Race Tip

TARPAULIN (2) is a last start winner over 5½f at Randwick, making it two victories from three appearances this time in. In form and expected to measure up again. Group 3 placegetter BLUE STRATUM (1) made it two wins on the bounce last start when he scored by a nose over 5f at Moonee Valley. Winning rider Beau Mertens retains the mount. Taking on a better field but he is worth serious consideration. WONDER BOY (4) drifted back then closed strongly to score on debut over 6f at Flemington ten weeks ago and has not been produced since. Among the chances. WINCHESTER (6) raced on the pace over 5f at Sandown-Hillside last time and went on to win by a long neck. Do not underestimate.
