THOROUGHBREDS
Mornington: Race 3; #8 Outcaster 
A below average maiden, regardless Outcaster appears too short in early markets at $3.4. Her first two career ratings would put her at the head of the market in this race, however her last three runs, including two this preparation have been well short of anything that is deserving of favouritism in this race.
Gosford: Race 4; #9 Bat Out Of Hell
I thought the trial leading into this was just okay and resuming of a 148 day spell I would rather be with race fit horses. Further, I feel this horse will improve stepping up to 1400m or further.
Warwick: Race 6; #5 Rollinwiththeflow
I am happy to risk Rollinwithetheflow at the price. The last start win was good, however now has to jump from a wide gate here in what I feel is a much harder race. Further, jockey Adam Spinks is striking at just 4% his last 50 rides, I would rather be with jockeys in better form than this.
GREYHOUNDS
Sandown Park: Race 2; #8 Got The Cash
Got The Cash for the job done for Betfair Hub followers at Geelong last Friday night but I wouldn't want it over again. It was a workmanlike win but didn't scream back me next time. Off the dreaded Box 8 I'm happy to take him on. It will be tough to get across these rivals cleanly and even if he does, Canya All Class and Jetstream Icon are likely to have very economical runs along the paint and will be hard to beat.
Sandown Park: Race 12; #1 Spectre Buster
Spectre Buster may be over bet from the inside draw here. I prefer him from a wide draw on the provincial type tracks and he may not be suited to this inside draw on a city circuit. He has yet to win at this venue in two attempts.
