<p>The Group 1 Toorak Handicap winner heads into Randwick Race 10 over 1500 metres as the favourite, and there's plenty to like about this assignment. Transatlantic's last-start victory at Caulfield over the mile showcased exactly the tactical speed that'll serve him well on Saturday - up on pace, tucked to the line, and controlling the tempo.</p> <p>What makes this even more appealing is Tony Gollan's shrewd placement strategy. Moving from handicaps into set penalties conditions gives Transatlantic a significant tactical advantage, and the master trainer knows exactly how to position his horses for maximum impact.</p> <p>Tommy Berry takes the reins, and with Transatlantic's proven on-speed racing pattern, expect him to position prominently from the gates and make it tough for anything to run him down. The 1500-metre trip at Randwick should suit perfectly - it's that sweet spot where his natural speed advantage can be maximised without getting caught out by a genuine staying test.</p> <p>This looks like the sort of race where the favourite justifies the market confidence.</p> <p><a href="https://www.sportsbet.com.au/horse-racing/australia-nz/randwick/race-10-9759452">Markets available here.</a></p>
