SELECTIONS: SEA FURY (9), IM DOWNBYTHESEASIDE (6), WHERE IS WOODY (7), POPCORNFRIDAY (1)
OVERVIEW: SEA FURY (9) was flying earlier in the year, but his last few runs haven't been up to that standard, at least numerically, as you could make a few small excuses. This is the most winnable race he's been in for a while, and the tick-over trial was good enough to suggest he's on track. He can bounce back against these.
IM DOWNBYTHESEASIDE (6) was a good winner when able to lead from the same draw last campaign and looked to be progressing well, getting up in class quickly. This race looks much more suitable than his first-up assignment, and with added fitness, he will be hard to beat. WHERE IS WOODY (7) switches to one of Victoria's leading stables, and while the draw is no luxury, he's normally a one-run type, so may drift back and, with the right tempo, finish well. POPCORNFRIDAY (1) and BRINGUSJOY (2) would look for the lead but would need little pressure thereafter, while FIRE MARSHALL (8) is dependent on how that all works out in front of him. They're all worth keeping safe.
BACK: SEA FURY (9) – 2 units (win)
