Moonee Valley - Race 1 - Western General Bodyworks Handicap - 2500m

Selections:
2. Mi Rock Aly - $2.50
3. Genrichero - $3.60
6. Blissfull Lady - $4.60

BEST BET - Mi Rock Aly - $2.50
The opener here at Moonee Valley promises to be a very good one and Mi Rock Aly is the one to catch on paper. Back to back second place finishes over this sort of distance are hugely encouraging and it should enjoy conditions at Moonee Valley.

THE DANGER - Genrichero - $3.60
Form has been very strong from Genrichero of late too and this is another good chance to bag a win, for this very impressive horse. The only potential question mark is the going, as it may not appreciate anything too sticky under foot.

VALUE BET - Blissfull Lady - $4.60
Despite no real form to speak of, Blissfull Lady should push on in this one and make a strong claim. It will have no issues with the trip and should be able to demonstrate sufficient stamina over 2500m.

Moonee Valley - Race 2 - Quest Maiden Plate - 1600m

Selections:
4. Rip 'N Rip - $1.60
11. Miss Alexis - $2.90
10. Izola - $12.00

BEST BET - Rip 'N Rip - $1.60
Blake Shinn has been handled the saddle here on Rip 'N Rip, who looks set to finally break its maiden. Obviously, it will need to go out and do the business but on paper this one shouldn't be touched.

THE DANGER - Miss Alexis - $2.90
Arguably the only horse that could actually contend here is Miss Alexis and the scene looks set for it to challenge. It looked in decent shape when finishing 4th at Pakenham on debut and Ciaron Maher will have it ready for this one.

VALUE BET - Izola - $12.00
Similarly, Chris Waller will have the inexperienced Izola fit and firing ahead of this challenge and it should have the credentials to run a good race, even if it's not enough to bag the win.

Moonee Valley - Race 7 - Evergreen Turf Series Heat 2 - 2040m

Selections:
4. Lygon Street Luigi - $2.90
2. Stepchild - $3.20
9. Early Warning - $12.00

BEST BET - Lygon Street Luigi - $2.90
Having come so close to winning over course and distance just a fortnight ago, plenty of confidence has been installed in Lygon Street Luigi here. Blake Shinn is in the hoop and if it gets a run, it could be tough to stop.

THE DANGER - Stepchild - $3.20
Paddy Payne thinks a lot of this horse and it needs to get back to winning ways for him sooner rather than later. Back to back placings suggest things are on the up and Stepchild could be in contention again here.

VALUE BET - Early Warning - $12.00
There is nothing that can replace the confidence that comes with winning races and Early Warning is a flyer in fantastic form. It is chasing a third win on the spin here and betting against it feels brave.
