5.30 p.m. R2 8 Our Final Offer  (3 g Deep Field - Egyptian Melody) - Oscar Chavez; drew barrier 6 of 12 in the $75,000 Restricted Maiden 1100 metres on the poly-track and carries 57kg. He has ability and rates a top four chance.

5.30 p.m. R2 13 King Arthur  (3 g I Am Invincible - Pentasia) - unfixed; drew the outside barrier (13) in the $75,000 Restricted Maiden 1100 metres on the poly-track and carries 57kg. Ballot one, he is unlikely to gain a start.

6.00 p.m. R3 2 Man of Mystery  (6 g All Too Hard - Black Minx) - Jerlyn Seow (a4); drew barrier 4 of 12 in the $50,000 Class 4 1100 metres on the poly-track and carries 53kg. In good form, he rates a top four prospect given the weight relief - the first of a trio of starters for Mark Walker in the third on the programme.

6.00 p.m. R3 6 Cousteau  (6 g Exceed and Excel - Maritime) - Marc Lerner; drew barrier 3 of 12 in the $50,000 Class 4 1100 metres on the poly-track and carries 55kg. Ideally drawn (3), he rates a top four chance.

6.00 p.m. R3 8 Brutus  (4 g Rubick - Harvest Queen) - CC Wong; drew barrier 1 of 12 in the $50,000 Class 4 1100 metres on the poly-track and carries 53kg. Fresh-up, and boosted by a light weight, he can post a first four finish with the barrier one advantage.

6.30 p.m. R4 7 Marcus Antonius  (3 g Sepoy - Panda's Turn) - Vlad Duric; drew barrier 2 of 12 in the $30,000 Class 5 1700 metres on the poly-track and carries 56.5kg. A last start winner who has trained on well since, he looks a top four chance with champion rider aboard.

7.00 p.m. R5 8 Sacred Judgement  (5 g So You Think - Rose Ransom) - CC Wong; drew barrier 6 of 12 in the $50,000 Class 4 1200 metres on turf and carries 52.5kg. He needs to lift to make an impact.

7.00 p.m. R5 14 Motakhayyel  (4 g Snitzel - Tetsuko) - unfixed; drew barrier 10 of 12 in the $50,000 Class 4 1200 metres on turf and carries 56kg. Sitting at two on the ballot, he is unlikely to make the field.

7.30 p.m. R6 3 Our Secret Weapon (3 g Outreach - Poppy's Pond) - Vlad Duric; drew barrier 3 of 11 in the $30,000 Class 5 1000 metres on the poly-track and carries 59kg. He is assigned a big weight (59kg), but on the upside has drawn nicely (3) and has the top rider to rate a genuine first four proposition.

8.00 p.m. R7 1 Barbeque  (5 g Helmet - Heat of the Fire) - CC Wong; drew barrier 4 of 12 in the $30,000 Class 5 1200 metres on turf and carries 55kg. Working well the past week, he is up to a first four finish.

8.00 p.m. R7 2 Lai Mak Mak (9 g O'Reilly - Pretty) - Jerlyn Seow (a4); drew barrier 2 of 12 in the $30,000 Class 5 1200 metres on turf and carries just 50.5kg. In good form, with a light weight, look for him finishing off stongly.

9.30 p.m. R10 3 Savvy Command  (4 g Savabeel - Best Command) - Jerlyn Seow (a4); drew barrier 3 of 12 in the $70,000 Class 3 1400 metres on turf and carries 53.5kg. A last start winner who faces a tough field here, he has drawn well, will carry a lightweight and does have top four claims.

9.30 p.m. R10 8 Axel  (5 g Darci Brahma - Josephines Fortune) - CC Wong; drew the outside barrier (14) in the $70,000 Class 3 1400 metres on turf and carries 55.5kg. Drawn widest (14) and he needs more distance as well as a lot of luck.

9.30 p.m. R10 11Nationality (6 g Commands - Milliyet) - Oscar Chavez; drew barrier 7 of 12 in the $70,000 Class 3 1400 metres on turf and carries 54kg. He may be better suited in Class 4.

10.00 p.m. R11 1Master Ryker (5 g Sebring - Hanky Panky) - Jerlyn Seow (a4); drew barrier 1 of 12 in the $50,000 Class 4 1100 metres on the poly-track and carries 55kg. Back in grade, he is ideally drawn (1), he has good each-way claims.

10.00 p.m. R11 2Aftermath  (3 g Spirit of Boom - Elusive Gift) - Vlad Duric; drew barrier 7 of 12 in the $50,000 Class 4 1100 metres on the poly-track and carries 57kg. He has been freshened, and ridden patiently with a champion jockey in the saddle, he will make his presence felt at the business end.

10.00 p.m. R11 4Entertainer (4 g Zoustar - Laughing) - CC Wong; drew barrier 6 of 12 in the $50,000 Class 4 1100 metres on the poly-track and carries 57kg. In good form before being freshened, he likes to go forward, and is among the top four prospects.
