1:35am - AUSTRALIAN TURF CLUB HANDICAP | 1400m | | i

Royal Randwick with the rail out 12m on SOFT ground, expect them to try to find the best dry ground out wider, an OFF RAILS bias expected to develop during the day. Starting with the 2YOs and there's a few that can go forward to ensure a FAIR tempo. The talented, but very green, MANDELA threw the race away on debut and has since dominated in a trial win (importantly went straighter). He's got big upside and will be hard to beat, but the tough filly HAVIN' FUN is a huge chance too after chasing down Special Snap (since won) last start. EXCELLENT PROPOSAL (wouldn't lie down), MOST WELCOME (1400m should suit), STARLA (ran on well) and PIXEL PERFECT (very wide, stuck on) all with enough progression to cause an upset. Expect very solid runs from ROMAN WOLF (if he jumps) and WAR BARON. [FORM GUIDE only] [updated 8:56am] Mandela: Winkers OFF FIRST TIME; Pixel Perfect: Blinkers FIRST TIME, Lugging Bit FIRST TIME; Quintessa: Blinkers FIRST TIME.
