Tricky race to work out with a field of first starters and minimal Trial form. The market will be the best guide. Godolphin pair ATMOSPHERE (1) and VIBURNUM (3) are sure to be well educated and although jockey engagements don't provide much of a guide, forward showings can be expected. DISCERNING (4) on debut for the Snowden yard has to be respected from an inside draw. MADAME ROMANOV (6) has performed well in two Trials in preparation. She could be the value in the race. NO DIGGITY (7) on debut for the Freedman yard can add another 2YO winner to their growing tally without surprising.
Racing well. Most recently sat on the pace when 2nd of 9 at this track 3yo Mdn on December 10 over 1318m, 0.8 len behind Imminent Risk with 56kg at $5.

Has the form to go close.

She is resuming after a ten weeks break. Finished off last campaign fourth of 7 at Avoca 3yo Mdn October 16 over 1200m, soft track; 3.5 len behind Toby Xpress with 56kg at $5.50.

Third race start today. At very big odds at debut, 8th of 11 (began awkwardly; eased near 1000m; got its head up) at Mornington 3yo F Mdn on November 18 over 1200m, 7 len behind Morioka carrying 57kg at $81.

SNOW BUSINESS (12) only went down narrowly with a good gap to third at this track on debut in a race run in good time. She raced handy to the speed on that occasion and she can go one better here with natural improvement. TERN AND GO (14) resumes from a spell having run a close second on debut behind the city class Sunfall when in the market, to start last campaign. She looms as a danger from an inside alley with natural improvement. ANTIPODES (1) is getting close to a win having placed at her past two including a narrow defeat at this track last start when well supported. Keep safe. BIRD OF DUBAI (4) will strip fitter third up and should be suited up to this trip. Look for improvement despite an awkward draw. RAPID RUBY (10) has placed at three of her four runs to date and is worth including in the multiples.
Second-up. First-up after eight months slowly away; 9th of 13 at this track 3yo+ Mdn on December 10 over 1218m, 10 len behind What A Sham with 59.5kg at $151. Previously second-up 5th of 10 at Werribee 3yo+ Mdn Plate on April 10 over 1420m, slow going 9 len behind Kentucky Dream carrying 59.5kg at $101. Yet to place and that looks unlikely to change here.

Fitter second up and gets the Blinkers on but a place preferred.

DE LA FAYETTE (12) was placed at this track two starts ago before a close up finish in town last start when well back in the run. Look for her to be thereabouts at the finish. VA DANSER (13) by Vadamos creates interest on debut. This trip should suit at her first time to the races and any market moves could prove significant despite an awkward draw. ZOURISKY (14) on debut for the Moody yard must be respected and a forward showing wouldn't surprise. JENNI OF AVALON (11) found the trip too short first up when well supported. Look for sharp improvement up in distance, with added fitness and the Blinkers off. LISTEN TO ME JACK (4) failed to figure at this track last start but he's worth another chance based on a sound debut effort the start prior.

Three-year-old filly by Ocean Park out of Ruud Van Slaats having her first start. Purchased for NZD $ 450,000 (NZB 2020 Karaka National Yearling Sale - Book 1). The market will be the best guide to her chances on debut. Nicely bred and creates plenty of interest.

At debut, slowly away; got back early 5th of 8 at this track 3yof Mdn on December 1 over 1200m, 6 len behind Destiny Diamond with 57kg at $16. Encouraging effort on debut. Expect further improvement here and worth watching for later on.

THE BUZZ (9) stuck to his task well on debut from a forward position in the run. He was well supported on that occasion and improvement is expected up in trip and with with added fitness at his second time to the races. ROCK WAVE (8) creates plenty of interest on debut for the Moody yard. Any market moves could prove significant and a forward showing wouldn't surprise from an inside gate. JET JITSU (7) has been thereabouts at his past three and he looks capable of the required improvement with the Blinkers going on. Keep safe. AMEERABELLA (10) has an awkward draw to contend with first up but she has shown enough in two runs to date to suggest she can get into the finish with natural improvement. OCEANA BLUE (13) on debut is nicely bred and worth including in exotics.
Last start overraced early stages; 5th of 9 at Bairnsdale 3yo+ Mdn on December 5 over 2200m, 3 len behind Lottie's The Boss with 59.5kg at $6.50. The start before that 4th of 8 at this track 3yo+ Mdn on November 14 over 1733m, slow going 8 len behind Fighting Arrow with 59.5kg at $21. Better last start up in trip. Not the worst.

