We have the best bets picked from across the meeting with a Best Bet and other value selections for Canterbury racetrack.
Race 4: No.5 Bearings
The John Sargent-trained galloper is on the improve and third-up here, looks a winning chance at odds in this event.
Last start, the Tarzino mare showed a ton of improvement when she beat all but one home in a BM64 over 1800m at Hawkesbury.
With Siena Grima in the saddle, she settled second-last to the turn where Grima stuck to the inside and on straightening, secured a rails-run and ran home strongly, only to suddenly shift out inside the final 100m and had to be steadied before going on to collect second prize on the line.
Drawn nicely in gate five, she maps to settle near mid-field with Grima in charge again for this assignment.
Already a winner when third-up, she has the ability to upset the odds-on favourite here and claim victory in this contest.
Race 6: No.4 Just Awesome
The Blake Ryan-trained galloper is high-flying after three runs back and looks a serious chance for the hat-trick in this event.
Last start, the Written Tycoon gelding made it back-to-back wins in Newcastle when he clobbered his rivals in a BM68 over 900m.
Leeshelle Small had him leading on settling where he set a solid pace to the turn, then in the run home, they couldn’t get near him as he went on to score by two lengths on the line.
Well drawn in gate four, he maps to be leading the way again with Small retaining the ride for this assignment.
Fourth-up and at his peak, the four-year-old will should prove hard to run down in this contest.
Race 8: No.1 Manukau
Michael Freedman saddles-up Manukau here who has found her mojo for this campaign and looks a major chance here for back-to-back success in this event.
Last start, the Lonhro mare came off three unplaced efforts before turning it all around and taking out a BM72 over 1100m at Warwick Farm.
With Zac Lloyd aboard, she settled fourth one off the fence to the turn before scouting wide, then in the run home, she took the lead soon after straightening and had too many guns for them, going on to score a narrow win in the end.
Ideally drawn in gate two, she maps to be box-seating on settling with Siena Grima being legged aboard for her first ride on the mare.
Meeting similar company here, her only previous start on this track resulted in a win and with a trouble-free run, the five-year-old looks set for another victory in this contest.
