BEST BET 🏆 (WIN)  

Race 6 No. 5 CELESTIAL HARBOUR – ($2.30)

CELESTIAL HARBOUR should be hard to beat in Race 6. The Mick Price & Michael Kent Jnr-trained galloper was a strong Maiden winner when resuming at Bendigo before bumping into some big names when 4th behind the likes of Caste and Jennilala at Sandown. At her most recent start she headed to Sale and botched the start badly, landing five lengths off them. She worked home very well to finish 3rd, beaten just over a length. With a cleaner getaway this time around it is hard to see them knocking her over. 

NEXT BEST 🥈 (WIN) 

Race 5 No 6 IMPS – ($4.80)

Plenty of interest in this race with the son of Black Caviar, I Am Caviar, running around. But I am going with IMPS to chalk up her second career win. The three-year-old resumed at Sandown Hillside on May 10 and worked hard in front on the Heavy 9 track before just fading late in the piece to finish three lengths away. She will take improvement off that and was a winner at her only other career second up run.
