Something small each way on the topweight, (1) Centroid, who is clearly going to be suited up to 2100m. Half-brother to superstar mare Enable, he debuted for the Cumani stable at Sandown and was beaten 10.5L in a much stronger race, and I do note that he has run very well in two synthetic runs in stronger grade in the UK. Probably still won’t be fully wound up, but aside from the short priced favourite and the stablemate, these horses have all well and truly found their mark.

(4) Bainbridge will be hard to beat up in trip again and pushing forward from a wide gate.

Tip: (1) Centroid- $41.00/9.00 at Sportsbet

Betting Strategy: 0.25/0.75 units E/W Centroid

Odds Last Updated: July 20, 2021, 4:31pm (AEDT)

The class of the field looks to be (11) Puckapunyal, having her 2nd Victorian prep. She was strongly backed last prep at The Valley and didn’t look entirely comfortable on the tight track in stronger grade. Her WA form, albeit over a touch further, is very good for this and she does generally race fresh. The first jumpout on the synthetic was okay behind Tuvalu which is a good reference, and the 2nd one was good over 900m. The stable are going very well at the moment, as is Brett Prebble, with the two combining for a 52.9% POT this season. Keen.

Tip: (11) Puckapunyal- $3.20 at Bet365

Betting Strategy: 2.5 units WIN Puckapunyal

Trent Crebbin

Trent’s interest in the thoroughbred started out as a spark with Black Caviar, became a flame with Winx, and has now intensified into a burning obsession with Arcadia Queen. He started out throwing loose change on random trifectas at the pub, but it wasn’t long before he was watching replays and looking at sectionals, weights and markets. Trent specializes in Victorian racing and hopes his first winner as an owner is just around the corner.
