Saturday June 21
Moonee Valley (tips based on a track rating range dead 4 to slow 7)
Race 2 No. 4 Legcut
Loves the 1000m (11 starts for 4-2-1, including 2 wins from 4 starts at the track/ trip), won 3 of her last 7 starts overall, drawn to get an easy run in transit.
Race 6 No. 1 Brambles
His 2 runs back from a long break (both carrying 60 kilos or more) have been very promising, improves with racing (6 starts for 4-1-1 when third-up or further into a prep), drops to 57 kilos third-up and meets The Cleaner 4 kilos better for their last meeting, 5 previous starts at the mile for 2-1-1.
Randwick (tips based on a track rating range Good 2 to Dead 5)
Race 8 No. 2 Unanimously
Forgive his last start flop on a heavy track and his form line this prep reads 2212, this is his best trip (9 starts for 4-1-0), meets Testarhythm 3 kilos better for being beaten a length 2 starts ago, drawn well.
Morphettville (tips based on a track rating range dead 4 to slow 7)
Race 5 No. 6 Classy Chloe
Gets back to her preferred distance (17 starts for 6-4-0) after being unplaced over 1000m last start, won at this trip 2 starts ago, won 2 of 5 races on slow ground so rain-affected going is no problem, may be able to get a cheap lead from barrier 2.
