THOROUGHBREDS
Randwick: Race 5; #2 Sounds Unusual

Good competitive race here with some stronger light weight hopes in the race. Given those lighter weighted horses here in this race, this feels like it could prove a tough race for top weight SOUNDS UNUSUAL. He has been in good form this prep, but has to handle a big 61kgs as well as deal with the extreme wide barrier. His form stacks up well but looks a risk at the current price as favourite.
Flemington: Race 4; #1 Taken

Taken is very consistent and off his ratings profile, he clearly deserves his place at the top of the market. But I thought he had absolutely everything in favour last start and with the predicted off-rail pattern today, I doubt he gets the same favours.
Ipswich: Race 3; #2 Bestower

Continues to find a few better and I think she may run second again, she is under the odds in an open staying race.
HARNESS
Melton: Race 8; #5 Jilliby Willow

Quality mare but this is a big ask fresh & looks in need of racing.
