Stake: 2.5 Units
Almost an Angel couldn’t have been more impressive when winning on debut, and although we’re not sure about the opposition, she put them away with ease.

Having race day form only adds to her appeal.

Skippers Canyon put the writing on the wall at Caulfield when scoring an impressive win, and the former Kiwi has massive upside.
The son of Belardo was always going to improve with the run under his belt, which means he should be harder to beat.

Stake: 2 Units
Caffettiera didn’t lose any admirers when running second at Cranbourne last week and being on the quick back-up is a good sign.
The Freedman-trained filly looked good when winning at Mornington, and the Godolphin-raced daughter of Too Darn Hot could have a bright future.
With a better run in transit, she should be the one to beat.
Stake: 1.5 Units
Different Gravy was different gravy to the field he faced at Flemington on Melbourne Cup Day, and he could prove too good for them again.
The three-year-old won by two lengths in a stakes race and rising from 1800m to 2000m should only help his chances of winning.
Mark Zahra is the man of the moment, so put him on top.
Stake: 2 Units
Gunning for back-to-back wins is Lyrics ‘N’ Song, who is out of champion Kiwi mare Melody Belle.
The royally bred filly was a touch unlucky not to win on debut at The Valley, but she won well at Cranbourne by 2.3 lengths over Hi Val.
It’s a good form guide, and she could rise to stakes level without much fuss.
Stake: 2 Units
It was a big run from Detonator Jack to finish second at Flemington, and it was good seeing him show his turn-of-foot.
It has been a long time between drinks, but the winner of $1.6 million has class on his side and that can’t be forgotten.
Ethan Brown is riding in career-best form, so he can’t be left out.
Stake: 1.5 Units
The former Kiwi has yet to finish worse than second from 10 starts, including six wins, and she went down fighting at Flemington.
She didn’t handle the heavy track conditions, so to run second behind Sunset Park is credit to her toughness and attitude.
Look for her to settle handy and give punters a good sight.
Stake: 2.5 Units
It was hard not to be impressed with the win from Boston Rocks last start. He picked them up nicely to score at Caulfield, and a repeat could be on the cards.

55.5kg is an excellent weight, so he goes on top.
Stake: 2 Units
Proved got back to her best form at Caulfield last start, making it six wins from seven starts.
