Mornington Racing Club will host a nine-race card on Sunday afternoon, where the first event will kick off at 1pm AEDT. With perfect weather forecast across the weekend in Mornington, the track is expected to remain in the Good range after being rated as a Good 4 at the time of acceptances. The rail will be in its true position for the entire circuit.
Best Bet at Mornington: Placentia Bay
Placentia Bay has raced over 1600m in all three of his career starts, with his last start fifth at Cranbourne being the worst of his results to date. The Ciaron Maher-trained gelding was made to travel three-wide without cover on that occasion, but even with the torrid run in transit, he still battled on gamely to just miss the top four. Ben Allen has retained the ride for this contest, and from barrier two, he will be able to find the rail and lead on Placentia Bay before kicking clear on the home turn.
Best Bet
Race 7 – 
#6 Placentia Bay (2)
4yo Gelding | T: Ciaron Maher | J: Ben Allen (59kg)

Next Best at Mornington: I Am Piki
Anthony & Sam Freedman sent I Am Piki to Echuca to debut over 1000m, where the three-year-old filly found the trip too short and finished a strong second behind De Luca. The daughter of I Am Immortal settled midfield and tracked into the race nicely on the home turn before letting down with a good turn of foot to run through the line strongly. Rising to 1200m and striking a Good track second-up will be positives for this girl, and if Ethan Brown can find a back to follow from the 400m mark, I Am Piki should have no trouble breaking her maiden.
Next Best
Race 3 – 
#6 I Am Piki (7)
3yo Filly | T: Anthony & Sam Freedman | J: Ethan Brown (57kg)

Best Value at Mornington: Tsarina Diamonds
Tsarina Diamonds was able to put an underwhelming debut run behind her to run a strong race on speed at Warrnambool over 1400m second-up. The Shane Nichols-trained used her good barrier speed to push forward, settle outside the leader, and take over in the final 200m before being nosed out on the line to finish second. If Zac Spain can find the lead and pinch a cheap sectional down the side of the track, Tsarina Diamonds can spring a surprise at double figures odds with horse racing bookmakers.
Best Value
Race 4 – 
#14 Tsarina Diamonds (14)
3yo Filly | T: Shane Nichols | J: Zac Spain (56kg)
