OVERVIEW: BETTORLEFTALONE (6) has gone down as an odds-on favourite in his past two runs, but he didn't race poorly. Rather, he simply found one better on both occasions. This looks to be the most suitable grade he's seen in some time, and from this draw, he can show his customary speed and strength, look to find the top and potentially run a time the others can't match.

MOMENTUM SHIFT (3) may represent some value in this type of race and gets a positive barrier draw to map well. He's often had little luck, but he's a must for multiples to put some juice into them. MISTER JIMARINGLE (2) is a quick beginner and was a winner two runs back in easier grade when he sat parked and proved too strong. Herbertson seems to get the best out of him. IM DUSTEE (5) is a model of consistency, not missing the podium in his past four starts. The draw is a little sticky, but he warrants consideration. There are a few others who have claims but will need things to work out, including LOU WILL (4), MASON JOLIE (10) and NEW YORKER (11).

BACK: BETTORLEFTALONE (6) – 2.5 units (win)

OVERVIEW: OWEN THE SAINTS (3) looks well suited here, dropping back in grade and well drawn to map positively over the short trip at a track where he has a good strike rate. His last four starts have been against much better-quality opposition, where he's acquitted himself well. He can afford to be assertive against these and prove hard to beat.

KEAYANG SANTIAGO (6) is a quick beginner and will be hustling for the top here over the mile. He tends to overdo things and knock up late, but with a positive map, he has claims. OUR CHEEKY DEVIL (1) is a veteran who may not have great numerical form, but he'll appreciate this set-up from the inside draw. The shorter trips are where he runs best, and he's a great value play for the exotics. ATOMIK GO ANNA (8) is a 2yo filly who gives away experience here, but she does have ability. The issue is that she can't draw a barrier at the moment, although she's going okay. MAJOR ORION (10) was disappointing last time but was a winner prior after a succession of solid performances, so keep him safe despite the draw. LEONARD (7) can show good speed but will need plenty to go right to secure a decent map.

BACK: OWEN THE SAINTS (3) – 2 units (win)

OVERVIEW: WHERES WOOD WOOD (6) has made a habit this season of winning when she drops back to this grade, but overall, she's never raced better than she has this year. She's a versatile type who can show speed or come with one run, so despite the sticky draw, she has options. Tasmyn Potter also has an excellent record on her.

MISS PIGGY WIGGY (3) was unlucky not to win here last week. She went back to last from a wide draw, sliced through the field late and was held up at a crucial stage before narrowly missing victory. She's hard to catch with her gate manners, but if she decides to go forward and lead, she'll take some catching. MAURLEN GRACE (1) was much better last week and now gets a soft draw, so with added fitness and a top driver, she looks a natural improver. JUST MY LUCK (9) finally broke through for his maiden last start and looks to be putting it all together recently, so if he continues that trajectory, he's in the mix again. KRAKEY (5) was able to lead from a similar draw last week and was sound in running 3rd. He's always thereabouts, so keep him safe. CAPTAINS RUSH (2) also has the benefit of a run under her belt and has claims from the soft draw in this type of line-up.

OVERVIEW: ELIANA (8) looked to get every chance here last week from the pole over the short trip, but to be fair, they did run decent time for this grade. I'm willing to give her another shot, given she trails behind the main danger, who will be stamped urgent early, and should get the cover she needs to strike late.

ALTO CORAGGIO (1) has been tipped on top nearly every start I've found him, and he's been runner-up on each occasion. He's a flashy-looking type who presents as a decent prospect, so perhaps with more maturity, he can put it all together. He has gate speed and looks to get the right map. MADAM SASS (2) is a 2yo filly who went for a run up in NSW and performed fairly when she was able to lead from the pole. Her trials prior were okay, and although she's drawn down low, the map is a little uncertain. TOUCH OF REALITY (4) often likes to show gate speed, and there are a few drawn underneath her on this occasion, but she's ever-consistent, so must be included.

OVERVIEW: OUR MYSTERY BET (4) may not have the most impressive numerical form, but he drops back to the most suitable grade he's raced in for a while. He's a grinding type who'll be obliged to race forward here over the short trip, and although there are others who will be faster off the arm into position, he can wear them down late.

