Tony’s shortlist
Fat Tony’s AI picks
8. Five Grand
Prat aboard, blinkers on, and that debut was pure class—my top pick, sweetheart.
11. Hammerin Henry
Cox colt chased home well first-up; improvement makes him a serious hammer.
9. Mcmoon
Speedy Weaver runner maps to control it; tough customer for the exotics.
7. Freedom Charge
Two honest placings and Ortiz sticks—blinkers could sharpen the old hustle.
10. Maximilian
Saez and blinkers offer upside; needs to bridge the gap but can grab a cheque.

Race preview
FIVE GRAND (8) was well fancied on debut last start and was not far off the mark, finishing third and beaten 1.5 lengths over 1106m at this track (Dirt). Has ability and looks sure to measure up. HAMMERIN HENRY (11) was well supported on debut last start and turned in a strong effort to finish third over 1106m at this track (Dirt). Will be very hard to beat with that run under the belt. FREEDOM CHARGE (7) was in the firing line on the turn and finished third last start over 1207m at this track (Dirt), beaten 6 lengths. Likely improver with bright prospects. MCMOON (9) did a fair job on debut last time out, finishing 5 lengths from the winner in second over 1207m at this track (Dirt). Can figure in the finish.
