping Midge looks well placed in the pink and with a clean getaway she could roll the top two picks. If she is over the odds she could be worth a saver bet.
Top Four: 4 – 5 – 6 – 8
Suggested Bets:
Win bet on Chica Destacada with William Hill

Jewel Action is a class act on her night and after a steady effort at Dapto over the 600-metre journey she looks better suited back to this journey. She is normally a good beginner and from the red draw she should be able to punch through and hold them out at the first bend. She is likely to be around the even money mark and that appears to be good value for a chaser of her calibre.
Velvet Flame has been racing consistently of late and she should be in the firing line in the early stages, I dont think she can reel the red in but she should be able to fill the quinella spot.
Jazz Cruz has solid place claims. She was a solid 30.15 winner here three runs back and she should get a nice sit just behind the speed for most of the trip.
Top Four: 1 – 4 – 2 – 6
Suggested Bets:
Win bet on Jewel Action
Quinella: 1 to rove with 2,4,6 ($3 for 100%)

Jumble is much better than his form reads and after a couple of months off he should be ready to fire first up. He has a solid record over this journey and when last in work he was taking on some seriously good chasers. He should step evenly tonight and I would then expect him to burn off his opposition as they head into the first turn. The last 30-metres might be a worry but he should have enough petrol in the tank to score.
Good Odds Regina is the clear and obvious danger, she has won two of three here and she has the speed to go with Jumble in the early stages. If she holds him it early it should make for an interesting battle.
Cosmo's King comes here with strong Richmond form and he has shown good early speed in his races. He is facing his toughest test but with a clean getaway he should handle himself quite well.
Top Four: 6 – 4 – 1 – 7
Suggested Bets:
Win bet on Jumble
Boxed Quinella: 1,4,6 ($6 for 100%)