ZEUSS (7) was a winner last time after some nice efforts for the new camp and now gets a challenging draw to overcome. However, his form is better than most, and with the right luck, he can be in the finish. THE LADYBIRD (8) got a sweet run and was too good in a winnable race last time, and although the draw is tricky, this doesn't present as much harder. MYNAMEISRUBY (3) and HIGHVIEW HAMMER (5) are the speed horses off the arm and most likely to get the right positions, but they've had plenty of chances all the same.

BACK: OUR MYSTERY BET (4) – 1.5 units (win)

OVERVIEW: YELLA (4) gets me in every time because he's been so well placed on his best form but just hasn't been able to crack it. The winner of his last race went very quickly and has since won again, so the form out of that race is strong. On that line, he should be given another chance to atone. He cap map well from this favourable draw and get every chance.

TREACHEROUSTIMES (1) led up from the same draw last week and was disappointing, but this is slightly easier, so on his best form and likely map, he can improve on that effort. BERYLS BOOTS (9) hasn't had much go his way in his past couple, but his form prior was solid. He has a back-row draw to contend with again, but he's in the mix. JOEYS HANGOVER (5) and SALSBOY (6) were in the same race last start and not far away from one another, but the draws are a little different now, while STELLAR QUEEN (8) gets a soft draw and has minor claims.

BACK: YELLA (4) – 1.5 units (win)

OVERVIEW: ALDEBARAN DENBAY (7) has been terrific for trainer Brooke McPherson, racing tractably and consistently and delivering strong performances at this level and track. The wide draw is no luxury, but even if the lead isn't there, he sat parked last week and ran well. Tasmyn Potter's claim helps him get in front of a few key rivals, and she had a good feel for him last start.

SETTLE THE BILL (9) is an interesting runner. She was a beauty here last season, winning plenty of races, but then seemed to lose her way a little when she went up in grade and changed stables. Now she's back with Laura Wilson, and if the trial margin is any indication, she could be primed for a return to form. STRAIGHT TO THETOP (8) was in a good position before trotting poorly over the last 400m, but she's better than that and can bounce back from the soft draw. STARLIGHT RED (1), GIGGLE WATER (3) and ATTRACTED (4) all have place claims from their favourable draws.

BACK: ALDEBARAN DENBAY (7) – 2 units (win)

OVERVIEW: MASTER MIKI (4) doesn't have the best numerical form, but his best has seen him become a three-time winner at this track. His win here in September was from a wider draw and showed he can run times that others have to lift to match. Riley Pace is an in-form young driver, which is a major asset in these concession races.

ASHANTE WARRIOR (2) has had four runs now for the astute Ashwood stable and was good winning his maiden first up for them. He hasn't been far away since in what looked to be tougher company than he meets here. He can show gate speed and get the right run, and against this class, he can bounce back into the winner's circle. ARMOURY (5) is the stablemate, a 3yo filly who's had only one run for the camp and led before fading at Mildura. She'll need to improve on that but is capable of doing so with more time in her new surroundings. COLBY ART (1) was a good winner in an easier race here last week, making the most of a soft draw and running good enough time to be in the finish here.

OVERVIEW: SHINELIKETHESUN (3) has won only one race from 19 starts, but you could make a case that she should have been in the winner's circle a lot more often if she trotted more consistently. That was the situation at Melton last week, where she would have gone close to scoring if she'd trotted the whole way. Take her on trust, as her best is good enough.

CLASSIC FAIR (9) got it all wrong as favourite last time at Echuca, galloping at the start and in running, yet still hanging in there for 4th. He won on debut and wasn't too bad two runs back, so there's ability there to keep him safe. ALDEBARAN MISTIQUE (4) started favourite last time out and didn't have a lot of luck before jumping it off. She was doing okay prior to that. MOONSHINE LOUIE (2) has run some decent races against a couple of smart ones and looks reliably gaited of late, which is an asset in a race of this type. ALABAMA MAY (6) has shown ability at times and has been freshened up for this with no trial, so she may need the run, but don't dismiss her. THE WRECKING BALL (1) is a first starter who's trialled okay, so is worth monitoring for any betting moves.
