Race Tip

OMNIC (1) is a maiden with two minor placings to his name. Could not improve on that record when resuming last start, winding up in eighth over 6f at this track. Placed at his only other second up appearance. Backmarker who keeps coming. Will be tough to stop. BERTUS (5) sat close to the pace last time out but faded to finish eighth, beaten 5.5 lengths over this journey at Kembla Grange. Must respect the stable decision to remove the blinkers. Major player. BENAMERA (7) returned from a lay-off two-and-a-half weeks ago when he was beaten 3.5 lengths into fifth over 5½f at Hawkesbury. Likely improver with strong prospects. BLEND OF THREE (2) returns after ten months in the paddock. Closed the last campaign with a 11th over 1m at Wyong. Should be forward enough following two recent trials. Has ability and is worth including.
