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: 1-8-5-9
TIME ANGEL has been a beaten favourite at her last couple but just keeps racing well and is deserving of a win. No wins since the spring of 2024 for APPLE CIDER but he is also in consistent form. DENSETSU ran a better race last start and has been in the placings at both of his runs here. GARGANTUAN was back in winning form back to this trip last start. WANNABEAPOODLE won first up two preps ago and has been twice successful at this distance. BLACK PANTHER can improve down in grade. PRINCE RUBERT got too far back last time, can improve into a placing here.
