Racing and Sports highlight our standout plays at metropolitan TAB meetings for May 2.
Morphettville: Race 9 @ 5.15pm (AEST)
BEHEMOTH (5) resumes and goes well like that. His two Sydney runs were excellent. Will have been set for these races and a trial will have him ready to go. Looks a strong winning chance. HOME OF THE BRAVE (2) loves some sting out of the ground. He'll be up there for some time. VIRIDINE (3) fought on well enough in the Irwin. Obviously if we get substantial rain then JUNGLE EDGE (4) comes right into it. SELECTION: With some weight relief #5 Behemoth will storm home.

Sandown: Race 1 @ 11.55am
WEGOBAM (6) will improve this time. 1000m all unfolded too quickly for her on debut but closed off well and bred to swim. With natural improvement can win. ROSE OF SEBRING (3) walked in last time. Far too good at Ballarat and while this is clearly a much tougher test of her talents she appears up to it and should get a lovely run up in the first couple. DIALA (1) and WYLD SAVANNA (7) come back in trip after coming up short last week in the Anzac Day Stakes. Wyld Savanna is a work in progress but there is talent there and we are yet to see all that she has to offer. Makes some betting appeal. SELECTION: #6 Wegobam to win off a good debut.
Randwick-Kensington: Race 4 @ 1.25pm
FITUESE (5) wasn't beaten far in the Gosford Guineas prior to a break and appears very well set up to sprint well fresh. Her latest trial was very sharp and she rates highly on best form, Wide draw is some query, plenty of speed drawn to her inside, but with a bit of luck, she should take plenty of beating. L'COSMO (9) was well supported first up and just missed when hitting the line hard late. Can only improve off that and looms as a major threat. WITHERSPOON (1) also holds claims. SELECTION: Very keen on #5 Fituese in her return.
Ascot: Race 4 @ 2.51pm (AEST)
BABY BLUES (1) is hard to knock with four excellent efforts this time in. Scored back to back to back wins then found the line well when she got close last time. Back against own age and the rise in distance suits. TRADENSIA (5) was too good in an on pace win over 1400m second-up and the mile should pose no worry. Definite chance. IMPERIALISM (8) and DIVIDE THE SEA (3) are worth some thought too. SELECTION: #1 Baby Blues has each way appeal.
Doomben: Race 8 @ 3.37pm
RACECOURSE ROAD (4) is gunning for a hat trick and looks hard to beat. He has led when scoring in both of those outings, the latest by close to a length at this course and distance. Go close again. JARDIN ROUGE (8) is racing well and kept coming when beaten 1L into second last time. Expect her to be prominent again. ALL IMPORTANT (1) found winning form when he led and kicked away to score comfortably last start. Should be at his peak third up so is a chance while BEAT THE BEAST (2) was racing well last campaign. Include fresh. SELECTION: #4 Racecourse Road to score again.
