<p><strong>Point King shapes as the value play in Moonee Valley's Race 5</strong>, with Jamie Melham aboard for the Anthony and Sam Freedman stable. The lightly-raced galloper boasts a perfect record at this track and distance - one start, one win - and crucially, that victory came first-up.</p> <p>After a lengthy spell, Point King returns to the scene of his previous triumph, where he demonstrated his class under similar fresh conditions. Hee represents solid value against current favourite Middle Earth, who faces the challenging task of backing up just seven days after the gruelling Caulfield Cup.</p> <p>The small field size could see significant market movements on race day, particularly if punters latch onto Point King's compelling form line. His proven ability at the Valley, combined with the Freedman stable's expertise with first-up runners, makes this a genuine winning chance.</p> <p>With Middle Earth potentially feeling the effects of his recent Caulfield Cup campaign, Point King's freshness could prove the decisive factor in what shapes as a competitive affair.</p> <p><a href="https://www.sportsbet.com.au/horse-racing/australia-nz/moonee-valley/race-5-9759562">Markets available here.</a></p>
