SELECTIONS: PETRACCA (8), TUAPEKA LOU (1), DIAMOND ECLIPSE (7), ALOT LIKE LOUIE (4)
OVERVIEW: PETRACCA (8) hasn’t raced since August 2024 but the 2023 Victoria Derby champion recorded a sensational mile rate of 1.52.1 when he won a trial at Melton last week so a bold showing is expected. TUAPEKA LOU (1) is a classy New South Wales pacer, which won four races in succession prior to finishing unplaced in the Carousel Final at Menangle. He is ideally drawn and will take catching. DIAMOND ECLIPSE (7) settled in the second half of the field and produced a strong finish when fourth behind Kiss at Melton last week. He recorded a quick mile rate of 1.52.2 when he won prior and is a place hope if he gains the right luck from his poor draw. ALOT LIKE LOUIE (4) parked on the outside of the leader throughout and proved to be too strong at Shepparton last week. This race is much harder but he is worth thought in multiple combinations.
EARLY SPEED: 1 (likely leader), 2,4,5,6,7
