We’ve locked in our top pick for every race at Saturday’s Trentham meeting, which features the final two Group 1s to be contested this season. Trentham Race 1 4 Romilly Romilly (#4) hasn’t quite delivered at her last two starts, but her dominant R75 win over 1400m on New Year’s Day is hard to overlook. The wet track suits and the key jockey stick. Both positive signs she can bounce back in the opener.  Trentham R1 – HAPPY HIRE SPRINT Final Race time:  2nd 4. Romilly (5) J: Michael McNab 57.5kg 61756T: Graham Richardson & Rogan Norvall 5.00WIN 1.85PLACE For current odds…

We’ve locked in our top pick for every race on Champions Day at Ellerslie. Ellerslie Race 1 4 Steely Man Each Way 4 Steely Man stuck on gamely for a placing last start and looks well suited stepping back to 1600m, his preferred trip. His return to Ellerslie, the scene of both of his career wins, is another tick, and the wide draw isn’t a concern given he typically settles in the back half of the field. Expect him to be attacking the line strongly late. Ellerslie R1 – ELSDON PARK PLATE Final Race time:  11th 4. Steely Man (8) J: Tayla Mitchell 58.5kg…

5 Confesara has made a strong start to her career, recording back-to-back second placings and is still searching for her maiden win. I think she can break through here over the 1200m. In her most recent run, she finished strongly to go down by just 0.8 of a length to Avantaggia. She has drawn a favourable barrier in gate 2 and should be able to take up the lead and control the race from the front. Boost your odds for bigger payouts with Odds Boost.
