Tony’s shortlist
Fat Tony’s AI picks
1. Manila Sun
Fat Tony says the red draw and honest recent placings make this one the cleanest play, capisce?
6. Be Bear Aware
First look at 350m after a tougher 440m debut; the market likes the Bear, and so do I.
2. Velocity Summer
Two fair runs here and gets the inside alley—Tony reckons she can sneak into the quinella.
7. Bourne Soldier
Has proven she can run a place at this track and trip; include the Soldier in exotics.
8. Buckeroo Mary
Not a killer record, sweetheart, but her recent straight-track third gives her a rough chance for fifth.

Race context
Race preview
BE BEAR AWARE (6) settled well back early on debut and always towards the tail to finish sixth (25.74) at this track over 440m. Can get off the mark this time. MANILA SUN (1) shows ability but remains a maiden after eight starts. Was in the placings again last time finishing third (18.85) at Wagga. Expected to feature. VELOCITY SUMMER (2) showed little early speed at her last couple, the latest finishing fourth (20.44) in a Maiden at this track. Key runner who gets her chance to atone. TAKE FLIGHT (4) is in the mix following a brief let-up.
