Flemington.

Unhinged remains the leading current comparison. Cab Franc’s withdrawal modestly reduces forward congestion, helping High Falls, Conquer The World, Fast Freddie and Tuzemak; other forward routes remain. Glenorchy and The Roaring Sun still need to settle. R1 remains a betting PASS rather than a forced replacement. At the refreshed odds the leading cases remain short; Glenorchy (14%, $9) is a credible alternative opinion, not an active bet. PASS is not a claim that no runner could offer value.

Field scenario: Nine remaining acceptors; Mister Whiskers, Star Of Macedon and Cab Franc scratched. No emergencies.

Full-field assessment retained from adopted Thursday review.

Field scenario: Current main acceptors only; every included runner assumed to take this engagement. Emergencies excluded as unadmitted, not assigned zero ability.

Anglais has withdrawn. The leading achieved class/task cases remain Icelady 17.5%, Your Colour 17%, De Armas 13.5%, Tharwa 13%, Voynichese 9% and Autumn In Grinzing 9%. Removing a midfield/advancing rival does not establish a slower pace or an automatic clear run. The strongest staying/class cases retain priority over developmental maiden routes. PASS remains: no new main endorsement, not a claim that every runner is poor value at every price.

Field scenario: Finalised starter field less confirmed late withdrawal; no eliminated emergency reinstated.

King Zephyr’s withdrawal removes a late-running rival, not a principal pace source. Ndola retains the strongest replicated straight-1200m case, with a current win at 61.5kg and 58kg here. Straight-group formation and access remain uncertain; original gate 19 is not a lane-bias guarantee.

Repeated straight 1200m achievement and latest win under 61.5kg, now 58kg; access and lane formation remain uncertain.

Field scenario: Nineteen remaining runners; King Zephyr scratched from R4. No emergency additions.

War Machine’s withdrawal removes a strong current 1400m rival. King Zephyr’s repeated 1300–1400m ability and restricted fresh sprint make this assignment credible at 53kg, but the direct current Moonga/Weekend Hussler quartet remains stronger. Forward options remain; no easy-lead or automatic traffic bonus. Private Eye is Rated, Amenable the main WIN recommendation, Hughes the optional alternative.

Close current Moonga fourth, now 53kg: 4kg better relative to remaining rival Private Eye. War Machine has withdrawn. Amenable retains a credible winning case, with starting and access risks already considered.

Paddy’s Pick · optional alternative: Hughes. Close current Moonga third, now 54.5kg and 4kg better relative to remaining rival Private Eye. War Machine is scratched. Optional alternative to Amenable, not an extra main bet. Not an extra main recommendation.

Field scenario: Current 16-runner field includes Scheelite and King Zephyr. Pericles, War Machine and Estremo scratched.

Doubt Time has withdrawn. Satono Glow 18% and St Gotthard 15% retain the strongest achieved 1200m/class cases, followed by The Next Episode 13.5% and Natural Fling 9.5%. Removing a slow-mustering closer does not remove the principal pace: Paradoxium, Natural Fling and Pembrey retain forward possibilities. No automatic leader upgrade or free closing passage is assumed. PASS remains: no new main endorsement, not a claim that every runner is poor value at every price.

Field scenario: Finalised starter field less confirmed late withdrawal; no eliminated emergency reinstated.

Full-field assessment retained from adopted Thursday review.

Field scenario: Current 16-runner field includes Meet The Prince. Hierarchy scratched; Locked In eliminated.

Full-field assessment retained from adopted Thursday review.

Field scenario: Current main acceptors only; every included runner assumed to take this engagement. Emergencies excluded as unadmitted, not assigned zero ability.

Flying For Fun retains the strongest direct 1100m and course comparison. Generosity was not a principal recent pace source; several forward runners remain. The current sprint performers receive modestly stronger chances, without assuming easier leads or guaranteed clear runs. No main bet.

Field scenario: Sixteen remaining acceptors; Generosity and Tres Magnifique scratched. No emergencies.
