Ain’tnodeeldun (Flemington Race 5 No. 2)
This Dundeel colt trained by Anthony Freedman at Mornington has won two of his six starts. He charged to the front at the 200m and was strong to go clear for a 5 length win over 1615m at Sale on 24 September, then he was well back and came with a big run to take over at the 150m and held off late challengers for a 0.7 length win in the Listed Hill Smith Stakes over 1800m at Morphettville on 10 October. He has been to Flemington once before when he finished 4th in the Listed Anzac Day Stakes over 1400m. Looks capable of bringing up a hat-trick of wins.

Each Way
Tavidance (Flemington Race 6 No. 11):
Trained by Mick Price at Caulfield, this Tavistock gelding has four wins and two places from eight starts. He was slowly away, laid in and ducked in sharply when 3.9 lengths 6th over 1600m at Caulfield on 25 July, then settled 3rd and exploded clear at the 300m to win by 6 lengths over 1720m at Flemington on 8 August. He resumes here after as weeks and goes well first-up, making him worth an each-way bet.

Best Lay
Yao Dash (Flemington Race 10 No. 15):
This four-year-old Smart missile gelding trained by Gai Waterhouse and Adrian Bott is the early favourite in the Listed MSS Security Sprint over 1200m. He was beaten at the 350m when he finished 7 lengths 6th in the Listed Fireball Stakes on 7 March, then was winded badly when 5.6 lengths 6th in the Listed South Pacific Stakes over 1400m at Randwick on 11 April. He has had a 29 week spell and has won two recent trials at Randwick but is up against some race fit competition with good recent form.
