Saturday Racing returns to HQ where Flemington is set to host an intriguing 9 race program. There are a few shorties throughout the day and I’m sure the punters will be hoping a majority of them salute however, I’m having a nibble at a few value prospects!

The track is currently rated a Soft 5. Victorians are set to expect a wet day with a top of 14 degrees! There’s 1-2mm forecasted to drop and if we receive anything more expect a track downgrade.

The rail is out 3m for this meeting. Statistically speaking the 3m rail position at Flemington is quite fair and I’m expecting a majority of these races to be pace dependent.
