Looks and sounds like a nightmare race!

RACE 5
Grand Plus and Confucius Elite seem to run in every dirt race and they’re back again-but they’re not for me. Give me Donkey Callan’s ride Star Of Wei Bo.
SELECTIONS: 2-10-11-1
RACE 6
Moreira sticking with Golden Scalpel looks like a good tip where another type of tip can be given to Money Cafe in a tough last leg of the Triple Trio fraught with danger.
SELECTIONS: 9-11-6-12
RACE 7
Eroico all the way and another winner for the Size-Moreira Happy Meal combo.
SELECTIONS: 3-1-8-10
RACE 8
Oh, dear, another of those all-bother all-weather races where, win, lose or draw, I will include Rhumba King which grows another leg on this surface.
It won’t win, but, then again, it could though Sight Believer and Pablosky look the logical choices. But since when did logic and horse racing go hand-in-hand?
SELECTIONS: 1-4-6-12
RACE 9
Douglas Whyte on Big Four adds up as the winner with that new thorn in his side- no, not Zac Purton, but Umberto Rispoli on Happy Place stopping any happy ending.
SELECTIONS: 2-6-7-8
RACE 10
The win of Giant Treasure was as big as its name suggests and as huge as the net worth of owner Pan Sutong.
Some say the Richard Gibson-owned galloper wasn’t even fully fit whereas others say the big spending owner vastly overpaid for his latest purchase.
We doubt Pan Sutong cares having bought Lindsay Park, Sloane Estate in Napa Valley for US$40m, three other wineries, this time in Bordeaux, and is now splashing out mega bucks hell-bent on bringing polo and, er, lawn bowls to China. What’s a few extra $20 million on a horse?
Though promoted for that jaw-dropping win, Giant Treasure has been purchased for bigger things in mind and looks better than this class.
If there are any dangers, these would be John Moore’s Helene Happy Star that put in an awesome run over an unsuitable distance and when looking far from race fit. Moreira replaces Nash Rawiller as it tackles a far more suitable distance and should give Giant Treasure the most to do.
