Tony’s shortlist
Fat Tony’s AI picks
6. Amusing Mischief
The old pro is knockin' on the door, see? Solid local form and the class edge makes him the one.
3. Bigdaddysboy
Two sharp recent placings and loves this 1106m caper—danger if the favourite gives an inch.
4. Kaladin
Fresh legs, reliable first-up record, and market support—he's got a live look about him, pal.
2. Joking Way
Third-up and drawn sweetly; not a killer, but he can sneak into the money.
5. Bold Ambition
Long break is the worry, but his best stuff puts him in the frame at a price, capisce?

Race context
Race preview
BIGDADDYSBOY (3) is building towards a win with placings at his last two runs, the latest effort a third over 1207m at this track (Dirt) when beaten 5 lengths. This is his optimum trip with two wins from four starts and is among the leading chances. AMUSING MISCHIEF (6) met with solid support last start over 1207m at this track (Dirt) when third, beaten 5 lengths. Form at this track is solid. Bold showing expected. KALADIN (4) resumes from a spell of nine weeks. Has filled a minor placing at each of his three first-up runs. Opened last prep with a third over 1673m at Parx. One of the better prospects. JOKING WAY (2) hasn't been able to break through for an extended period, the latest effort a fourth over 1207m at this track (Dirt) after being prominent at the corner. Placed to advantage and can feature in the finish.
