The Blue Diamond winner is on top in the Tips and Race Preview for the 2020 HDF McNeil Stakes at Caulfield on Saturday.

Tagaloa winning the Strath Haven Preston Plate Picture: Racing and Sports

But there is good value around Ranting at $9.50 in the 2020 HDF McNeil Stakes (1200m) at Caulfield on Saturday.

2020 HDF MCNEIL STAKES – RACE ANALYSIS AND TIPS

Solid early tempo with Hard Landing, The Last Charge and Ranting among those to lead the way. TAGALOA (1) returns to the scene of his Blue Diamond win. He starred that day and backed it up with a terrific effort in the Todman. That's stand out form here and he has the blinkers on so can expect him to be nice and sharp for the return.

RANTING (11) was mowed down by OUR PLAYBOY (3) here in the G3 Vain Stakes and both come here fitter. Think Ranting can take a power of catching from a good spot on speed. Wary of the resuming IMMORTAL LOVE (10) who looked fantastic winning before a break, as did FLYING AWARD (7). Both look Guineas hopefuls at this stage.
