The G1 Epson and Metropolitan Handicaps headline a massive day of racing at Randwick. Our analyst is with an emerging star filly and a proven G1 stayer as the value play.
View our best selection and value play below.
Best Selection: R6- Apocalyptic
Apocalyptic looks like an emerging star and very hard to beat in this after impressive 0.2L and 1.8L wins in the G2 Furious and G2 Tea Rose this prep. She was wide no cover last start but still managed to produce a powerful finish against a very similar field that seems to leave her well placed stepping up to a mile.
Value Selection: R9- Arapaho
Arapaho is proven at G1 staying level. He looks great value in the market seemingly due to the big weight he will give away at Handicap conditions. He looked to have been travelling as well as ever early in his prep with 1.8L 3rd in the G1 Winx and 4L 6th in the Chelmsford against elite WFA company over unfavourable trips. I am willing to overlook his latest 4.4L 4th in the G3 Kingston Town as I do believe the Baker team will have him wound up for this race. He will roll forward and should be in the finish.
