THOROUGHBREDS

Coffs Harbour: Race 4; #3 Toyger Down Arrow

Looks a hot race here with a lot of speed over the short trip. At the price, I am leaning to risking TOYGER with this set up. The wide barrier doesnt look like it will do him many favours with a stack of speed below him that can keep him wide in the run. Covering a lot of extra ground over this 800m trip could potentially make the run tough.

Cranbourne: Race 7; #6 Lonely Road Down Arrow

In an even race, I'm happy to take on Lonely Road mainly due to the apprentice jockey on board. The horse has settled midfield or worse at his last two starts and with Blake Shinn, Damian Lane and Craig Williams on the other three chances inside double figures, it looks a stiff test for Danica Munro.

GREYHOUNDS

Sandown Park: Race 2; #3 Paw Mantra Down Arrow

Paw Mantra has been improving with every start and has a good forward pattern which should ensure he is very well backed. However, this is his toughest test to date and if 1,2 or 4 can lob right behind him down the back straight, any of that trio can run Paw Mantra down.

Sandown Park: Race 8; #1 Bagman Down Arrow

Bagman had one of the best maps I've ever seen here last week and won accordingly. He is well drawn in the cherry which should keep him at a Layable price and whilst the map isn't bad, it's no way near as good as last start and has the scorching hot Excavation to deal with this time.
