Jimmy The Rich writes that Ontheverge from the Candice Dawson stable is the best bet on the card and is the possible Pick 6 banker.
She is lightly raced with good form to her credit. She stayed on nicely when finishing third over 1800m on this course last time.
The daughter of Where’s That Tiger gets the blinkers fitted for the first time which should keep her mind on the task at hand. In this type of field, she should be the one to beat.
The in-form stable of Roy Magner saddles Hollywoodbound in the lucky last race. She hails from the in-form Roy Magner stable.
She was not disgraced when finishing third in the Grade 2 Golden Slipper last time. It must be noted that the form of that race has been franked. She won her penultimate start over this distance in fine style.
The daughter of Master Of My Fate makes her Handicap debut and with Gavin Lerena in the saddle, she can return to winning ways.
The false rail is 4m on the back straight and 4,5m on the bend with a 4,5m spur at the 600m mark.
