Warwick Farm (NSW) – Good 4
R1 – 1200m 2YO Maiden Handicap
A race that lacks early speed, which could suit those drawn to settle forward. Peyton comes off a strong placing and gets the perfect draw, making him the one to beat. St Gotthard profiles well on debut from a sharp stable, while Whitehall and Lafite are both well-bred newcomers capable of making an impact first-up.
Selections:
8. Peyton (1) – $3.30
3. St Gotthard (3) – $2.60
6. Whitehall (6) – $4.00
- Lafite (4) – $7.50
R2 – 1200m 2YO Fillies Maiden Handicap
Looks a slowly run race on paper which may turn into a tactical affair. Wacko gets the nod on debut from a strong yard, while Victorious Ruler showed promise first-up and maps to get a soft run. Your Colour is another debutant to watch, and Dynamic Diva drops in grade and could surprise fresh.
Selections:
7. Wacko (5) – $8.00
6. Victorious Ruler (1) – $5.50
8. Your Colour (2) – $7.00

R3 – 1600m Maiden Handicap

- Freddie Bassett (1) – $5.50
- Simply Gold (2) – $11.00
