Race 1 – Benchmark 75 (1550m)

So You Win comes into this race off the back of a strong success at this track on February 21. This is only a slight step-up in class and the Waller-runner only rises 1kg in weight. So You Win is the horse to beat.

Race 1 tip: So You Win to win ($2.90 at William Hill)

Race 2 – Maiden Plate (1200m)

My Zebrinka has improved with every race start and looks well suited here. Following a layoff the three-year-old returned with a second placing, missing out by half a length on February 7. This appears to be within its grasp.

Race 2 tip: My Zebrinka to win ($5.50 at Ladbrokes)

Race 3 – Benchmark 70 (1550m)

The hat-trick seeking Planet’s Princess will be hard to hold out once again. The promising type has been progressing nicely throughout its career and this race appears within its grasp.

Race 3 tip: Planet’s Princess to win ($4.20 at Sportsbet)

Race 4 – Benchmark 70 (1250m)

[rmOC_events_list event_ids=1182222_04]

Its Time For Magic returned well on February 14 and we believe it can follow that up with a win. The Waller runner has a second-up win in the past and the resuming run at this level was exciting. We’re backing the mare in here.

Race 4 tip: Its Time For Magic to win ($2.25 at Sportsbet)

Race 5 – Benchmark 74 (1900m)

We cannot go past the unbeaten Furore here. This will be the hardest test of its three race career, but it’s last two wins – of just shy of a combined eight lengths – is too hard to overlook.

Race 5 tip: Furore to win ($2.20 at William Hill)

Race 6 – Benchmark 76 (1250m)

[rmOC_events_list event_ids=1182222_06]

The second-up Catesby will be hard to beat here. The resuming run was encouraging, with the Godolphin runner taking the race out by a nose. There’s no reason to think it cannot make it two-from-two this preparation.

Race 6 tip: Catesby to win ($3.50 at William Hill)

Race 7 – Benchmark 80 (1550m)

[rmOC_events_list event_ids=1182222_07]

Sculptures has been in good form recently and will be right in the mix. The horse has won and placed a further three times across its last four runs, and while this is a step-up in class, the form cannot be denied.

Race 7 tip: Sculptures to win ($17 at Crownbet)

Race 8 – Benchmark 73 (1100m)

[rmOC_events_list event_ids=1182222_08]

Vincero knows what it takes to win fresh. The Gary Portelli runner has a win and a placing from two attempts fresh, and it has trialed with a win leading into this. Back Vincero to round out the night with a win.

Race 8 tip: Vincero to win ($4.80 at Ladbrokes)