Had two starts to date. At debut, slowly away and failed to handle going; 10th of 12 at Hamilton 3yo+ Mdn on November 22 over 1409m, 7 len behind Bajraktari carrying 59.5kg at $8.50. Second-up slowly away and held up near turn; 9th of 11 at Warrnambool 3yo+ Mdn on December 9 over 1700m, 16 len behind Tuki Twelve with 59.5kg at $17. Gets the Blinkers on but needs plenty of improvement on exposed form to figure.

EMERGING (6) came from well back last start to just miss behind the well performed Salto Angel. This trip should pose no problems on breeding and although he's likely to give them a start in the run, further improvement is likely at only his fourth time to the races. VOSMAERI (11) is yet to place but creates interest extending out to this trip off sound recent efforts when well supported. She warrants plenty of respect despite a raft of gear changes. THISTLER (5) is only lightly raced but progressing well. He can settle handy to the speed and should be in it for a long way with natural improvement at start number three. SENTRY ROCK (2) has placed at two of his past three runs including an eye catching effort coming from well back last start behind the handy Bullarook Boy. Keep safe. MISS SENTENTIA (9) ran an encouraging race out to this trip last start and appeals on an each way basis.
Recent form sound. Most recently settled back and ran on when 4th of 8 at Hamilton 3yo+ (Bm58) on December 7 over 2200m, 1.0 len behind Miss Tenthousand carrying 62kg at $13.

The race before that sat on the pace when 2nd of 9 at Bairnsdale 3yo+ Mdn on December 5 over 2200m, neck behind Lottie's The Boss with 59.5kg at $4.50. Capped some solid recent form with a deserved Maiden win last start. Can go on with it here.

BULLAROOK BOY (3) capped three solid placings at 2000m and above with a deserved win over this trip last start. He appears to have further improvement in him and has more upside than his rivals in this race. He can win again from a forward position in the run. JEKYLL'N'HYDE (1) stuck to his task well last start when close up behind the handy Miss Tenthousand. He gets the Blinkers off here and another forward showing can be expected. HANAKI WARRIOR (7) doesn't win often but he does have a win to his name over the course and distance. His last two starts have been sound and he's worth including in the multiples. FALTONIUS (9) and MY KING'S COUNSEL (6) don't appear to be winning chances but they can contend for a minor place based on their last start efforts.

Racing well. Most recently came from midfield and won by 0.8 len at Hamilton 3yo+ (Bm58) December 7 over 1400m defeating Category Five carrying 57.5kg at $5.50. The run before that wide throughout; ran on from midfield; 2nd of 10 at Penshurst (Bm52) on November 20 over 1476m, head behind Autumn's Best with 58kg at $7.50. A good chance again now that he's found winning form.

FREE FLYING STAR (9) is progressing nicely this time in having placed at both start back from a spell. He made good ground from the back last start for second when an odds on favourite and is ready to win out to this trip third up. Despite an awkward draw he should be hard to beat. LOCKO (2) is close to another win having placed at three of his past four runs including last start in stronger grade. He's well placed in this race and drawn to advantage. VLADIVOSTOK (3) will make his own luck on speed and his third up form is better than it reads on paper. He's ready to show his best and could take catching. LITTLE RICHIE TURF (1) has an awkward draw to overcome but is suited in this grade. Include in the exotics. STATELY STAR (8) warrants respect now he's returned to winning form.
Racing well. Comes here off a 36-day let-up. Last start slowly away; 3rd of 10 at Tatura Hcp (58) on November 20 over 1450m, 4.5 len behind Pay The Deeler carrying 59.5kg at $7. The run before that held up on straightening and lacerations; 2nd of 12 at this track Hcp (58) on November 6 over 1300m, 0.8 len behind My Prince Charming carrying 59kg at $6. Racing well but likely to get back in the run. A place preferred again.

CHANGING TRACKS (9) has been thereabouts at her past two starts in higher grade including last start in town when pulling up with a vet's excuse. She'll find this easier and she can settle closer from an inside gate. Look for her to go close. MONTALBANO (2) is yet to place in four first up attempts but finds the right race here fresh. He has the early speed to cross from an awkward draw to race handy and should be in it for a long way. BELLOWS (1) just missed last start with a good gap to third which followed a close second over the course and distance the start prior. He rates among the main hopes again. MRS MAISEL (13) pulled up with an excuse last start when favourite. She's capable of bouncing back. Keep safe. TRUE IMPACT (3) hasn't had things go his way at his past two after an encouraging first up win. Don't take lightly.

