R5 – 8.03pm – MIXX FM Pace – 1750m

5 – Hugo Rocks
9 – Twisted Bliss
2 – Cheerstolou
6 – Ozzie Battler

Hugo Rocks has some good form around nice horses of late, including a barnstorming second placing to Blake Bolac at Swan Hill two starts ago and a close-up fourth to the talented Roadmaster at Melton before that. He finds a suitable race here despite the tricky gate.

BACK: 5 Hugo Rocks – 3 units (win)

R6 – 8.33pm – 3SH Swan Hill Pacing Cup – 2790m

10 – Perfect Stride
13 – Like A Wildfire
5 – Tiger Bang Wagon
6 – Kosimo

Think there’s a host of winning chances here despite Like A Wildfire being short in the market and love the recent form of Perfect Stride, who looks a nice play on the each-way in one of the night’s features.

BACK: 10 Perfect Stride – 1.5 units (each-way)

R7 – 9.03pm – King Of The North @ Llowalong Farms Swan Hill Trotters Cup – 2790m

6 – Parisian Artiste
5 – Virginia Clowers
4 – Revelstoke
2 – Blue Coman

The scratching of Callmethebreeze leaves me very keen on the chances of Parisian Artiste, who has been running some cracking races of late in elite company. This looks an easier assignment and I think tonight’s his night.

BACK: 6 Parisian Artiste – 4 units (win)
