6.00 p.m. R2 2 Our Secret Weapon (3 g Outreach - Poppy's Pond) - Vlad Duric; drew barrier 6 of 12 in the $75,000 Restricted Maiden 1100 metres on the poly track and carries 57kg. In a strong field, he does have the ability to feature in the first four.

6.00 p.m. R2 13 Elliot Ness (3 g Written Tycoon - Walk With Attitude) - unfixed; drew barrier 8 of 12 in the $75,000 Restricted Maiden 1100 metres on the poly track and carries 57kg. Ballot one, he is unlikely to gain a start.

6.30 p.m. R3 1 Federation (5 g Written Tycoon - Bloomingdale Miss) - Aiman Kamaruddin (a3); drew barrier 1 of 14 in the $50,000 Class 4 1200 metres on turf and carries 56kg. He is enjoying good form and finished second fresh-up - he's ideally drawn (1) to rate a top three contender.

6.30 p.m. R3 6 Street Cry Success (6 g Street Cry - Koala Bear) - Marc Lerner; drew barrier 5 of 14 in the $50,000 Class 4 1200 metres on turf and carries 57kg. He is an expected improver as his campaign gets underway.

7.00 p.m. R4 2 Happy Friday (4 g Shooting to Win - Enide) - Andrew John; drew barrier 5 of 12 in the $20,000 Maiden 1200 metres on the poly track and carries 57.5kg. Following a solid last start performance for third, has has the ability and form to make his presence felt at the business end.

7.00 p.m. R4 11 Wednesday (3 g Super One - Shufetish) - Mohd Zaki; drew the outside barrier (12) in the $20,000 Maiden 1200 metres on the poly track and carries 54.5kg. Drawn widest (14), he has been disappointing and he needs to lift his game.

7.00 p.m. R4 13 Cassius (3 g Street Boss - Je T'aime) - unfixed; drew barrier 4 of 12 in the $20,000 Maiden 1200 metres on the poly track and carries 54.5kg. Ballot one, he is unlikely to gain a start.

7.30 p.m. R5 2 Latent Power (4 g Shamexpress - D J Lightning) - Aiman Kamaruddin (a3); drew barrier 10 of 12 in the $30,000 Class 5 1000 metres on the poly track and carries 56kg. He is a difficult horse on the training track, and he needs to improve sharply.

7.30 p.m. R5 3 Take a Chance (3 g Star Witness - Hilylia) - Jerlyn Seow (a4); drew barrier 1 of 12 in the $30,000 Class 5 1000 metres on the poly track and carries 54.5kg. Not often we run a first starter in Class 5, so his prospects are a touch unknown.

8.00 p.m. R6 11 Mustengo (5 g Minstrel Court - Zabba) - Aiman Kamaruddin (a3); drew barrier 7 of 12 in the $50,000 Class 4 1700 metres on the poly track and carries 47kg. He rates a dangerous light weight chance.

8.30 p.m. R7 1 Red Riding Wood (7 g Redwood - Dreamcatcher) - Vlad Duric; drew barrier 2 of 14 in the $30,000 Class 5 1600 metres on turf and carries 59kg.  He has a big weight to carry but does have the top rider aboard and rates a first four chance.

8.30 p.m. R7 8 Big Regards (7 g Darci Brahma - Molly Coco) - Jerlyn Seow (a4); drew barrier 1 of 14 in the $30,000 Class 5 1600 metres on turf and carries 51.5kg. He needs to jump out well and any rain would aid his prospects.

9.00 p.m. R8 14 Lai Mak Mak (9 g O'Reilly - Pretty) - unfixed; drew barrier 5 of 14 in the $30,000 Class 5 1600 metres on turf and carries 59kg. Ballot two, he is unlikely to gain a start.

9.30 p.m. R9 3 Sacred Rebel (6 g Sepoy - Pandoro De Lago) - Aiman Kamaruddin (a3); drew barrier 7 of 12 in the $85,000 Class 2 1100 metres on the poly track and carries 52kg. He faces a very strong field this evening but he is in good form and he rates a top four chance.
