(6) Everyone’s Victory resumes here and is a specialist on the dirt, with two wins and six placings from 10 starts on the AWT. Finished in the top two in 6 consecutive starts last prep and should go close for the in-form Frankie Lor yard.
(2) Toronado Phantom is value at $7.50. He was disappointing last start but his form around Eason and Lucky Sweynesse prior to that was good. Purton on today for his debut on the dirt.
Tip: (6) Everyone’s Victory $3.60 Moneyball
Value: (2) Toronado Phantom $7.50 Bet365
Betting Strategy: 1 unit WIN Everyone’s Victory, 0.5 units WIN Toronado Phantom

Think the soft track conditions really suit (4) Solid Impact today, who was outstanding first up when beaten a nose by Reve Parisien. They pulled 3L clear of the third horse and Solid Impact’s best form has all been on rain-affected ground so gets things to suit today. Hard to beat.
(7) Beauty Mission and (11) War Weapon are also both suited by the soft track, with their only career victories coming on rain-affected ground. Can have something small on both at the odds.
Tip: (4) Solid Impact $4.60 Bet365
Also Backing: (7) Beauty Mission $9.00 Ladbrokes
Value: (11) War Weapon $10 Bet365
Betting Strategy: 1 unit WIN Solid Impact, 0.5 units WIN Beauty Mission, 0.5 units WIN War Weapon
