Race 1
2 Got The Chocolates

Looked a class above when winning a trial earlier this month and beat a race-winner in the process. Scratchings take the field down to three and should be able to dominate from the top and do exactly as the name does suggest.
Selections: 2-3-5

Race 2
10 Father Time

Well established trotter who is converting from age group racing into the maiden ranks and won't be held here from long. Bit of work to be done from the inside of the second row early but there's sure to be some gaps at some point to negate and get into clear air. Best wins but needs luck.
Selections: 10-3-7-9-1

Race 3
10 Philadelphia Filly

Not a lot of luck in many of the recent performances, but is a bit of an opportunist anyway so that's going to happen. Needs some room from the inside draw here but with it is more than good enough to storm home over the top of them and get a big slice.
Selections: 10-2-8-6-7

Race 4
5 Straight Flush

Handy mare who looks pretty well placed here considering some of the fields she's been taking on recently. The second two starts back to Toby Tom B really captures the attention and anything close to that here and she's going to go a long way towards winning.
Selections: 5-3-10-2-11

Race 5
3 Killinchy Kid

On speed runner drawn up perfectly here to make the most of the opportunity. Loves to get rolling but does have a couple of tricks up the sleeve. Could lead up here and run away from them quite easily and if left alone it becomes even more likely.
Selections: 3-8-6-1-10

Race 6
9 Natives Inferno

Punching a gap late at The Mot on Sunday and not that far away from them. Might be better suited on the all weather with the high speed that's there. Has always looked pretty capable and a run somewhere near to the best possible would get the job done today.
Selections: 9-13-1-11-5

Race 7
11 Bondi Lustre

Hasn't had much in the luck column of late and was desperately unlucky at Motukarara on Sunday. Should get a nice enough run through here from the second line and if able to find cover and be close enough turning for home can play a major role.
Selections: 11-8-5-10-2

Best: 5 Straight Flush (Race 4)
Next: 9 Natives Inferno (Race 6)
Value: 3 Killinchy Kid (Race 5)
