San Domenico Stakes
BUY STAR TURN at $3.4
"The money is already coming for the towering Hawkes colt, who has trialled like a serious horse this time in. Analysts think the 4kg turnaround on CAPITALIST from the Golden Slipper could be enough."

P.B. Lawrence Stakes
SELL LORD OF THE SKY at $5.5
"He got a cruisy time in the lead last start and steps up to 1,400 metres this time. Always capable of getting a stitch and stopping, selling him to place could be a smart move."

Caulfield Race 2
BUY KANIANA at $3.1
"The topweight RUSTIC MELODY may not be suited to Caulfield and CHOICE may want it even wetter than this week. Betting on Weir's consistent mare is shaping as the play."
Rosehill Race 4
SELL GOT UNDERS at $7
"He's a tough on-pace type that hardly ever wins. A drying Rosehill track isn't what he'll be after, you can bet others will sprint straight past him."
Rosehill Race 7
BUY TESTASHADOW at $4.6
"He's been sharpened up with a 1,250 metre trial and Gary Portelli's got him ready for the weekend. Deanne Panya's 3kg claim adds the icing to the cake. Very hard to beat."
