Fat Tony’s AI picks
1. 4. Madam Phaedra
Fat Tony says: red-hot runner — expect her to jump, lead and hold; grab it while it's hot.
2. 2. Leonardo Jewel
Track specialist — sticks on gamely and will be right in it; reliable money play.
3. 6. Cocoon The Food
Front-runner's threat off longer trips — will finish hard late, respect the fave.
4. 8. Boston Junior
Wide and consistent — a sure trier for a placing, don’t overlook him.
5. 3. Apricot Slice
In-form grinder — keeps hitting the frame, can pinch a top-five if gets a run.

Race preview
BOSTON JUNIOR (8) settled down midfield and held his position to the line when finishing 4th (21.60) at this track. The form from his last run stacks up well. Has ability and is a key runner. LEONARDO JEWEL (2) has a strong record here with four wins and two placings from 11 starts. Hit the frame latest (21.55) when third at this track in a Class 4/5. Makes strong appeal on best. COCOON THE FOOD (6) box seated before sticking on well to finish 6 lengths away in second (31.00) at Manukau in a Class 4/5 over 527m. Beaten by a very smart dog last start . Racing well and deserves a win. MADAM PHAEDRA (4) is a last start winner who can measure up again. Steps up in grade but has been flying in recent runs.
