Odds Last Updated: August 16, 2021, 4:01pm (AEDT)

The McEvoy yard have an excellent strike rate on the Ballarat synthetic, especially when they combine with the airborne Josh Richards. They team up with (3) Champs D’or who comes here first up and has won two jumpouts leading in. He maps to ideally find the front from barrier 1 and will be very hard to run down.

Tip: (3) Champs D'or-$3.00 at Bet365

Betting Strategy: 1.5 units WIN Champs D'or

Odds Last Updated: August 16, 2021, 4:32pm (AEDT)

Rinse and repeat for this race, siding with Richards and McEvoy again. (2) Vahash bolted in last start in bm58 grade, leading all the way. That was his first go on synthetic and he clearly relished it after struggling on wet tracks prior. Maps for another soft run and will be hard to beat again.

(7) Yulong Status gets D Lane on but I think he’ll need further than 1400m and potentially wants a track with give in it.

Tip: (2) Vahash- $2.50 at Sportsbet

Betting Strategy: 2 units WIN Vahash

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.
