Geelong Racing Club will host a very competitive eight-race card on Thursday afternoon. The track is currently rated a Good 4, and with no rain forecast for Wednesday and Thursday, expect the surface to stay at that rating for the whole program. The rail will be in the true position for the entire circuit, with the opening race scheduled to jump at 1:30pm AEDT.

Best Bet at Geelong – Mahrez

Mahrez was a dominant winner at this track over 1755m last time out, when he led from start to finish to record a 1.8-length victory over Red Columbine on November 30. The Lindsey Smith-trained galloper jumped well from his barrier and was allowed to cross the field and lead at his own speed before upping the tempo at the 600m mark. With the rest of his rivals off the bit and struggling to pick him up, this son of Iffraaj was eased down in the final 50m to win arrogantly. Fred Kersley will retain the ride, and if he can find the front on Mahrez, he will prove hard to beat again.

Best Value at Geelong – Corrupted

The Anthony & Sam Freedman-trained Corrupted was very good when running on from the back of the field to finish third, beaten half a length by Pisanello over 1103m at Kyneton on November 20. This three-year-old filly settled midfield and made her run out wide on the home turn before letting down with a strong finishing burst. After running out of ground to pick up the leaders, the daughter of Hellbent should enjoy the rise in distance to 1200m second-up. Ben Allen should be able to find a nice spot midfield off the rail and allow Corrupted to go through her gears.
