RACE 5 – PARLIAMENTARIANS CUP
1. Colin Brown (CHIAROSCURO): “thought disappointing last start. He can definitely run first three and I wouldn’t be surprised if Murray has stepped him up a cog or two.”
2. (AS HAPPY AS LARRY): “
3. Chris Lewis (GOTTA GO GABBANA): “I would say the one hold up. Have to see what happens early. I would say we would take the options as they unfold. Going better than the form looks.”

4. Greg Bond (VAMPIRO): “Ready to run a great race.”
5. (OCEAN RIDGE): Scratched.
6. Michael Brennan (BRAEVIEW BONDI): “Barrier hurts but the horse is flying. Clearly going to need luck but if he gets some he can run top three.”
7. Gary Hall Snr (CHICAGO BULL): “Going as good as he can go. With no real bad luck in running he will go close.”
8. Ross Olivieri (PERFECT MAJOR): “He will be better than last week. He pulled up a little big. We will try and do our best from out there.”
9. Lindsay Harper (BLETCHLEY PARK): “It’s a horrible draw. If it’s genuinely run he should be in the first five. Saving grace is that it’s 2900.”

11. Greg Bond (GALACTIC STAR): “Racing great. Each-way chance.”

3. Dylan Egerton-Green (ANIME): “Loves the rails run. Hopefully won’t be too far back on them tonight.”
4. Corey Peterson (ONE FOR DAVE ANDME): “Really happy with him last week. He just got tired late. Will be a lot better this week after a solid run. Tricky draw. Just have to see where I lob and go from there.”
5. Chris Lewis (DOMINATE THE DOJO): “Haven’t driven HIM this time around. We will be forward and look to take the trail.”
6. Cody Wallrodt (BABYFACE ADDA): “Sticky form. Holding form well. Hopefully we can steam home for some minor money.”
7. Maddison Brown (JILLIBY JAKE): “Will take shortcuts.”
8. Deni Roberts (HENWOOD BAY): “Will drive him positively early and look for a forward position. Can place.”
9. Ryan Bell (BLUE BLAZER): “Racing very well without any luck. Up in grade but don’t dismiss his chances. Each-way all day.”

11. Jocelyn Young (MAXIMUM DEMAND): “Off 20m makes it tough.”
12. Ross Olivieri (THATS PERFECT): “Depends on the start. He began well at trials. He will improve on whatever he does.”
RACE 9 – MBL FOOD SERVICE 3YO FILLIES PACE
1. Colin Brown (FIFTY FIVE REBORN): “Last start she was better. Bailey McDonough has been driving her in fast work and this week I put the acid on him. I said ‘we’re drawn barrier one, don’t get it wrong’. He said all she wanted to do was work. He guarantees me she’s ready to roll.”
2. Aiden De Campo (BLUE CHIP ADDA): “Really even race. She is in with a good chance if things go her way.”

8. Ross Olivieri (RUN FOR MERCY): “The draw kills. She’s flying at home. In a good field and most of the chances are drawn inside her. Going well though and is a rough place hope.”
9. Justin Prentice (ALTA LOUISA): “Draw hurts. Will drive for luck.”
10. Gary Hall Snr (ADVANCE YOUR DREAM): “Not a winning hope from the draw. Place chance.”
