Race 2- T’Gallant Maiden Handicap 1400m

Pellicle is first up and could fill a place.
Selections
1- Highjacker
4- Bandersnatch
5- Pellicle
Race 3- Reward Hospitality Comcater CG&E Maiden Plate 1200m
Cry Of Achilles was run down late in his only start here in February. He was narrowly beaten at Hawkesbury two starts back and this is a winnable race for him.

Dansk Havn has been placed in his past two starts at Port Macquarie and he has a chance.
Selections
4- Cry Of Achilles
8- Resolving To Win
5- Dansk Havn
Race 4- Senpos Point of Sale F&M Maiden Plate 1200m
Magnolia Power found the 900 too short first up on this track recently. She has been sparingly raced and had excuses when beaten half a length at Canterbury two months ago. The longer trip gives her time to settle.
Bride Of Vengeance has been racing okay on this track and Benfica Maid was narrowly beaten here in October.
Selections
5- Magnolia Power
3- Bride Of Vengeance
2- Benfica Maid

Zoffany’s Lad has a reluctance to go past the leaders in races and this is his first run at 1900m.
Shadow Flight won well here last start.
Selections
3- Lady Evelyn
2- Zoffany’s Lad
1- Shadow Flight

Race 7- DFK Crosbie CG&E Benchmark 64 Handicap 1300m

Bergen bolted in on debut at Kembla recently.
Disgraceful is consistent and he will appreciate the long straight.
Selections
6- Rhythmic Pulse
4- Bergen
2- Disgraceful
Race 8- Bidfood F&M Benchmark 64 Handicap 1300m

Stella Sea Sun is very smart as her record suggests and despite the big weight she will give a good sight.
Franquare is best of the others
Selections
1- Red Chandelier
2- Stella Sea Sun
