Comments: Kembla Grange 4-6 Zazabeau has obviously the most sound of horses but he drops a thousand grades here so you'd expect him to get home. I think that Ascot 6-1 Carbineer is a good chance to beat the expected favourite, Install, in that race so he'll be good odds. I also think that Flemington 7-13 Barlinnie is going to run a good race at his first go in black type company.

Black Book: Ascot 8-8 Second Omen is pretty well placed here for a good first up performance. She'll be nice e/w odds and I'll assess her BB status after this run. Ascot 8-13 Jestatune was a beaten favourite first run back from Victoria. She's run well in 3YO fillies' company and should run well here but she's going to be too short to back. Rosehill 8-12 Ruby Bre's first up run was too bad to be true so we'll give her another run to prove she's worthy of remaining in the BB.
