6 – Soho Darknstormy

9 – Our Saydie Kay

2 – Ata Rangi

11 – Fairplay

Soho Darknstormy is a newcomer to the Andy Gath stable and has trialled up nicely for his stable debut. He’s already a Group 2 winner in New South Wales and looks like a progressive colt.

BACK: Soho Darknstormy – 2 units (win)

R5 – 8.03pm – BERALDO COFFEE PACE – 1720m

4 – Emily Vincent

10 – Golden Shooz

9 – Momentum Shift

2 – Snow Hunter

Emily Vincent was caught in restricted room last time at Bendigo and still battled on well to be beaten 8.9m. She draws to have a shot at the lead here and I keep thinking about her sizzling front-running win on Bendigo Cup night in January when she speared to the lead and thrashed her rivals in 1:52.2. Could she do something similar here? Okay price to find out.

BACK: 4 Emily Vincent – 1 unit (win)/2 units (place)

R6 – 8.32pm – CNC ROUTER BITS PACE – 1720m

6 – My Ultimate Barney

5 – Collective Works

9 – Bulldog Khan

4 – Edwarde Grange

My Ultimate Barney is yet to win for the Andy Gath stable, but this looks a great chance in a very suitable event. While he is first-up for about a month, I think he might have the class edge to get this done.

BACK: 6 My Ultimate Barney – 2 units (win)

R7 – 9.04pm – YABBY DAM FARMS TROT – 1720m

9 – Tiktok

7 – Kyvalley Michael

8 – Maoris Mac

R9 – 10.09pm – HIP POCKET CASTLEMAINE PACE – 1720m

4 – Micton Mouse

3 – Pickle It

5 – Midnight Desire

1 – My Lucky Rock

Micton Mouse had been running some very brave races before his last-start effort when things looked to have panned out nicely for him, but he was unable to finish off from behind the leader despite the genuine tempo. Happy to try him again in a similar race.

BACK: 4 Micton Mouse – 3 units (win)

QUADDIE

4, 10

5, 6, 9

3, 6, 7, 8, 9
