BEST BET
TENTYRIS (R6 No.1):Tentyris just missed in the Group 1 Blue Diamond before a fast-finishing win in the Group 2 Todman Stakes against a quality field that included the likes of Wodeton, Beiwacht and Tycoon Star. He has won down the straight and has trialled well for his return.
NEXT BEST
WAR MACHINE (R9 No.1): Stradbroke Handicap winner War Machines resumes in the Gilgai Stakes and needs to win to attract interest from Everest slot-holders. He won three in a row last prep – arguably should have been unbeaten – culminating in that Group 1 victory.
SHE’S AN ARTIST (R1 No.12): She’s An Artist pulled up with a slow recovery first-up where she raced close to a fast speed and hit the wall in the last 100m to be beaten by 2½ lengths. She should improve off that run and is worth another chance.
LAY OF THE DAY
ROSBERG (R6 No.6): It takes a talented horse to win a Listed three-year-old race on debut, but Rosberg will need to take a big step up here against some smart opposition.
THE JOCKEY
SHE’S AN ARTIST (R1 No.12 – $2.60), RICH ON BUBBLES (R2 No.6 – $14), KAKKOII (R3 No.5 – $12), BELLAZAINE (R4 No.1 – $4.80), MISS ARIA (R5 No.6 – $10), INKARUNA (R6 No.9 – $8), ANTINO (R8 No.1 – $9.50), WAR MACHINE (R9 No.1 – $4).
