Race 1 – Tile Importer Handicap (1400m)
Berkeley Square was an impressive winner on debut, and he can continue his rise through the grades at Ladbrokes Park on Wednesday.
The Territories gelding was unwanted in the market on debut at Geelong, but jogged in to record a comfortable win.
He’ll only improve for that experience and I am happy to stick with him.
Race 2 – Ladbroke It! Handicap (2400m)
Horrifying hasn’t won for some time, but he has improved with each of his four starts back this time, and I think that this looks a nice race for him.
Horrifying stamped himself as a galloper to follow during his three-year-old season, and I did think that there was plenty to like about his most-recent effort for fifth behind Point Nepean at Flemington.
With even luck, I think he’ll be right in the finish.
Race 3 – Ladbrokes Mates Mode Handicap (2100m)
Gate Crash takes winning form into he third at Ladbrokes Park on Wednesday, and he looks well placed to make it two in a row.
The Roc De Cambes gelding hasn’t returned a poor effort since debuting, winning three times and placing another three times in six career starts.
He just got there at Pakenham when resuming, but strips fitter and will enjoy plenty of improvement.
Race 4 – Ladbrokes Blended Bets Handicap (1200m)
There is a case to be made for several gallopers in the fourth at Sandown today, including Butter Blonde.
Butter Blonde hasn’t been seen at the races since New Year’s Day, but she returned some eye-catching efforts in Saturday metro company, including a close-up run over 1100m at Caulfield.
She has won at this point of her prep previously and we can have an each-way play at her current price ($13 at publish).
Race 5 – Ladbrokes Bet Ticker Handicap (1200m)
Blistering led all the way here at Ladbrokes Park last time out, and she can make it two in a row on Wednesday.
The Ready For Victory filly has finished worse than second only once in her four starts back this time, winning twice, and finishing a credible fourth in the VOBIS Gold Distaff most notably.
She’s rock-hard fit, and I can’t find a reason why she won’t be in the finish again.
Race 6 – Thoroughbred Club Handicap (1600m)
I’m going to give Glitter ‘N’ Gold another chance at Ladbrokes Park on Wednesday.
The Choisir filly has been up and racing for some time, but she has continued to produce strong performances, and she has found form around some quality gallopers.
This is a drop in class from her most-recent appearance over 1400m at Flemington, and she’s another whom we can have something on each way.
Race 7 – Tobin Brothers Celebrating Lives Handicap (1600m)
Eagles Crag can return to winning form at Ladbrokes Park on Wednesday.
The Fastnet Rock gelding was sent off at $2.25 in BM82 company at Morphettville when resuming and finished second, and he is yet to taste anything but success at this point of his prep.
He will need some luck after drawing wide, but the booking of Jamie Kah certainly doesn’t hurt his chances, and he is my best bet of the day.
Race 8 – Ladbrokes Easy Form Handicap (1300m)
Soarhi can make a winning return in the penultimate race at Ladbrokes Park on Wednesday.
The Testa Rossa gelding stamped himself as a galloper to follow when winning on debut at Newcastle in October, and he returned some nice efforts in the wake.
He’s had the benefit of a trial in the lead up to his return and he is drawn to receive every chance.
Race 9 – Ladbrokes Punter Assist Handicap (1300m)
There is a case to be made for plenty in the last at Ladbrokes Park on Wednesday, and I am going to have something on Peidra.
Peidra has been a model of consistency this time, filling the minors at each of his last three.
He steps out this week in peak order and hopefully, he can send us home a winner.
