THOROUGHBREDS

Cranbourne: Race 3; #1 Exit Down Arrow 

LAY: 1. Exit (WIN) for 3 units (Rated at $3.70) Exit won well first-up last preparation but then tailed off badly and the overall ratings didn't match those expected by the market. The jumpouts leading into this prep have been ok but she gives away a map advantage to those in the market and will need everything to go her way to win.

Canterbury: Race 2; #1 Alphard Down Arrow  

LAY: 1. Alphard (WIN) for 2 units (Rated at $7.50) It is a competitive race but I am against ALPHARD here for this, there is speed drawn around him so he is a chance to get shuffled back on the fence which could prove to be an awkward position but is also resuming off what looks an interrupted preparation based on trials so he may have more improvement to give fitter into the prep after this run.

GREYHOUNDS

Warragul: Race 9; #2 Tim Zoo Down Arrow 

LAY: 2. Tim Zoo (WIN) for 2 units (Rated at $5.50) Tim Zoo drops back in distance here and is very likely to be outpaced early. If the likes of Off The Chart and Aston Rayner pinch a big break on him mid race, I can't see Tim Zoo being able to reel them in.

Warragul: Race 11; #8 Cash The Lot Down Arrow   

LAY: 8. Cash The Lot (WIN) for 2 units (Rated at $3.00) Cash The Lot was a decent run here last start but not sure the outside draw suits here. There is plenty of early pace with Best Dressed and Banjo One String reliable beginners. Faye Valentine could drive Cash The Lot mad mid race so there's plenty of variables against Cash The Lot here at the short price.
