Feature racing in Melbourne this Saturday is at HQ and Adam Curkpatrick from The Race Club is all over a fit filly who will relish the extra trip around the Flemington track.

Race 6, 1400m
Grey River ($3.40, $1.60)
I was quite keen on Grey River ($3.40, $1.60) to win the Proud Miss, beaten by Snapped after making an early move midway through the race.
Snapped recorded the biggest closing figure of the meet from a rearward position.
Grey River ($3.40, $1.60) is only suited further now to 1400m, peak fitness and a soft map to boot.
She is clearly the horse they all have to beat here.
Tip: Win
A nice ride by Jason Holder helps Grey River score an impressive first-up victory 👌@OConnorRacing1 @Gawlerjockey @RacingSA pic.twitter.com/7pY56ccuJz

Value BetÂ
Race 3, 1400m
Ballynora ($18.00, $5.00)
SP profilers will feel sick at the suggestion of following Ballynora ($18.00, $5.00) in, however she never should have been triple figures in the City Of Adelaide off a complete forgive run FUP at 1200m.
She maps well and finishing 2.2L 6th, side by side a seasoned runner in Morvada who has since run well in a BM100 this C&D, is a good lead in for this.
Big odds and she is the value play today.Â
