We have the best bets picked from across the meeting with a Best Bet and other value selections for Oakbank racetrack.
Race 4: No.5 Florey
The Jolly & Potter-trained galloper is in outstanding form this time in and looks well placed here to keep the trend going in this event.
Last start, the Churchill mare made it five-straight podium finishes when she claimed third prize in a BM82 over 1400m at Murray Bridge.
Will Price had her settled mid-field to the turn where she then hung-in badly during the run home and did well to arrive in time to grab the minor prize on the line.
Jake Toeroek returns for this assignment where the mare gets the gun-run from gate one and maps to settle slightly better than mid-field.
Gear changes are made here as she swaps the winkers for the full blinkers and sports the tongue tie for the first time as well.
A trouble-free run here should see her fighting out the finish again in this contest.
Race 7: No.8 Test Of Love
The Team Hayes-trained galloper sees Adelaide racing for the first time and in his current form, looks a genuine contender for the main prize in this event.
Last start, the British-sired gelding was shooting for the hat-trick when he had to settle for third prize in a BM78 Hcp over 1400m at Sandown on the Hillside circuit.
Trying to lead from barrier to box, he overraced for the best part of the trip and was beaten home by two better on the day.
From gate three here, he maps to take a sit behind the early speed with Rochelle Milnes as his pilot for this assignment.
To help him settle quicker, the stable have elected to fit the tongue tie for the first time and at his peak here, he should prove hard to hold out in this contest.
Race 8: No.12 Nextonixs
The Jolly & Potter stable saddle-up Nextonixs here who is high-flying after three starts this preparation and looks well place here for another top-three finish in this event.
Last start, the Tassort mare came off a good win in city class company when she finished a close-up third in a BM70 Hcp over 1000m at the Morphettville Parks track.
Rochelle Milnes had her settled third behind the pace and in the run home, never stopped chasing, beaten less than a length on the line.
Stepping-up to Listed company here, she draws nicely in gate two and maps to settle in the first half-dozen with Milnes steering the ship again.
Down 5.5kgs for this and at her peak fourth-up, she looks one of the major chances here and is well worth an each-way ticket in this contest.
