Tony’s shortlist

Fat Tony’s AI picks

1

2. Coal Fire

Fat Tony says the inside draw, proven 1700m record and classy Tour Party form make him the one to beat.

2

6. Lucky Luka

Two straight wins before the break and Herlihy knows every angle—major danger despite the wider gate.

3

4. Dino

Undefeated and tough as nails; Butcher aboard gives this hat-trick chance plenty of bite.

4

8. We Will Rise Again

Fresh winner with strong juvenile stakes form—wide draw is the tax, but he can still muscle into it.

5

3. Bamm Bamm

Closed well behind Dino first-up and gets a kinder alley; sneaky First 4 operator, punters.

Race preview

COAL FIRE (2) resumes from a spell of five-and-a-half months after closing off last campaign in good form, the last run being a solid second over 1700m at this track. No excuses from this advantageous draw. Will have plenty of admirers. LUCKY LUKA (6) resumes from a spell of ten weeks after closing off last campaign in good form, scoring at his last appearance over 2200m at this track. Well-placed to take this out. DINO (4) is one of the main contenders after winning his past two starts, the latest at Cambridge Raceway two weeks ago. Difficult to ignore that sort of form. WE WILL RISE AGAIN (8) is the next elect off a last-start win by 1.4 metres at this track over 2200m when fresh-up from a spell.
