Racing and Sports highlight our standout plays for Australian TAB meetings on August 16.

Racecourse : Geelong (Australia) Picture: Michael Dodge/Getty Images

Four TAB meetings are held across Australia on this Friday at Dubbo, Taree, Geelong & Ipswich.

Geelong: Race 5 @ 3:30pm

Royal Rue can lead from I Am Eloquent, Mutombo and Basil Brush. I AM ELOQUENT (8) won the Maiden comfortably at this track before finding it a bit tough at Caulfield. She peaks now and Meech can use the rail. She looks well-set up to win in this line-up. MIKEYS TURF (5) comes back to the grass and the slow tempo didn’t suit the latest. She peaks now and is a chance from the low gate. SKARBEK (10) has been racing well and is in the mix. ROYAL RUE (9) won the Maiden by a space from the speed and is the one they have to get past.SELECTIONS: Keen on #8 I Am Eloquent.

Taree: Race 1 @ 12:30pm

Good early speed with Loving Heart leading from Dynasty Di and Stanford Merthyr. MUMMENTUM (2) found the 1000m at Taree a bit sharp on debut but she closed well to be beaten under 2 lengths in an encouraging effort. Far better placed over today's trip and looks set to open her account. TRAJECTION (5) looks the danger first up from a four-month spell. Was beaten just a length over 1200m at Wyong on debut last prep. Trialled twice leading into this return so expect her to be in the finish. SPARKLING ROSE (7) placed for the first time in her seven-start career when she found the line strongly to get up for 2nd over 1000m at Taree recently. Slowly putting it together. SWINGER (8) showed ability last prep and can run a race first up. SELECTIONS: This looks ideal for #2 Mummentum - back her with confidence.

Ipswich: Race 4 @ 2:45pm

Speculative how they settle. AIR SPIRIT (1) had been well-trialled and missed the start on debut and recovered strongly to miss a lip. Gets a low gate today and he can win this holding that. CALL ME STIRLING (2) hit the line finding one better on debut. He gets the rail and can feature with the extra fitness. DEE DAY DIVA (6) has trialled well and wasn’t far away on debut after being bumped at the start. She can also make quick improvement. MISS CHUCKLE debuted okay and is in the mix. SELECTIONS: #1 Air Spirit should have these covered for Gollan.
