Saturday June 1

Sandown (tips based on a track rating range of dead 4 to heavy 10)

Race 7 No. 7 Overtake

  • Excellent run first-up when an unlucky fourth to Pago Rock, races well fresh (15 starts for 5-1-0 when first or second-up, compared to 34 starts for 7-5-1 thereafter), loves it wet (15 starts on slow or heavy ground for 7-2-0) and loves the 1200-metre trip (17 starts for 8-2-0, compared to 32 starts for 4-4-1 at all other distances).

Rosehill (tips based on a track rating range of slow 6 to heavy 10)

Race 6 No. 10 Euryale

  • Her form improves significantly after a couple of runs back (10 starts for 1-1-1 when first or second-up, compared to 13 starts for 4-1-2 thereafter), loves a wet track (6 starts on slow or heavy ground for 3-1-0, compared to 17 starts for 2-1-3 on drier surfaces), 5 starts at Rosehill for 3-1-0, including 2 starts at the track/ trip for 1-1-0.

Eagle Farm (tips based on a track rating range of dead 4 to slow 7)

Race 5 No. 9 Classics

  • Excellent record when fresh (8 starts for 4-2-0 when first or second-up, 6 starts for 1-0-0 thereafter), strong record at the trip (5 starts for 2-1-0), drawn well, strong tempo from the likes of Satin Shoes, Funtantes and Bound To Blush should suit her run-on style.
