Tony’s shortlist
Fat Tony’s AI picks
8. Ruination
The hot favourite has the fastest proven straight-course form; looks the one to whack on top, punters.
5. Viliame
Fresh off a 17.95 win and a proper front-runner—main danger if he pings the lids.
7. Fumbles
Honest chaser with a slick 17.80 second last time; should be charging late for a cheque.
3. Straight Out
Keeps finding the placings around this strip; not flashy, but reliable for the exotics.
1. Angelo
Classy old campaigner from the red; needs to lift on recent runs but can sneak into fifth.

Race context
Race preview
MEPUNGA SHINE (2) sailed across from an outside draw last start to score an all-the-way win (22.85) at Richmond in a Mix 1/2/3 over 401m. Can make it back-to-back wins. RUINATION (8) was a last-start winner from the inside at this track and distance (17.72) after forging to the front and leading throughout, scoring by 1.5 lengths. Rates a leading chance again. ANGELO (1) has been out of the placings at his last couple but on the winners' heels when placing three back (30.40) in a Mix 1/2/3 at Wentworth Park. Has the ability and can find best this time. FUMBLES (7) is a last-start placegetter with solid claims again.
