Saturday night specials
It's Breeders Challenge night at Menangle and five Group 1's headline a stellar card.
Below are my three best plays for the night, including a $9 pop worth an each way crack.
Menangle Race 1 #2 Loyalist (2) $3.90
Loyalist can look to get us off to a winning start.
The five-year-old, who has been excellent since crossing the Tasman, gets a friendly draw here and the services of gun driver Blake Hughes in this drivers' invitational event.
I am hoping Loyalist can find the fence in the early stages and from there will be too good for his rivals.
Go Jack Ryan represents the best value in the race.
Menangle Race 4 #10 Madrid (8) $2.80
The three-year-old fillies hit the track and I am with Madrid .
There is no doubting the class of the two favourites in this event, however an attribute which could prove vital tonight is gate speed and Madrid possesses that in spades.
Steno has beaten Madrid in a previous battle but I can see the tables being turned tonight.
Miss Ex at big odds looks an each-way play perhaps.
Menangle Race 7 #6 Wolf Stride (5) $9.00
The value play of the night for mine is Wolf Stride.
Darren Binskin's star gelding looks to have come back this preparation in career-best form and is a major threat despite this very classy field.
Honolua Bay brings superb Victorian form, however if the speed on I can see Wolf rattling home at each-way odds.
