Kalgoorlie
THANK YOU TONY CROOK & JIM ADDISON MAIDEN ($14K)
Buon Amici stands out as the only runner with a career placing, albeit one. This horse has shown glimpses of ability and the step up to 1408m after a few runs this preparation looks ideal. With a good barrier and a jockey who knows the horse, this could be the day it breaks through.
THANK YOU BEACON MINERALS & FLANCO MAIDEN ($14K)
THANK YOU HAMPTON MINING & CIVIL HANDICAP ($16K)
Lavish Charm is the standout based on career win and place percentages, indicating a horse with significant talent and consistency. The barrier draw of 4 is favourable, and with Lucy Fiore aboard, this combination looks very hard to beat in this class of race.
THANK YOU MILES ROCK BREAKING HANDICAP ($16K)
Nistirith boasts the best place strike rate in the field (83%) and is a last-start winner, indicating strong current form. With a favourable barrier and a top trainer/jockey combination, this horse is clearly the one to beat in this class.
THANK YOU MILES CONTRACTING HANDICAP ($16K)
Puissance Playboy stands out with a solid place record and a favourable inside barrier. While its win rate is modest, its consistency suggests it's a strong contender in this class, especially with a good draw. This horse appears to be the most reliable pick for a top-three finish in a race lacking dominant form.
THANK YOU PENNS CARTAGE & SALT BUSH CONTRACTING HANDICAP ($16K)
Despite the wide barrier, Please Mizter boasts the highest career win percentage in the field and has shown ability to overcome adversity. With a top jockey aboard and a trainer in good form, this horse looks to be the class runner, even without recent form data.
THANK YOU TOPEX & ACCESS HIRE HANDICAP ($16K)
Just Famous boasts one of the highest career win percentages in the field and has drawn an ideal barrier. With Peter Fernie's stable in good form and Lucy Fiore in the saddle, all indicators point to a strong performance, making this horse a top contender.
