State-based Tote pools across Australia have been combined into a single national Tote ('One Pool'), meaning there is now only one set of Tote dividends nationwide.
This industry-wide change may affect the prices available and how some Tote bets are settled. Tote (TO) now represents the combined national Tote ('One Pool'), while Tote+ (TO+) returns the better of the Tote dividend and Starting Price (SP).
Other rules:Only final field runners subject to deductions
Selections: 6-2-10-8
1000m Maiden Plate. No fewer than seven could be on debut. All have had at least one public trial, all have at least trialed once on Soft ground. S & J Lee good for no less than three, and all three are among them newcomers. Settled upon one of them, saddlecloth 6 - PRESTIGE SOTIRIO. The 3yo won a recent trial by over three lengths on a Soft 7. The placegetters in that heat had already shed their maiden status. PARTING THE SEAS wasn't far off then 4th home 1st-up, and was kept safe in the betting that day which is a good sign. Perhaps SUNNY SIDE STREET is next best, placed 3rd in only trial, both ahead are yet to race.
