Comments: I like the look of today. I reckon there's money to be made. Caulfield 3-7 Not A Copy has a win and four 2nds from his last five starts. That was his only win from his last 16 so he doesn't win out of turn but he was run down late by a smart horse (and one of our black bookers) In The Shadows, which is good form for this race. Doomben 7-1 Apache Cat hasn't looked like being beaten in his last three runs. Steve Arnold reckons Swick can beat him but that would be a surprise even though he ran 2nd to Apache Cat first up last time in. Hawkesbury 7-2 Royal Discretion looks a terrific chance to notch up another black type win with Tenant's Tiara looking the only threat.

Black Book: Belmont 6-1 Inarticulate was badly held up before getting a gap and scoring by a much smaller margin than he should have. Won't be a price we can back. Doomben 7-8 Vormista is racing for 2nd with Apache Cat in the race. Toowoomba 5-5 Azzaland is up in grade again but the way he wins you'd think he'll do so again.
