Jackson Oldham
LAY: 13. Thalestris (WIN) for 2 units (Rated at $7.25)
Both Davida and Bedourie showed promise at their first preparation and Blue Moon Summit has been good this preparation, I’m against Thalestris, who looks too short off some only average Sydney trials.

Jackson Oldham
BACK: 2. Flamboyant Lad (WIN) for 2 units (Rated at $2.05)
Flamboyant Lad started near the market on debut at Sandown in a strong maiden (winner was Bossy Benita). He was pulled up with an issue, has since been gelded and his latest jumpout from the front was sensational work, expect to see a much improved horse today.

8. Bajaria
13. Rohesia
11. Irreverent
12. Pomah

Bajaria jumped out well prior to her debut and ran accordingly first-up at Bendigo with the pattern against, she likely sits closer from the draw and up in trip suits.

14. Seychelles
1. Diesel Desmond
4. Smother
5. Supremacy
Betting Strategy
Diesel Desmond has jumped out very stylishly, I always worry about the map for horses from this stable, Seychelles is another who has jumped out well and the booking of M.Dee and market support suggests plenty of intent.
10. Flowerdale
5. Tournelle
7. Jenni Intiba
6. Eskimo
Betting Strategy
Flowerdale maps fora perfect run but is limited in ability goes on top but no edge.
14. Southern Crescent
11. Lady Potato Head
2. Jewel Bay
6. Saxon Spot
Betting Strategy
Another very tricky race, Southern Crescent was terrific last start, bursting to win a race but I can’t in good faith, trust the stable.
4. Adelante
10. Home Zone
15. Artpark
8. Ania
Betting Strategy
Not much between Home Zone and Adelante, as the market is indicating, giving the slight edge to Adelante, who is trending the right way.
