Australian thoroughbred TAB meetings are today held at Hawkesbury, Tatura, Rockhampton, York and Pakenham.

HAWKESBURY: RACE 4 @ 2:05 PM

EQUIPAGE (5) classy Godolphin filly resuming after showing plenty of promise last time in. Looks primed for this with two searching trials and drawn to break her maiden status here. The one to beat. CHOICE LEGEND (4) finished runner-up on two occasions last time in and returns from a lengthy spell. Two recent trials were solid and race experience will take her a long way here. One of the leading players. TRUE AMOR (12) two-year-old I Am Invincible colt from a Fastnet Rock mare on debut for the John O'Shea stable. Has shown ability in four trials and looks good enough to take on the older rivals. BRAVEHEART (10) Colt by I Am Invincible out of Octavia on debut for the Snowden stable. Has looked sharp in his last two trials and gets his chance from the good gate.
SELECTIONS: Equipage to win.

TATURA: RACE 4 @ 2:30 PM

LORD PROTECTOR (5) has been lining up in tougher maiden company than this of late. Looks ideally placed and should give this a shake. VANCOUVER RAIN (11) was a major disappointment at Wangaratta last time. Previous run at Deniliquin was full of merit. Strips fitter and cannot be dismissed. DYNAMIC DEEL (2) has been out of the money in past couple of assignments over a longer trip. Comes back in trip this time and cannot be left out of calculations. GOYATHLAY (3) led them up in town last time and tired in run home. Is much better placed here and improvement is on the cards.
SELECTIONS: Back Lord Protector to win.

ROCKHAMPTON: RACE 6 @ 3:35 PM

MURRAJONG ROAD (1) resumed in good order and then won this grade/trip at Mackay. The rail should advantage and he has more to give. Fitter and is capable of going back-to-back. KING SAMUEL (3) missed a nose in the same contest and may have been a touch unlucky. He will be hitting the line again. TOUR DE FIELD (8) is an improver who deserved the Maiden win before settling too far back after from a wide gate. The step up to the mile is likely to suit and Wiggins is a key jockey booking.
SELECTIONS: Sticking with Murrajong Road.

YORK: RACE 7 @ 6:00 PM

CANGGU (9) won impressively two back before a disappointing effort at Pinjarra most recently. Back in trip is no issue as he broke his maiden over this course and distance. Happy to overlook his last start, as if he gets back to his prior form he should take plenty of catching in this. LOOK HERE PUNK (3) got the job done over this trip at Ascot to break his maiden last time out. He should be at the peak of his powers now fourth-up and this looks a nice race to progress into. Can build on the last start win. MYSTERY BULLET (7) disappointed last start after a good win at Geraldton two back. Pike hops in the saddle this time and this looks easier than the race he was in last start. Can slot in midfield and be powering over the top late. LUCKY HEART (2) is some niggle back in trip but he did jump favourite here on April 1. Worth keeping safe.
SELECTIONS: Canggu can bounce back to form.

PAKENHAM: RACE 3 @ 6:15 PM

LOS ALAMOSS (11) took her time to work through her gears here on debut a fortnight ago but eventually finished nicely into third. Is sure to have taken benefit from the hit out and is expected to prove very tough to stop this time. SHOCK (6) was an eye-catcher when last sighted race day, finishing strongly into fifth in a blanket finish. Should've matured during his break and is expected to make his presence felt. BEAUTIFUL VIEW (1) continues to knock on the door but is just struggling to put a full race together. Carries a fitness edge and is drawn well. Have to consider. EYE KACHING (9) stuck on soundly into a midfield finish when resuming off a very long break at Mornington. Treading lightly second-up as he steps out the extra 200m but should be kept safe. The resuming KUROSHINZO (4) looks best of the rest.
SELECTIONS: Los Alamoss the one to beat.
