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: 2-10-5-1
On pace runners, 1, 6, 8, 9. LANDING GEAR traveled keenly in transit at Newcastle before he didn't shirk his task in a race that wasn't run to suit. He has scope to improve. INFINITE SKY paid too high a price fro drawing a wide gate at Newcastle. She can make her presence felt when she now makes her Illawarra Grange debut. CADMEAN must be forgiven for his unplaced Newcastle effort at his second start in his first campaign. There were excuses on the day. SCOOP THE POOL was too good for all except the winner when he was produced within this distance range first up at Nowra. He can only now present race-fitter. SNITZEL'S GIRL was a Canterbury Friday night acceptor but she will be suitably placed if saved for this race instead!
