Shortest win price
In Situ (2)
1.85
Welcome to Geraldton for the Wcdc Blood, Sweat & Beers meeting on a fine afternoon with the track rated good4. Punters looking at the win market for this 1200m sprint will find In Situ holding down the shortest price, closely followed by Deep Discretion, Champeze, and Sparkle Corner rounding out the early fancies in the betting order. It is shaping up as a fascinating tactical affair over the short course.
The shorter-priced runners bring some decent yarns into the race. In Situ comes out of a cracking effort here over 1100m and 1200m, backed by a stable operating at a strong strike rate. Sparkle Corner returns fitter second-up after finding the 70+ grade a bit too tough last time, and drops back into easier opposition with Madi Derrick taking the reins. Meanwhile, Deep Discretion resumes after a twenty-six-week break, having shown plenty of competitiveness in similar company last preparation and looking ready to play a role fresh.
Looking further down the form lines and speed maps, the early tempo should see Kentucky Blue pushing forward as the lone leader, while In Situ and Sparkle Corner will park right on the pace. Champeze comes off a determined win at this course where it flashed the fastest finishing sectionals, though it carries more weight this time around. Punters hunting for a bit of value have plenty to weigh up as the field prepares to line up for the 7:50 pm AEDT jump.

Failed to threaten this venue for new trainer. Hard to warm to.

At $10.00 ran 7th last start around here. Capable of bouncing back. Shows very good closing speed. The large claim from Tara Atherden helps. Solid chance.
RP
Was seventh of 11, beaten 8l, here over 5½f (handicap) two weeks ago on debut for this trainer; this is her level; should figure as finished third in April.
RSIS
Started 9/1 and ran 7th last start here. Can show a better performance this time. Shows very good closing pace. Large claim helps. Very capable of taking this out.

Right up there last time at the track and will find this grade easier. Been in the money 2 from 2 attempts lately. One of the punters top hopes at a very generous price.

Odds of $5.50 and looked outclassed when 6th last time around here but will appreciate the drop in grade. Should jump out and bowl along. Rises in weight. Betting is the best guide.

Last of six three weeks ago; knows this place inside out (five course wins); finished second at Geraldton three starts ago and too soon to write him off; has prospects.

Started 9/2 and weakened under pressure when 6th last time at this track but taking on easier opposition. Shows good early pace. Rises in weight. Respect the betting.

Mostly consistent recently and four wins from 15 here; a narrow runner-up at 11-10 here over 7f (handicap) six months ago; layoff to overcome; is respected.
RSIS
Fresh after a break of 26 weeks. Ran on when 2nd beaten by 3/4L last start here and gets a favourable stall. Can't leave out of your calculations.

Finished seventh, beaten 12l, in August at Carnarvon upped to 1m; first run for trainer; a few rivals look in good form so one to tread carefully with.

Fair performance without threatening this track at $9.50. Locally trained but has an adverse draw. Shapes as a rough place prospect.

RP
Finished in front of Becalotti and Clever Combat over 5½f here (handicap) when not disgraced last month; multiple course winner but hasn't really fired since his success in a handicap at Geraldton in February; unlikely to achieve more than just a supporting role as this could be a hot race.
RSIS
At 17/2 came in 4th last time at this track.
