The southerly wind is pumping today, so a strong headwind.
Race 1 icy Blast and Kyomai useful starts, so the first timers will need to be quite good to beat them.
Race 2 MSW so watch out for the low weighted ones. Ygritte should prefer the 1200m and is the one to beat. Mari Marie has a shout at the weights. Simply Beautiful should be in the shakeup.. Go Like Flo has scope for improvement.
race 3 The two best horses have been scratched, so the first timers just have San Pedro and Barnbougle to beat, so probably a first timer.
Race 4 A difficult start to the pick 6- many with chances. Busy Lizzie a wide draw but looks best in at the weights. Fields of Green has a good draw and a sporting weight, so she is my first choice.
Race 5 Competitive. Fort Red can follow up. Ponte Pietra plenty scope for improvement and the one to beat. Winter Pearl better than last two runs and will go close on his best form.
Race 6 Bright Green and Gladatorian are best in at the weights, but both come off breaks and fitness may be an issue. Piroshka is fit and could score if the other two need the run.
Race 7 Our filly Everlasting is fit and well, but Fourie has jumped ship to She's My Captain. Hopefully his agent has miscalculated! A very open race, but I'm hoping that we can fight out the finish. Allende finally put it all together last time, and looks the one to beat.
Race 8 Pacaya is best weighted if he can reproduce the form of a year ago, but comes off a long break. Silvano's Dasher is my first choice. Imilenzeyokududuma and Look for Hounds must be respected. See It Again is a classy 3yo and could also win.
race 9 An open race. Evening Primrose is my pick, from Bye Bye Bombshell and Black Silver but just about anything can win this.
Race 10 Another open race where Snaith has a very strong hand, but I'm going for Aeneas.
