Mornington – Race 1 12:55pm AEST – No. 2 Kings Full
It has been a while between race wins for Kings Full, but this looks like a lovely race for him.
He has been racing well without winning in tougher company than this and this represents a genuine drop in class.
Barrier six is ideal and Will Price will give him every possible chance in the run.
Mornington – Race 6 3:45pm AEST – No. 4 Degraves
Degraves has recorded two wins from his past three race starts and he is deserving of his status as a clear favourite in the Ansett Classic.
There was a lot to like about the way that he put away his rivals at The Valley last start and this race is no tougher.
Jye McNeil can settle him just behind the speed from barrier three and there will be no excuses if he doesn’t get the job done.
Mornington – Race 7 4:20pm AEST – No. 9 Salton Sea
Salton Sea is well-placed to return to winning form third-up.
He has finished second in his two race to date this campaign and he strikes a very winnable contest here.
Barrier 13 isn’t ideal and he will need some luck in running, but Damian Lane in the saddle is a big positive.
Mornington – Race 8 4:55pm AEST – No. 9 Cambourne
Cambourne has raced well at Group 1 level in the past and he has an excellent chance to return to winning form.
He started his campaign with a second place finish behind Sirileo Miss at Ladbrokes Park Sandown and this race is no tougher.
John Allen will be able to settle him a couple of pairs back and he is deserving of his status as favourite.
