Race 1 – BECOME A BRC MEMBER Maiden Plate (1000 METRES)<\/div>\n
No. 8 Malamagic<\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div> \n <\/div> \n
\n

MALAMAGIC (8)<\/strong> looks ready to make a strong debut after three promising trials.<\/p>\n

He showed plenty of early dash in his first hit-out, leading all the way.<\/p>\n

In his second, he settled off the pace before charging home to miss by a nose.<\/p>\n

His latest trial was just as encouraging. He showed speed to settle second, then cruised through the work with plenty left to finish a length runner-up.<\/p>\n

Daniel Moor stays aboard and has a great draw to work with, giving the colt every chance to settle forward.<\/p>\n

Race 2 – SKY RACING Maiden Plate (1400 METRES)<\/div>\n
No. 7 Storming Home<\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div> \n <\/div> \n
\n

STORMING HOME (7)<\/strong> gets a fresh start for Jack Bruce after making one appearance in Sydney.<\/p>\n

She was well beaten on debut at Kembla Grange in February, but a decent spell looks to have helped her develop.<\/p>\n

Her two trials ahead of this return have both been encouraging. She settled back on each occasion, then powered through the line under her own steam.<\/p>\n

Ben Thompson has been on board for both hit-outs and sticks for race day.<\/p>\n

There doesn\u2019t look to be much speed, so he could find a handy spot early.<\/p>\n

Race 5 – HIGGINS COATINGS Class 5 Handicap (1000 METRES)<\/div>\n
No. 2 Shirvington<\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div> \n <\/div> \n
\n

SHIRVINGTON (2)<\/strong> has switched to Michael Freedman\u2019s stable after previously racing for Bjorn Baker in Sydney, and he looks ready to make his mark fresh.<\/p>\n

The Capitalist gelding led throughout in a recent Gold Coast trial, winning comfortably by 3.3 lengths.<\/p>\n

He\u2019s a reliable fresh performer, with three wins from four first-up runs.<\/p>\n

One of those came over this distance at Wyong at the start of last preparation.<\/p>\n

Jace McMurray claims 1.5kg, and from barrier one he can drive forward and either lead or take the box seat.<\/p>\n

Race 6 – LADBROKES TOTE WIN +10% IN OCTOBER Class 1 Plate (1200 METRES)<\/div>\n
No. 5 Monotone<\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div> \n <\/div> \n
\n

MONOTONE (5)<\/strong> announced himself with a dominant first-up win at the Sunshine Coast, scoring by 6.27 lengths for new trainer Jack Bruce.<\/p>\n

The son of Lonhro settled in the second-last pair and was still learning his craft in the straight.<\/p>\n

Once he found the front with a furlong to go, he burst clear and left the field behind.<\/p>\n

He should strip fitter and has raced second-up before, finishing behind Aethelwulf, who has since won a Group 3.<\/p>\n

Ben Thompson can let the speed go early, then bring him into the race late.<\/p>\n
