NSW racing heads to Kembla Grange on Thursday afternoon, with the Illawarra track playing host to a bumper eight-part program featuring 122 acceptors. Although the track was rated a Heavy 8 at the time of acceptances, this week’s forecast suggests a possible upgrade into the Soft range. The rail will be out +6m the whole way around, and the opening event is set to get underway at 1pm local time.
Best Bet at Kembla Grange: Copacabana
Copacabana was edged out by Cristal Clear at Hawkesbury on September 12 but appears perfectly placed to turn the tables. The son of Toronado was unsuited by a slow tempo in a small field, only warming into his work as they passed the post. He gets a 2kg swing in the weights this time around, and with a genuine tempo expected in this 1600m contest, Copacabana should be much stronger as he searches for his second career victory.
Best Bet
Race 2 – 
#1 Copacabana (5)

Next Best at Kembla Grange: Idolised
Idolised got a pass mark on debut at this course and distance on September 14. The daughter of Zoustar couldn’t sustain her run in the final furlong but did a good job to cling onto the minor money under Alysha Collett. She will be looking to adopt similar tactics in this 1200m contest, and provided she can get a softer time up on speed, watch for Idolised to boot clear late.
Next Best
Race 5 – 
#7 Idolised (3)
3yo Filly | T: Annabel Neasham & Rob Archibald | J: Alysha Collett (56.5kg)

Best Value at Rosehill: Fiftyfivechevy
After an impressive performance at Muswellbrook on September 10, Fiftyfivechevy is searching for back-to-back wins. The progressive three-year-old by Puissance De Lune appreciated every inch of the 1500m second-up and should relish getting out to the 2000m third-up. While this is his toughest task to date, Fiftyfivechevy draws well in gate five and looks set to jump at a solid each-way price with top horse racing bookmakers.
Best Value
Race 3 – 
#9 Fiftyfivechevy (5)
3yo Gelding | T: Annabel Neasham & Rob Archibald | J: Heavelon Van Der Hoven (55kg)
