BEST BET
PLAYLIST (Race 7 No.9): Didn't have the best of luck when resuming at Geelong but will be much fitter. Expecting her to be hard to hold out.
NEXT BEST
DOLLAR SHOT (Race 6 No.12): The consistent performer was too strong at Bairnsdale second-up. Should be able to measure up to a harder assignment at Seymour on Friday.
BLAZING SWORD (Race 8 No.2): Won impressively at Albury before closing steadily at Sandown last time. Looks ready for the step to 2000m now.
VALUE BET
NO OVERTAKING (Race 4 No.6): The four-year-old led and tried hard when placed on the synthetic on debut. She gets onto the turf on Friday and could be harder to run down.
LAY OF THE DAY
VALLEY KING (Race 8 No.4): Equal favourite in betting on his Seymour assignment but he won't get his preferred heavy ground in which he was well held at Warrnambool last start.
