3:25pm - PETALUMA HANDICAP | 2400m | | i

There could be a bit of action on-pace early with YARRAWONGA the likely leader and a few others handy on the Speed Map. Tempo will make a huge difference like it always does in these staying races. Horses like CALIFORNIA GRASS and LYRICAL GANGSTER (if he stays 2400m) will be hoping for pressure, while YARRAWONGA and YANKEE HUSSEL try to find the right rhythm on-pace. I think YANKEE HUSSEL (if she settles), YARRAWONGA and CALIFORNIA GRASS (true 2400m horse) are the three to beat in an open race.
