WITTENS IRRIGATION & DESIGN HANDICAP
Hoya Destroyer
SPECIALThis horse boasts the best recent form with a win and multiple placings, coupled with the highest place percentage in the field. Drawing barrier 1 with Steven Parnham aboard makes it a top contender, despite a lower win percentage overall.
Come On Emma Natika Riordan
SPECIALConsistently placing in recent starts, this mare has a strong place percentage and draws well in barrier 4. While a low win rate is a concern, her consistent form suggests she's ready to break through or at least feature prominently.
Zorbrist
SPECIALComing off a third-place finish, Zorbrist shows some recent improvement and has a solid career place percentage. The Parnham/Parnham combination from barrier 3 gives it an each-way chance, but overall form is inconsistent.
Extreme Love Holly Nottle
While having the highest career earnings, recent form has been patchy, though a second and third place in its last two starts offer a glimmer of hope. Barrier 2 and Mitchell Pateman are positives, but consistency is a question mark.
Nickelplay
This horse has a poor win and place percentage and its recent form string is uninspiring, with only one minor placing from its last six starts. While from a top stable and drawing well, it needs to show significant improvement.
Who Saz Yes
Recent form is very poor, with several unplaced runs and a low career place percentage, making it hard to recommend. Despite a good barrier, it appears outclassed in this field.
DRUMMOND GOLF HANDICAP
Peaceful Ruler
SPECIALThis horse boasts an impressive 67% win rate and 100% place rate from only three starts, including a last-start win. With a top jockey, excellent barrier, and strong recent form, it's the clear pick for this race.
Sky Poet Tash Faithfull Daniel &
SPECIALA debut winner, Sky Poet shows promise with a perfect 100% win record. While stepping up in class and distance, the good barrier and potential for improvement make it a strong contender.
So Much Serenity
SPECIALDespite a lower win percentage, this horse has shown glimpses of ability, including a win four starts back and a second place. With William Pike aboard from a decent barrier, it could be an each-way chance if it finds its best form.
Swift Talker Clint Johnston-porter
A winner earlier in its career, Swift Talker's recent form has been inconsistent, including an unplaced run last start. The good barrier and top jockey give it a chance to improve, but it needs to find more consistency.
Media Club
This horse is yet to break its maiden but has placed in 50% of its starts, suggesting some ability. While it's a long shot for the win, it could sneak into the placings with a clean run from barrier six.
Playing Free Laqdar Ramoly
With only one win from eight starts and inconsistent recent form, this horse faces a tough challenge here. While the inside barrier is a plus, it needs a significant turnaround to be competitive against this field.
Shimmery Star
This horse has shown very little in its three career starts, with no wins or placings and low prizemoney. A wide barrier and poor form make it difficult to recommend, even with Chris Parnham aboard.
Our Mane Man
Having finished unplaced in both career starts, this horse has shown no form to suggest it will be competitive in this race. With a wide barrier and limited experience, it appears to be a rank outsider.
MC POLYTRACK MAIDEN
Divine Mirage
SPECIALDivine Mirage showed more promise on debut with a 4th place finish, indicating better natural ability than its rival. With the benefit of that race experience and a good barrier draw, it is the stronger contender here and likely to improve further.
Afireofgidgeecoals Lucy Fiore
SPECIALThis runner showed little on debut, finishing last, which is a concern. However, the inside barrier and a top jockey in Lucy Fiore give it some hope for improvement in its second start, suggesting it could be an each-way chance if it finds significant progression.
G&A LOMBARDI PTY LTD MAIDEN
Newhaven Prince Jarrad Noske
SPECIALThis horse has shown good promise in its short career, placing second last start over 1400m which suggests the 1500m will suit. With a good barrier and Tiarnna Noske retaining the ride, it looks the most likely winner in this maiden field.
Magic Carats Alex Hearn
SPECIALDespite a long career without a win, this horse consistently places, with 38% place rate and recent close seconds. The inside barrier and Brent Larsson's experience give it a strong chance to break through, though its win strike rate is a concern.
Invasore
SPECIALBoasting a 50% place rate from 8 starts, Invasore has shown ability to run into the placings, including recent thirds. Jason Whiting is a top jockey, and from barrier 2, this horse is a genuine contender if it can find its best form.
Queen Selyse Holly Nottle
Recently placed second over 1400m, indicating good current form and suitability for the distance. While the wide barrier is a slight negative, her consistent place record makes her a strong each-way prospect in this field.
Bambun Girl Madi Derrick
With only four starts, this horse showed improvement last start with a second-place finish over 1400m. The step up to 1500m could be beneficial, making her an interesting each-way chance with further natural progression.
Luna Ballet
This horse has shown flashes of ability, including a second-place finish two starts back, but has been inconsistent. The 1500m might be a good distance, and with a mid-range barrier, it could surprise if everything goes its way.
Ginger Fizz Taj Dyson
While showing a recent third-place finish, the overall form string is poor with no wins or places from seven starts. This horse needs significant improvement to be competitive, but the recent placing offers a glimmer of hope.
Princess Toronado
This horse is having only its second career start and finished well back on debut. While improvement is possible, it's a big ask to compete strongly in a maiden field at 1500m with so little experience.
Billionaire's Row Lucy Fiore Grant &
With two unplaced runs to date, this horse has shown little to suggest it will be a factor here. Needs to show significant improvement to be considered, but the wide barrier and lack of form are concerning.
