Magic Search has looked good winning its last two starts and that form should stack up well.
The David Pfieffer-trained three-year-old scored two quality wins at Canberra and it should be too tough to beat over the concluding stages.
Race 1 tip: Magic Search to win ($2.90) at CrownBet.com.au
Race 2 – Maiden Plate (1600m)

Falcon Island has been the best backed runner of the field, having finished a quality third placing on debut.
Trained by Gai Waterhouse and Adrian Bott, the son of Harbour Watch should take good improvement from the outing and be too tough in the run to the line.
Race 2 tip: Falcon Island to win ($3.40) at Neds.com.au
Race 3 – Maiden Plate (1100m)

Star of Monsoon owes punters plenty of money, but surely the time is now for the Gerald Ryan-trained runner.
It has run 11 placings from 16 starts and some of those came in strong events, so this maiden graded race shouldn’t be too tough and punters are getting nice odds.
Race 3 tip: Star of Monsoon to win ($2.70) at CrownBet.com.au
Race 4 – BM65 Handicap (1000m)
[rmOC_events_list event_ids=1176134_04]
Bee Neata was a stylish winner on debut at Goulburn when scoring by a length and that form looks strong for this.
There was good betting support for the two-time trial winner on debut and that same support has been met here. She opened at $4.40 and has come tumbling in to $3.50 with bookmakers.
Race 4 tip: Bee Neata to win ($3.50) at CrownBet.com.au
Race 5 – C2 Handicap (1912m)

Blanco Cara has had three runs this campaign for only moderate results, but this is easier and the positive betting support is good to see.
John Thompson lines up the $3.90 shot, which opened at $4 and it should be in the thick of the action.
Race 5 tip: Blanco Cara to win ($3.90) at Sportsbet.com.au
Race 6 – Belle of the Turf (1600m)
[rmOC_events_list event_ids=1176134_06]
Sedanzer is in incredible form this season and despite the big weight, it looks a good bet in the feature race of the day.
The Waterhouse/Bott-trained mare has rattled off three consecutive wins this campaign after running in the Oaks last preparation and that form is strong at this level.
Race 6 tip: Sedanzer to win ($2.30) at CrownBet.com.au
Race 7 – C2 Handicap (1100m)

Kettering is rarely far away from the prize as its form suggests.
The Kris Lees-trained runner was a solid winner two starts back before following that up with a placing last time out.
This is an even field and it’s an even chance.
Race 7 tip: Kettering to win ($4.60) at Neds.com.au
