Canterbury Park Racecourse is the destination for metro racing on Wednesday afternoon, with a competitive eight-race program awaiting punters. The rail returns to the true position, and with light showers forecast for race-day, expect the surface to be rated in the Soft range. The opening race is set to jump at 12:50pm local time.
Best Bet: Little Jeanie
After finishing runner-up in her first two outings for the Chris Waller barn, Little Jeanie appears set to peak third-up. She was the best of the beaten brigade at Warwick Farm on April 1, storming through the wire to finish within two lengths of Stand Aside. Stepping out to the 1550m should be ideal for the daughter of Savabeel, and with James McDonald likely to press into the one-one from stall three, Little Jeanie should get every chance to remove her maiden tag.

Next Best: Earth Dance
The 1400m proved too sharp for Earth Dance when making his Australian debut on the Kensington circuit at Randwick on March 13. He was eye-catching through the line, however, suggesting the Peter & Paul Snowden-trained Irish import could be worth following as he steps out to a staying trip. He appears perfectly placed in this BM72 contest, and with the 1900m journey a major positive, watch for this son of Australia to loom large in the concluding stages.

Best Value: Trafalgar Square
Trafalgar Square didn’t go a yard on the Heavy deck at Randwick in the Group 3 Kindergarten Stakes (1100m) on April 6. She attempted to circle the field with 400m to travel but was simply no match for the likes of Espionage and Roselyn’s Star. That form reads exceptionally well for this maiden against the girls, and as Chad Scofield looks to stalk the speed from barrier one, Trafalgar Square will be swamping her rivals when presented down the centre of the course.
Best Value
Race 2 – 
#2 Trafalgar Square (1)
2yo Filly | T: David Payne | J: Chad Schofield (58kg)
+550 with Neds
