Flemington ( Turnbull Stakes G1 ) & Randwick ( 3 G1's Epsom, Metropolitan & Flight)

Flemington and Randwick are both posted as Good 3 and dry warm conditions at both tracks.

Randwick (and Sydney) have their premier Spring day with three G1's. It's a good day's racing but overall it's hard not to conclude that Sydney's Spring Carnival has wilted badly in the last few years. The Epsom this year is way below the expected standard and many of the other races are lacking any real depth. The Metropolitan is a least very competitive although it's gone backwards since the distance was changed. No early bets at Randwick today although there may be a couple later on.

Flemington has a typically tough competitive card and there's no lack of depth here.

Race 5
Chautauqua was a most impressive winner here first up. He may turn out to be the new sprinting star but he meets Temple Of Boom 6kg's worse for the 2.5 length he beat him last time. That's a big turnaround and Temple is a rock solid performer here and at the odds differential I'd much rather back him. The NZ mare Bounding has very strong claims too but she's a mare resuming and has bigger targets although her first up stats are very good.

Advised Bet: Temple Of Boom 1.10 units at 4.70 or better-take the 5.50 Sportsbet avialable to noon


Race 7
I'm going with two here that may still have a bit more to offer.It's mighty competitive but both Entirely Platinum and  Stipulate appeal at the available odds.

Advised Bets: Stipulate 0.55 units at 10.0 or better-monitor
                        Entirely Platinum 0.45 units at 12.0 or better-take the 16.0 with Sportsbet available until noon
