Confidence rating
Small fields make for an interesting day to start with. Race 7 looks to be even while I’d avoid races 3 and 9. Races 1 and 4 looks to be a battle between my top two tips. I’ll be interested to see how the track plays given that it’s being raced on on Friday. Weaponson gets a crack at listed grade. I had to put him on top given the form that he’s in, that he’s 4:2-2-0 at this track and distance and the light weight. Hopefully, he proves punters right given that he’s the favourite!
