Race Tip
TOYGER (1) is close to breaking through after finishing second last start over 4½f at Muswellbrook when he was always up in the leading division. Must raise the bar but a win is not out of the question. ESRAAR (7) is a maiden galloper resuming. After a lay-off of five-and-a-half months. Closed last campaign with a seventh over 5f at Sandown-Hillside, beaten 6 lengths. Fitter for two trials, placing most recently. Set to run well. RUBI'S SERVE (5) resumes from a lay-off of five months. Could only manage to finish fifth at the latest run over 6f at Coffs Harbour. Placed in a recent trial. Leading player on best figures - bold showing expected. CIRCLE OF LOVE (6) stepped out on her debut over 5f at Hawkesbury three-and-a-half weeks ago and finished ninth, beaten 3.5 lengths. Will be better for that run and is expected to go well.
