Racing & Sports expert selections.

RACE 1 - PRAY AGAIN (1) is knocking on the door of late, finishing just 1.4L off the winner over 1650m here most recently. This is a slightly easier event and while he rises in weight, he maps to get every chance for Brad Parnham. Racing in top form and can end his winning drought today. MAJOR MARIO (2) closed off strongly 9 days ago at Pinjarra to just miss out by 0.5L. Out to the mile for just the second time, but he ran well over this distance back in May when narrowly beaten. Ticking along nicely and should get his chance. KAZKAZI (4) hasn't won for a long time, but has out-performed his market expectations this time in. Despite being 25-1 last start, he was only 2.1L off the winner and rates well off his two runs back this time. Can challenge for victory. BARTIME (3) couldn't hold on at Pinjarra when taking up the running. Better draw this time can see him go close. ROYAL GAP (8) should be hitting his peak now and is not to be discounted.

RACE 2 - Good race for the 3YO's. CLEANEMUP (5) has taken all before her, winning comfortably by 1.6L over this track and trip 35 days ago. She has the pace to lead this field and suspect we haven't seen the bottom of her just yet. Expected her to stay undefeated with further improvement expected. BLUE ROCKET (4) contested the strong 2YO features last campaign, not beaten far in the Karrakatta behind the Everest-bound Bustling. She looks to have returned in sharp order judging by her recent trial and it wouldn't surprise to see her resume on a winning note. DESERT WHISPER (7) was too strong down the straight at Pinjarra and should be in this race for a long way. MADHI GIRL (3) will be fitter for two quiet trials and is right in the mix again.

RACE 3 - BRAVO CENTURION (3) is on the 7-day backup following a 4.8L demolition job over this course and distance. He'll find the front again for Chris Parnham and this isn't the strongest BM66+ we've seen. He looks a galloper on the way up and he can extend his unbeaten run. UNDER INFLUENCE (5) got out to 1200m last start and probably didn't see out the trip in Heavy conditions last start. Back to this course and distance is a big tick, as is the booking of William Pike. Good win two back and he looks the main danger. AIN'T NO OTHER MAN (2) has bumped into a few good ones of late, finishing well back last start after over racing as an 11-1 chance. Better than he showed there and can bounce back with the tongue tie being applied. CAPITAL FLIGHT (1) wasn't beaten far last time out and was in the market in a stronger race two back. Include. PADDY'S FLYIN' (4) went close at Pinjarra last start and loves this track and trip. Include.

RACE 4 - IOWA (1) was too good over 2100m here last time out, leading from start to finish and saluting by 0.7L. He usually peaks third-up, having won 2/4 and the claim of Campbell comes in handy. Should find the front again and take plenty of catching. QUEEN OF JERUSALEM (5) is hard to knock on recent form, finishing 1.3L over this track and trip in Heavy going. She gets a nice pull in the weights on this occasion and she's sure to make her presence felt at the finish. CELEBRITY WITNESS (7) dropped back to the mile last start and never looked likely after a slim defeat over this course and distance on July 20. Pike hops back in the saddle now and he carries no weight from a good draw. Expecting to see her right in the finish. FILTHY HABITS (2) got the job done in Heavy going over this course and distance two back. Hard to knock her recent form and won't be far away. XTRAREVZ (3) didn't handle the going last time out and a sharp turnaround in form is expected.

RACE 5 - The feature of the day. GINNIVAN (5) continues to raise the bar and looks destined for some better races through The Pinnacles. He was far too good over this track and trip last start, winning by 1.5L when leading throughout. Continues to improve with every run and can bring up the hat-trick. GHOST WHO WALKS (1) had his chance in the Belmont Newmarket last start but failed to run out the trip. Back to this distance now is a big tick and he should get his chance. At peak fitness now and looks set to put his best foot forward. GO FORWARD (6) has trialled impressively coming into this event and has placed 4/7 first-up. He'll need some luck from the draw, but he was good last campaign without winning and he's sure to go close in what looks a suitable event. PULI (2) won the Beaufine here three back and will enjoy the drop back to this trip. SUPERSESSION (7) gets Pike in the saddle and will be doing his best work late.

RACE 6 - TRIO (5) brought up back-to-back victories last start when running over the top to score by 1.1L. Out to 1400m now shouldn't be an issue and he should get his chance from the inside draw. He continues to improve with racing and now at his peak, he looks ready to bring up the hat-trick. WATCH ME ROCK (4) resumed with a strong win at Northam and now gets Pike in the saddle. While he has drawn wide, he's run well from back in the field previously and it's easy to forecast a new peak effort. Improving type who can win again. WESTERN POWER (7) can continue to build following a strong win at Northam last start. DENNIS CHOUX (2) is in the mix if he runs up to recent performances.

RACE 7 - SILVER EYE (1) was far too good in Heavy conditions last start when dropping back to 1000m, winning by 2.5L. He had been close to winning over this track and trip prior, so rising back up in distance is not a worry. He should get a nice run from the barrier and if he runs up to his latest figures, he'll take beating again. KING AKEED (9) is an impressive galloper on the way up, scoring comfortably at Northam last start as favourite. The form out of that race has been franked and further improvement is anticipated. Can improve again and get the job done. KEEP ATTACKING (5) disappointed when favourite last start over this course and distance but I'm forgiving of one poor run. A firmer deck may suit and CJP hops in the saddle now. Run two back rates highly and he's expected to bounce back. STARATING (7) was competitive in staying 3YO features last campaign and was sharp in her trial. Include. FAMEUX (4) will appreciate the rise in trip and should get his chance.

RACE 8 - OTHERONESON (2) resumed with a good effort over 1200m from a long layoff and was in the market there too. He's undefeated second-up previously and the fresh run suggested he hasn't lost a yard despite the long break. Still lightly raced and can return to winning ways today. DEAMBER (5) just missed in a photo finish over 1400m a fortnight ago when sitting up on the speed throughout. She only rises 1kg today and this looks to set up similarly for her. Racing well without winning this time in, but today may be her day. SENTIMENTAL BELLE (4) was a heavy favourite here last week and went under by 1.7L. Her form prior is hard to go past though and she lost no admirers last time out. Pike sticks and she's sure to be in the finish once again. DESERT NYMPH (8) bolted in last start and is looking for the hat-trick. Big tick with the in-form Chris Parnham riding. Must include. ANGEL UNDERCOVER (6) has bumped into a couple good ones of late and is worth plenty of thought.

RACE 9 - CAPTAIN PLUTO (1) bolted in first-up before just missing as favourite over 1400m last time out, beaten 0.2L. Now William Pike takes the ride and the step out to the mile looks ideal. He's likely to get back in the run, but with further improvement expected, he looks set to go one better this time. MACCIATEAU (8) was too good over this course and distance 21 days ago when winning by 0.2L as he ran over the top. Still a lightly raced prospect with improvement to come, he's taken a liking to the Belmont mile. Should get his chance for Steve Parnham and make his presence felt. SNAZZLER (2) comes here looking for the hat-trick after a 1.4L win over 1650m here just 10 days ago, Drawn well again today and if he can run up to what he produced last time out, he'll be right in the finish. PROBITY (5) should appreciate the better barrier today and is worth plenty of thought. CATEGORY THREE (10) is ticking along well without winning and is worth including.