Impending Lass Rocky Cheung
The form string is consistently poor, with no placings from six starts and finishing well down the field in most runs. It's difficult to make a case for this horse against the rest of the field.
I'm Back Baby Ava Catarino
With 18 starts and no placings, this horse has demonstrated very little ability to compete at this level. The form string is consistently poor, making it a rank outsider in this race.
STATEWIDE OIL HANDICAP
Tycoon Dreamer
SPECIALThis horse has a strong recent win and a high Win% for its limited career, suggesting good potential in this class. The inside barrier and Chris Parnham aboard further bolster its chances, making it the top pick.
Melody Fair
SPECIALDespite only one career start, Melody Fair showed promise with a third-place finish and has a perfect Place% from that run. The good barrier and Steven Parnham are positives, indicating it's ready to challenge here.
Mr Kissinger
SPECIALMr Kissinger has a recent win and the formidable William Pike in the saddle, which is a significant advantage in any race. While recent form can be a bit mixed, Pike's expertise from barrier two makes him a strong contender.
Publicise Lucy Fiore
A recent win shows capability, and a 20% Win% is respectable for this field. However, the overall limited career starts and inconsistent form string place it in the each-way category, with potential for improvement.
Earl It Is
Earl It Is has a win in its form string but is generally inconsistent with a low Win% and Place%. The inside barrier is a plus, but the overall form suggests it's more of a place chance than a winning one.
Rosentrea Holly Nottle
This horse boasts a recent win but has a very low career Win% and Place% over many starts, indicating inconsistency. While the win is encouraging, the overall record suggests it's a roughie at best in this field.
Kleva Conned Tash Faithfull
A single win in 14 starts and generally poor recent form string makes this horse a long shot. Despite having a win, its overall consistency and low Win/Place% do not inspire confidence.
Wonshot
With zero wins and zero places from 17 career starts, Wonshot has shown no ability to compete at this level. Its form is consistently poor, making it a rank outsider with very little chance.
SCHWEPPES HANDICAP
New Target Keshaw Dhurun
SPECIALNew Target is a lightly raced horse with an impressive 50% win rate, including two recent wins before a spell. The good barrier and the presence of Neville Parnham suggest it's well-placed to continue its winning ways, despite the step up in class.
Spicy Thang
SPECIALSpicy Thang has shown good recent form with two wins and a third in its last five starts, indicating it's in excellent condition. While the barrier is slightly wider than ideal, Chris Parnham's booking adds significant confidence, making it a strong contender.
So Immaculate Brayden Gaerth
This horse boasts a decent win percentage and has shown flashes of good form, including a recent win over 1000m. The wide barrier and a last start unplaced run are minor concerns, but it has the ability to be competitive in this field.
Door Buster Holly Watson
This horse boasts a decent win percentage and has shown flashes of good form, including a recent win over 1000m. The wide barrier and a last start unplaced run are minor concerns, but it has the ability to be competitive in this field.
Niccimota Chanel Cooper
This horse has a solid career record and place percentage, indicating consistency. However, recent form has been mixed, and while the inside barrier is a plus, it might be looking for a slightly longer trip to hit peak form.
Scenic George Clint Johnston-porter Daniel &
With only one career win and recent form showing a decline, Scenic George faces a tough task here. Despite a good barrier, its win percentage is low for this class, making it a long shot.
Asuriito Amy Jo Hayes
Asuriito's recent form is very poor, with multiple unplaced runs and a low career place percentage. From a wide barrier, it's difficult to see this horse making an impact against a competitive field.
UNITE RESOURCING HANDICAP
Productive Clint Johnston-porter Daniel &
SPECIALProductive boasts the best recent form with a win and two seconds in its last five starts, indicating it's racing in career-best condition. The inside barrier and strong place percentage make it a leading contender in this field.
Aitch Montana Holly Watson
SPECIALAitch Montana has a recent win and a decent place percentage, suggesting it has the ability to perform well at this level. While recent form is a little mixed, the good barrier draw and a win at this distance make it a strong each-way chance.
Tassort We Want Jarrad Noske
SPECIALTassort We Want has a good win percentage for this field and showed promise with a recent win and a third-place finish. Despite a couple of unplaced runs, the horse is lightly raced and could improve further, making it a solid contender.
Miss Veuve Ava Catarino
Miss Veuve has a win and two seconds in its form string, showing it has the capability to run well, and a good place percentage. However, recent unplaced runs and a slightly lower career prizemoney suggest inconsistency, placing it as an each-way hope.
Grandad's Adiction Natika Riordan
Grandad's Adiction has a win and a second within its last six starts, indicating some ability, but recent form includes two zeros. The low win and place percentages, combined with recent unplaced efforts, make it a roughie with some upside if it recaptures its best.
Myzoom Laqdar Ramoly
Myzoom's form is inconsistent with a recent third-place finish but also several unplaced runs and a low win percentage. While it has shown glimpses of ability, the overall form string suggests it will need significant improvement to challenge here.
Highly Spoken Victoria Corver
Highly Spoken has a win in its career but its overall win and place percentages are low, and recent form is poor with mostly unplaced runs. While it has a good barrier, it appears to be struggling for form and faces a tough task.
Universal Impact Rocky Cheung
Universal Impact has yet to win a race from nine starts and has a very low place percentage, indicating a lack of class. Its recent form is poor, and it is highly unlikely to feature against this field.
