Top Tip (Best Bet): War Eternal

Second-place finish last time out suggests this runner is in peak form. Last time out, War Eternal competed over 1300m, placing 2nd at Rosehill. Not a standout at this trip (1400m) but has the ability to surprise. Solid record over this distance, winning 4 times from 8 runs.

Biggest Threat (Danger): Ang Pow

Ang Pow raced at Randwick last start, covering 1100m and finishing 6th. Should be fitter.

Value Play: Highlights

Finished outside the top four last start, showing potential for improvement. On 02/08/2025, Highlights lined up at Rosehill, finishing 5th over 1500m. Decent track record at Rosehill, with occasional flashes of form. he could well perform to expectations. At this venue, has a career record of 2-0-0, including 2 victories.

Best Bet - Race 8: Captain Furai

Win Odds: $5.00 | Place Odds: $2.00

Top Tip (Best Bet): Captain Furai

Wasn’t far off last start, finishing in second with a strong performance. Captain Furai ran at Rosehill on 02/08/2025, finishing 2nd in a 1400m event. When he rides here at Rosehill, it generally has a good time. That should be a plus for Saturday's race. This horse has decent stats on heavy ground, often putting in solid efforts when the going is tough. Has raced 4 times on heavy tracks, winning 50% and placing in 100%.

Biggest Threat (Danger): Puntin

He came home fourth last race, keeping in close company with the leaders. Puntin stepped out at Randwick on 26/07/2025, finishing 4th over 1800m. Never beaten over this trip 1400m - hard to look past it. Performed well over this trip, winning 2 times from 2 starts. This track is a favourite of Puntin, and with a perfect record, it’s hard to see anything stopping him. Winning is familiar to this horse, but not guaranteed.

Value Play: Hanau

Finished beyond the top four last start, but could be poised for a better effort. Last outing, Hanau took on a 1100m race at Rosehill and finished 7th. Still searching for that first win at Rosehill, but it’s certainly not out of the question.

Best Bet - Race 10: Bunker Hut

Win Odds: $5.50 | Place Odds: $2.10
Bookmaker: Bet Now with VicBet

Top Tip (Best Bet): Bunker Hut

Last race saw a determined fourth-place effort, showing promise for next time. Bunker Hut competed at Rosehill over 1200m, finishing 4th. Handles this track well, boasting 2 wins from 5 runs.

Biggest Threat (Danger): Disneck

Last race didn’t yield a top-four placing, but the run hinted at better to come. Disneck raced recently, placing 6th in a 1100m event at Rosehill. At this track, holds a record of 2-1-0, with 2 wins.

Value Play: Lord Penman

Showed great turn of foot to claim victory last race. Offers nice value if it gets another good run.

James McDonald has plenty of chances of wins on Saturday. Here are his 7 runners with a little comment about each one.
