The Melbourne Cup<\/a> might be the focus on Tuesday, but we’ve got 10 races set to rival the action in Victoria, with the fifth edition of the Big Dance<\/a> taking place at Royal Randwick.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Gringotts is back with a serious chance at a hat-trick in the $3 million feature, while there’s a case to be made for more than a few in wide-open editions of the Barn Dance and the Little Dance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Keep an eye on the weather with rain set right across the weekend and through to race day. The rail is also out 2m across the circuit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For a comprehensive look at all 10 races at Randwick, as well as our best bets and form analysis, check out our Big Dance Day Preview by scrolling below.<\/p>\n\n\n

Race 1 – MIDWAY HANDICAP (1800 METRES) <\/div>\n
No. 6 La Morra <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div> \n <\/div> \n
\n

LA MORRA (6)<\/strong> looks ready for the extra step up in trip coming off a brilliant second-up win over the mile at Kembla Grange. <\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

John Thompson\u2019s mare enjoyed a lovely ride up close to the speed before pulling away, dashing three lengths clear with plenty left to give through the line. <\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

A genuinely wet track might test her, but she\u2019s handled soft going in the past and the wide gate might be an advantage as she looks to push forward early and find the front. <\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\n

FLIRTATION (16)<\/strong> likes some cut in the ground and arrives first-up off a nice trial at Muswellbrook leading in. <\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The Snitzel mare gapped her rivals by 1.7 lengths to claim her maiden at Scone in late May and was then runner-up to Zoucratic at Muswellbrook, who more recently has claimed the Krambach Cup at Taree. <\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The 1000m trip looks right in her wheelhouse off a break and she maps to settle close to the speed under Ashley Morgan, who gets in nicely at the weights carrying 54kg.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

HELLENIC BELLE (11)<\/strong> looks to have come back well for the Archibald Team.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The Hellbent filly ran on strongly fresh at Rosehill a few weeks ago in a deep fillies and mares race, held up briefly at the top of the straight, but really motoring home to finish just over half a length off as the runner-up. <\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

A back to back winner of the Starmaker and Wellington Boot earlier in the autumn, she looks ready for metro grade now with the soft gate offering Braith Nock every opportunity to find cover in transit. <\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

MAN OF WORTH (6)<\/strong> should see good support off an encouraging ruun at Randwick fresh from a spell.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Chris Waller\u2019s six-year-old stuck on well along the rail to finish third, beaten only two lengths by Cross Tasman.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

He\u2019s mixed his form over 13 starts but tends to feature in the money more often than not. A back to back winner at the midweeks earlier in the year, he looks poised to run a big race up over 1500m with a bit of wet track experience also on his resume. <\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

CHURCHILL\u2019S CHOICE (11)<\/strong> looks set to peak third-up over her preferred trip. <\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Nathan Doyle\u2019s mare has done little wrong in a pair of Group 3 contests this time in work, finishing fifth in the Tibbie Stakes first-up, before flashing home late along the inside to land 2.3 lengths off Unleeshing in the Angst Stakes here over the track and trip. <\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

She won\u2019t know herself carrying 53kg and has relished some sting out of the track in the past. <\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

LORD REMLAP (6)<\/strong> is fourth-up and set to peak over slightly longer now.<\/p>\n

The four-year-old son to Star Turn is coming off a tough run in The Kosciuszko that saw him caught wide from an awful barrier, although he still made up big ground in the run home for sixth.<\/p>\n

He was entitled to finish three lengths off that day, but should benefit from a more economical ride in transit this time from an inside gate.<\/p>\n

The blinkers come off the first time and the 1.5kg relief at the weights is key.<\/p>\n

I\u2019MINTOWIN (2)<\/strong> has seen good support after tackling this track and trip three weeks ago. <\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The son to Contributer was up on the speed and forced further forward than he may have liked from a wide gate, sticking on well however to finish fourth in behind Unleeshing.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

It\u2019s right to mention he\u2019s 0-3 over 1600m now, but this is still a winnable assignment coming off a very handy trial win at Hawkesbury between runs.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Drawn a better gate this time, he\u2019ll benefit from a more patient ride with Regan Bayliss taking over in the irons. <\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

This is slightly tougher now carrying 61.5kg for the first time, but after scratching from the Russell Balding Stakes on Saturday, it looks the right race for him. <\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

She\u2019s trialed up a treat in two recent hit-outs, motoring home from last to show plenty of late toe through the line. <\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
