Midnight Blue (Ascot Race 6 No. 1)
This four-year-old So You Think gelding has three wins and five places from 12 starts. He ran on strongly for a 0.75 length win over 2200m at Ascot on 21 November, then ran on strongly to just miss and finish 0.08 length 2nd over 2200m at Ascot on 5 December. He likes this track and distance, William Pike goes back on and he should win again.

Each Way
Serenity Bay (Ascot Race 7 No. 8):
This five-year-old mare trained by Grant and Alana Williams has five wins and eight places from 13 starts. At the end of last campaign she ran on for 1.03, 0.6 lengths 3rd over 1400m at Belmont on 15 August, then resumed after 14 weeks for 0.27 lengths 2nd in the Listed Carbine Club of WA Stakes over 1400m at Ascot on 21 November. She has never been out of the trifecta and looks a good each-way bet here.

This five-year-old Frost Giant mare is the early favourite in this Fillies and mares benchmark 66+ over 1200m.

Key Comments Expecting on pace runners to be suited. The best bet is a progressive type coming off a large maiden win and can go right on with things in a suitable step up in grade. Best Bet Perfectly Good (Kilmore Race 6 No. 12) Drawn to perfection and a lot to like about the last start win when backed off the map and winning with ease. Was a real eye catcher and a good thing beaten the start prior and form lines

Key Comments A small 7 race card takes place. Expecting Andrew Mallyon to be the jockey to follow as he rides mostly favourites for the card. Expecting all runners to have their chance on this track. Best Bet Written Fame (Murwillumbah Race 6 No. 5) Written Fame is a consistent runner who is yet to miss the top 4 this prep. This 4yo Gelding is 2/3 on this track and has won fourth up in the past. The only niggle is its record

Key Comments The track is in the good range. The best bet looks very hard to beat with Andrew Gibbons aboard and has been subject to some very strong early market support. Best Bet Calga Power (Tamworth Race 2 No. 9) Strong effort on debut when running a commendable fourth and should get every hope from the solid draw in this. Maps for a tidy run, Gibbons sticks, drops in grade and looks very hard to beat as the market suggests. Check odds

Key Comments On pace runners should be suited. The track is in the good range. The best bet mixes its form but should really appreciate a decent drop in grade and can return to its winning ways. Best Bet Cyclone Harmony (Bairnsdale Race 7 No. 2) Keen on the chances of Cyclone Harmony who is the class runner of the race and capable of a strong run when things fall into place for it. Barrier 6 should ensure a good run and both
