Eagle Farm race 1 (1600m) 11:38 am

1. YET HE MOVES resumed from a spell and won a weaker race with a bigger weight last start. Must be fitter now and did run fast enough time to warrant a big thought here.

2. THIS’LLBETHEONE is 3rd up here and is ready to pounce. Gets a claim too which is a big help in this competitive field.

3. KADALL is very fit and has placed 5 of past 6 starts. Tougher here but that consistency can’t be ignored.

Tips: 4 – 2 – 6

Recruitment Cl 3 Plate

Eagle farm Race 2 (1400m) 12:13 pm

1. Under the plate conditions, RAZORS looks a good thing. Is better than these.

2. RUNWITHTHETIDE is a bit in and out but did win 2 starts back and is worthy of a quinella bet here.

3. The bottom horse here, VELOZES is impoving with every run and did win an easier race last start so is in form.

Tips: 6 – 4 – 11

Eagle Farm race 3 (1200m) 12:48 pm

1. LORDSTER returned to racing with a good, solid win then did nothing last start. That happens a lot and the 3rd run in is always the best. Sooo, with a 3kg claim I think he returns to form here.

2. Lots of money has come in for BEREZKA who is veryu fit. This is 5th start this time up and was impressiuve and unlucky last start when 2nd this compoany. Bad draw though.

3. ANTONITO resumes here and has won first up in thje past before so should be running home.

Tips: 1 – 13 – 2

Eagle Farm Race 4 (1400m) 1:23 pm

1. Top trainer Rob Heathcote can quinella this race. Which way, hmmm, that’s the $64 question. I think the very fit SULTRY SIREN wins with Taylor Marshall on top. She has won 2 of her past 4 and is holding her form very well.

2. Stablemate CASPERNOVA is 5th up and has placed 3 times already. Has the perfect draw, is very honest and will be right in this especially if he sees his stablemate up on the lead too.

3. FREE CARRY resumes here and was the model of consistency in slightly easier races last prep. Backed to run well.

Tips: 10 – 5 – 7

Sky Racing BM 78

Eagle farm Race 5 (2400m) 1:58 pm

1. All the smart overnight money has come in for FIOPROSPERO. Drawn perfectly, is in great form, placed at past 3 this grade and looms largest.

2. The great draw brings BENGAL BOY into the piucture. Another who is ultra fit and he has been well supported at each way odds overnight. That can’t be overlooked.

3. Chris waller saddles BITOFTHEBLARNEY another well drawn who is in great form. Last 3 runs have been excellent for this. Is honest.

Tips: 3 – 5 – 9

Mekka 3YO

Eagle farm race 6 (1000m) 2:33 pm

1. Tony Gollan’s filly IMPERVIOUS resumes here after showing a good bit of talent last prep. She was placed this grade in town and her win was at Ippy where she strolled in. Two recent trials have been very impressive. Looks well placed in this. Especially with the claim.

2. This is a fair bit harder than at grafton on debut but ZAINDARA strolled in there winning by nearly 5 lengths. Sure to have come on.

3. MILESTONE also resumes here. Ran in a stakes race last start beaten 3 lengths. drawn badly but has some class about her.

Tips: 3 – 10 -9

Open Hcp

Eagle farm race 7 (1400m) 3:12 pm

1. He may not be racing as well as he can, but if the best CHRYSAOR turns up he wins this comfortably. Is very fit and on past efforts is by far the best horse in the race.

2. Former Godolphin horse AMUR looks well placed and is 3rd up for new trainer Tony Gollan. Made ground for 4th last run under a big weight. Can show up.

3. His stablemate KRONENBOURG resumes here and will get back but this isn’t over strong and he should rattle home late for 3rd.

Tips: 1 – 6 – 3

Spring Carnival NMW

Eagle Farm race 8 (1200m) 3:48 pm

1. END ASSEMBLY was weak late last start after being on speed, but to be fair it was a stronger race. Gets in here really well after the claim and could lead all the way.

2. The money has come in for GOSPEL GIRL who is 3rd up after two really good placings. Should find a nice spot and is right in this.

3. BRAVELY has been up a while but is racing well enough to warrant a place ticket int his.

Tips: 2 – 16 – 8

Eagle farm race 9 (1000m) 4:27 pm

1. It has been a good while since FLYING DESTINY won a race but he looks well placed here especially with the 3kg claim. Likely goes forward from this draw and will be on pace all the way. Doing his racing in tough Sydney events of late. Big show.

2. BELEGATO is in fine form and his honesty will make him a major threat also.

3. EMPEROR has won his past 2 starts and also gets a 3kg allowance. Drawn to get a superb run.

Tips: 2 – 3- 1
