Tony’s shortlist
Fat Tony’s AI picks
8. Nola Christian
Six wins from 11 and fresh off a sharp win; wide draw is the only crook note, but she looks the class.
1. Flip Five Stones
Draws the pole and owns a tidy Northfield record; fresh trial says she is ready to give them plenty.
4. Gabbys Rockytop
Forget the ugly recent figures—Merriman aboard and his best mile makes him a dangerous rebound job.
5. Turbochargedpete
Trial winner with five wins here; old campaigner can bounce back and snag a slice, punters.
3. Esteso
Honest mare keeps landing near the money from good draws; more likely for the minors than the main cheque.

Race context
Race preview
GABBYS ROCKYTOP (4) has had two runs this prep without filling a placing. Added to the sequence last time over 1609m at this track, finishing 55 metres away from the winner in ninth. Meets a comparable field and he can discover winning ways. FLIP FIVE STONES (1) last appeared when eighth over 1609m at this track nine weeks ago. Expect a better effort to kick off this prep. NOLA CHRISTIAN (8) is worth plenty of thought off a last-start win by 7 metres at this track over 1609m. Something for the Multiples: ESTESO (3)
