Nine TAB meetings are held across Australia on this Friday at Gosford, Orange, Benalla, Moonee Valley, Sunshine Coast, Townsville, Narrogin, Naracoorte & Alice Springs.
Orange: Race 5 @ 3:45pm
Rufio expected to lead. TIME OF GLORY (4) looked good resuming with a second at Kembla Grange on October 26. Settled back and was solid to the line. Will be fitter for the run and is yet to finish out of the money in three prior second up outings. SPEED CAMERA (5) accounted for two rivals when winning at Orange a fortnight ago. Will strip fitter for the run. RUFIO (6) will lead them around and give them something to chase in the straight. SELECTIONS: Straight out Time Of Glory.

Benalla: Race 6 @ 3:55pm
Toojay and Shaquiana to lock horns early. SHAQUIANA (5) returned from an 18-week spell with a game 2nd over 1000m at Cranbourne last start. Fought hard to find the lead that day only to be collared close to home. Strips fitter and better placed over the extra ground. TOOJAY (3) recorded a deserved maiden win last time out over this trip at Moe, leading all the way and never looking under serious threat. Progressive gelding who will give a great sight again from a favourable gate. GOLDEN ESPRIT (6) has been competitive at all three runs this prep without winning, all on heavy tracks over 1000m. Very fit and sure to be in the thick of things again. THAT'S TWO SLABS (1) has placed 2/3 when fresh so give him some though resuming from a 24-week spell. SELECTIONS: Keen on #5 Shaquiana to go one better today.
Gosford: Race 5 @ 4:00pm
Hemsted prominent with Continuation. CONTINUATION (1) has performed well in each of his three runs this prep, the latest coming at the midweeks over 1800m on the Kensington. Easier here, will be at his peak fourth up and should be prominent throughout. HEMSTED (6) has been racing consistently. Placed at Hawkesbury last start. Go forward racing style particularly beneficial around Gosford. TYRRHENIAN (5) was stepped up sharply in distance last start and thrived, breaking his maiden in a Wyong Class 1. BELLS 'N' BOWS (2) is very much a mare in form. Comes here chasing the picket fence after three straight wins in the country. SELECTIONS: Continuation ready to break through this prep. Back accordingly.
Moonee Valley: Race 1 @ 6:30pm
Have seen good speed from 6 and 9 and they should be prominent in a well-run race here. SAYL (4) arrives here ready to peak off a steadily building profile this time in. Beaten less than a length two back and closer again last time when edged out by one with a bit of talent. Formline looks solid. KUSARI (7) was good without luck on debut and built on that on testing ground at Pakenham last time. Can further improve at start three and onto firmer footing now. MISS POLANSKI (9) was keen and soft late in the blinkers at Cranbourne. They come off now and that can help. HIGH HOPES (2) and TINSZEL (11) are others to consider. SELECTIONS: Backing Sayl.
Sunshine Coast: Race 2 @ 7:45pm
Let's Go Bobby should be quick into stride. THE PINES (8) made it three from four with a dominant win here on resumption. Money really came for her late and she didn't let anybody down. Continues to conquer every challenge mounted by the Edmonds team. No reason she can't pass this CL4 with flying colours. LET'S GO BOBBY (9) is guaranteed to give a sight. Gripped on to score a minor upset here three weeks ago. Presents here at peak and will have plenty of admirers. KITTY DAMOUR (7) can improve into the placings second-up. 1200m form is far superior than her 1000m form. Can be running on. SELECTIONS: The Pines for the win.
