Inters Heat 7
Out to the 2536m and 3rd race in 8 days for contestents. Those assured of a start in next weeks final looking for as soft a run as possible, others trying to force there way in with maximum points adds more tricks to finding the winners. Chicago Bull draws the pole and impossible not to tip but 1.24 no thanks. Tiger Tara is tough as nails and a genuine threat if it wants to be in the breeze.

Soho Tribeca is safely through to the final and drawn poorly but remains fav. Lennytheshark very dissapointing at Bunbury but too good to dismiss and San Carlo gets the pole to show us if he is up too this class. Very tricky and not keen to bet but sticking with Soho Tribeca.
Inters Heat 9
Lazarus is series fav and yet to win a heat. While he really should here at $1.16 I'm suprised at final price as his impressive 2nd was at the bigger track at Bunbury.

Inters Heat 1.
Race of the night with NZ superstar Lazarus given the visitor's draw in 9 and WA's leading contender Soho Tribeca drawn to lead. While Lazarus wont lie down it's a tough schedule and I'm sure they wont want to cook him round 1 over 2100m sprint. Soho Tribeca to win

Wa's other hope Chicago Bull is $1.26. My concern is he is much better driven with a sit off a hot tempo. From this draw over 2100m he is probably going to try and lead. Hard not to tip but not backable. Dangers are Have Faith In Me, especially if it crosses and San Carlo.

Best Bet Ascot r8 Distant Trilogy; Was going to win in a canter at Bunbury before stepping in a hole and stumbling. Have been waiting to get my money back and was very excited when noms came out but opening price of $2.45 looks unders, surely we get slightly better first run in town.