Third-up today and won third-up previously. First-up didn't finish the race at Yarra Valley 3yo+ Hcp (58) November 27 over 1200m. Second-up began awkwardly; 6th of 11 at Kyneton 3yo+ Hcp (C1) on November 29 over 1100m, 2.5 len behind Colsridge with 55.5kg at $17. Encouraging effort first up. Warrants respect from a forward position in the run.

Dual acceptor. Second run back. First-up after seven months tracked the speed and boxed on steadily; won by a nose at Stawell 3yo+ Mdn Plate December 4 over 1100m defeating Tony's Kick with 57.5kg at $31. Previously second-up began awkwardly and in season; 7th of 11 at Balaklava 2yo+ Mdn on April 28 over 1050m, 5 len behind Morialta carrying 56kg at $21. Impressed when winning narrowly first up at big odds. Not without a chance with natural improvement.

Resuming today after a six months break. Finished off last campaign sixth of 8 at Ballarat Synthetic Hcp (58) June 20 over 1100m, 8 len behind Tanner carrying 58kg at $4.50. Previous preparation first-up won by 2.5 len (got its head up; held up on straightening) Stony Creek (Bm64) March 7 over 1100m defeating Tuscan Leather carrying 56kg at $4.80. Suited resuming in this grade. Looks hard to beat.

At the latest run held up near 400m; sat behind the speed prior to fading second last of 8 at Warrnambool 3yo+ F&M (Bm58) on December 9 over 1100m, 3 len behind Grable with 61.5kg at $9. The run before that ran last of 8 at Pakenham 3yo+ Hcp (C1) on November 25 over 1200m, 3 len behind Nasraawy carrying 55.5kg at $26. A place appears her best prospect.

Second-up. First-up after four months raced behind the speed prior to fading 10th of 12 (began awkwardly; held up in straight; not fully tested) at Wangaratta 3yo+ Hcp (58) on December 11 over 1100m, 6 len behind Otelo carrying 56.5kg at $6. Previously second-up failed to handle going; sat on the speed throughout before fading 8th of 10 at Echuca Hcp (58) on June 26 over 1100m, on rain affected going; 4.5 len behind Volere with 58kg at $4. Open to improvement second up. Worth thought.

Third-up today and placed third-up in the past. Resuming didn't finish the race at Yarra Valley 3yo+ Hcp (58) November 27 over 1000m. Second run from a spell laid in in the straight; 10th of 12 at Bairnsdale 3yo+ Hcp (58) on December 5 over 1000m, 3.5 len behind Make An Effort with 53kg at $15. Good effort resuming. Some hope if there's any give in the ground.

At the latest run slowly away; 6th of 10 at Yarra Valley 3yo+ (Bm58) on December 17 over 1200m, 6 len behind Scorpius carrying 54kg at $101. The start before that ran last of 9 (began awkwardly; got its head up; overraced early, middle stages) at Cranbourne 3yo+ (Bm58) on December 10 over 1600m, 10 len behind Spirit Of Gold carrying 55kg at $101. Winning strike rate is too poor. Others preferred.

Resuming after a 11 months break. Not seen since he finished last in a small field at Warrnambool 3yo Mdn Plate February 5 over 1200m, soft track; 13 len behind Grable carrying 56kg at $26. On debut began awkwardly and overraced early stages; second last in a small field at Camperdown 3yo Mdn Plate January 16 over 1000m, 5 len behind Marchena carrying 58kg at $26. First up. Prefer in something easier.

Before that sat on the speed and boxed on steadily 6th of 12 at Pakenham 3yo+ Mdn on November 25 over 1200m, 4 len behind Writey O'pal with 57.5kg at $31. A place preferred again here.

Last start laid out in straight; 6th of 12 at Bairnsdale 3yo+ Hcp (58) on December 5 over 1000m, 1.2 len behind Make An Effort carrying 59kg at $21. Before that began awkwardly; 10th of 14 at Bendigo 3yo+ Mdn on November 25 over 1100m, 5 len behind Five Bulls carrying 59.5kg at $21. Thereabouts lately but prefer in Maiden grade.

WILD CHARLOTTE (10) is well placed first up in this grade having resumed an easy winner in a BM64 to kick off last campaign when well supported. She can settle handy to the speed from an inside gate and take holding out at the finish. GOJAZZ (4) doesn't win out of turn but has placed at his past three including last start behind the impressive Scorpius. That reads well for this and he should be thereabouts again. FOREVER LOUD (9) has run well in stronger races at his past two starts and warrants respect. Include among the main hopes. BUSH CHRISTMAS (6) will make her own luck on speed and should be in it for a long way with added fitness second up. SNITWAY (5) will appreciate the drop in grade and the rise in distance. He can go close from an inside draw.
