Race 5: SAMIAM SEUSSIE is in great form with two wins and a second for us in recent runs. Came with a nicELy timed run to beat Funtonic last time out at Ellerslie, steps up to G3 today and looks at cert place at least at $5.
BET: 5 units ew, if the money comes 8 unit win

Race 8: BELLATRIX BLACK was impressive two weeks back, and has started her career in fine style. The step up to 2400m should suit, and she’s a threat at $10 even up in grade… In the same race is ASPEN COLORADO , impressive two back breaking maidens, then a reasonable fourth to today’s fav. Place chance at $12…

Race 7: BERMADEZ is one of my fav blackbookers, and Olly produced a superb ride on him here two weeks ago to win at $4 for us over Rose Quartz. Steps back up to the mile today (he’s a t&d winner here previously) and this looks like a race in two here, with Gentleman Roy the other obvious contender. Both got great stats for this, but we stick with our boy at $3.60

Race 8: DAUMIER got up at Caulfield for us 3 weeks back at a juicy $21, he’s the same price today. SEBONACK wasn’t that far behind him in fourth in that race after a classy win on debut, $19 today. SHE’S EXTREME produced a big finish a week ago and can on with it, $7 on offer for her…
