Post your tips and best bets here, include odds and what option you're backing (win, place) if you can.

I'll kick it off with Pigeon Ponds @ 4.40 win & 1.60+ to place in the 3rd @ Ballina in 20 minutes.

Deloraine Win race 2 at Sandown.... Good win last start over some likely types and looks easier here.... Danger would be Olivers mount, but really is unproven yet, has got a couple of favourable runs, in not so good fields....

I noticed Sahifa got beaten by the favourite last start by 1.5 lengths, but meets it 4.5 kilos better this time in so I'd be inclined to give it another chance. Before that it put up a nice performance at the valley when it ran up to the promising Liger.

Also hopefully after a couple of non impressive runs, Kincharm can get out to good odds and win over the lesser distance....

What a disappointing horse that's been. Well backed every start but never delivers. I think Operetta Lass from a nice barrier is hitting fitness.

Yep, but carried six less than liger.....

Still you have added extra doubts to my mind....

Its run last start wasnt that bad....

Heres the video analysis: at the rear 11L off lead in a good pace, still at the rear 7L off at the 500m, widest into straight, hung in at the 300m, challenged at the 150m, ll, battled on strong one pace.

And it only went down by a length....

Yes, but meeting a horse that beat it by one and a half lengths last start carrying 4.5 kilos less than its last run should just about even it up. I'm saying it has the ability to cover the favourite, Deloraine is the wildcard.

The good pace is what allowed it to run on. If it were just an average pace it would have been beaten 3-5 lengths.
