Quick Analysis:

I reckon Global Goal presents some decent enough value, but I’ll be taking her to place, just to be safe. It’s a fairly open field for the Group 2 Tea Rose Stakes, but I think Global Goal will be looking at bigger and better things, like the Group 1 Flight Stakes. She finished third in the Silver Shadow Stakes last time out, and has had a tick-over trial since (winning that). Dylan Gibbons sticks, and they’ll enjoy the extra 200m here.

Quick Analysis:

The Group 1 Underwood Stakes presents a small field, and it’s hard to go past the favourite, Cosmic Crusader. He goes from a 1,400m last time out to a 1,800m here, which is a similar pattern he has followed in the past with great success. Draws to get a great run, and William Pike is in the saddle once again. All signs point towards Cosmic Crusader locking down his second Group 1 victory today.

Quick Analysis:

We’re treated to two Group 1s today, and here we have the Sir Rupert Clarke Stakes. Evaporate gets an absolute horror of a draw, but we’re also getting a good price, so I’ll stick with him to finish top three. He is looking for back-to-back wins after a nice victory at Sandown Hillside last time out. Blake Shinn has been on board for both runs so far this prep, and sticks once again.

Stats and Insights

  • Portinari has placed twice from four runs this preparation at metro level and comes from a respected stable. She’s capable of popping up there at decent enough odds in Race 4 at Caulfield.
  • Boniface won at Randwick last start on a Soft track and comes from a strong camp. He can handle the rise in class in Race 6 at Randwick.
  • Autumn Glow won at Randwick first-up and is a track specialist with seven wins at the course. She doesn’t have any value about her, but is the clear top pick in Race 8 at Randwick.
