G2 Ted Van Heemst S., $250,000, 2100m
Regal Power (Pierro) looks set to continue the good run for Grant and Alana Williams and Bob and Sandra Peters - the classy 6-year-old is odds-on as he tackles just six rivals in a race he won with ease two years ago.
Two of his G1 Kingston Town S. rivals again take him on with Neufbosc (Fr) (Mastercraftsman {Ire}) needing to make up a couple of lengths having finished sixth whilst Platoon (Playing God) was eighth.
Marocchino (Maschino) was disappointing last time out but had previously been gutsy taking out the Listed Tattersalls S. whilst by the same stallion is Cockney Crew who was third at Group 3 level two starts ago.
Listed Starstruck Classic, $125,000, 1600m
Dance Music (War Chant {USA}) was a soft winner of this race last year and is racing just as well if not better this time around, her last start G1 Kingston Town S. fifth being excellent form for this.
Solaia (Toronado {Ire}) disappointed last start but has been generally consistent in stakes company as has been the in-form Angelic Miss (NZ) (Savabeel) who has been great swamping her rivals winning two in a row at Listed level. Also looking to make it three in a row is Beret (Helmet) who has earned a crack at this tougher company.
Playing Marika (Playing God) can improve having had plenty of weight down in class last start whilst the cerise and white duo of Real Charism and Bright Diamond - both daughters of I Am Invincible (Invincible Spirit {Ire}) can feature.
