Top Tip (Best Bet): Harry Got Styles

Second-place finish last time out suggests this runner is in peak form. Last start performance, Harry Got Styles came 2nd over 1000m at Flemington. Knows how to navigate soft going, but might need things to go its way. Competitive on soft tracks, placing in 50% of 4 starts, with 2 wins.

exacta

Biggest Threat (Danger): Stoli Bolli

Last race didn’t yield a top-four placing, but the run hinted at better to come. Could surprise them.

tip-strategy

Value Play: Dreamzel

Last race saw a brilliant performance, ending in victory. Dreamzel raced recently, placing 1st in a 1000m event at Sandown-Hillside. Dreamzel has been competitive here, and with a solid record, another top run isn’t out of the question. Good enough in soft conditions, but faces some tough competition on Saturday.

Top Tip (Best Bet): Farhh Flung

Last race saw a fighting second-place finish, looking to go one better. Last start, Farhh Flung finished in the placings over 1620m at Flemington on 02/08/2025. Competitive at this track, placing in 2 of 6 starts, with 2 wins.

exacta

Biggest Threat (Danger): Farnborough

With three consecutive placings, Farnborough has shown its ability to stay competitive. Farnborough stepped out at Sandown-Hillside on 23/07/2025, finishing 3rd over 1600m.

tip-strategy

Value Play: Reset The Jazz

Showed class and determination to win last race. Reset The Jazz competed at Sandown-Hillside over 1600m, finishing 1st. On soft tracks, not its best or worst surface, but capable on the day.

quinella

Top Tip (Best Bet): Naval Academy

Couldn’t break into the top four last start but ran better than the result suggests. Naval Academy ran at Caulfield on 26/07/2025, finishing 6th in a 1100m event. Has won at this trip before, can do it again I think. Distance stats: 2-0-0, with a win rate of 50% and a place rate of 50%.

exacta

Biggest Threat (Danger): Great Maximus

Last race saw a strong third-place performance, staying competitive throughout. Last outing, Great Maximus took on a 1200m race at Flemington and finished 3rd.

tip-strategy

Value Play: Elouyou

Has performed respectably on soft tracks before, and another good run wouldn’t shock. Handles soft ground well, boasting 2 wins from 4 runs. Has never lost at Moonee Valley, a major plus. Performed well here, winning 2 times from 2 starts.

Jockey Watch: Blake Shinn

Shinny heads to the Valley with a loaded slate ahead of him. Watch out for Oak Hill in Race 4, his top favourite of the meeting.
