The rail goes back into the true position for the entire circuit, while the opening race of the day is scheduled to jump at 12:28pm AWST.
Magic Millions WA 3YO Trophy Tip: Bondi Bubbles
Bondi Bubbles has won six on the bounce exclusively at Esperance this preparation, and he will take on the toughest test of his career this weekend. The David Harrison-trained gelding enters this race as one of two last-start winners in the 16-horse field. Last time out, this son of Bondi was made to travel three wide for the entire 1100m trip but was still strong enough late to run over the top of the leader and win by 1.3 lengths. Paul Harvey will take over from apprentice Zepher Johnston-Porter, and if Bondi Bubbles can settle off the fence in the first five or six, he will play a prominent role in the finish.

Magic Millions WA 2YO Classic Tip: Onemoretwomany
Onemoretwomany will seek to keep his unbeaten record intact when he kicks off his second preparation this weekend. In both of his career starts, the two-year-old gelding has led from start to finish to win in impressive fashion at Ascot over 1100m. This son of Tassort cruised to victory in a recent 1000m trial, so he appears to have come back in similar form to how he left off. With only two other speed influences in this race, Laqdar Ramoly will push forward and settle outside the leader. If he doesn’t get caught wide or do too much work early, Onemoretwomany can complete the hat-trick.

Best Bet at Pinjarra: Premium Girl
Premium Girl suffered her first defeat in three races last time out, going down to Memory Parade in a photo finish. The Tony Triscari-trained galloper showed her customary turn of foot in the concluding stages, but she laid in during the straight and lost valuable momentum. This contest appears to have a lot of speed, which should suit this daughter of A Lot given she enjoys settling worse than midfield and running on. With even luck and a strong tempo, Premium Girl will be flying home down the outside late.

Race 9 – #16 Premium Girl (14)

Next Best Bet at Pinjarra: Shaka Zulu
Last start, Shaka Zulu jumped slowly and had to settle in the back half of the field for the first time in his career. The Rob Gulberti-trained gelding picked his way through the pack in the home straight and was the best of the swoopers late but couldn’t pick up the runaway leader. If this son of Rommel can jump better and settle closer over 1200m, he will have a positional advantage and a healthy margin over his main rival in the betting, who will settle at the tail of the field. Clint Johnston-Porter will be able to build momentum on the home turn and allow Shaka Zulu to go through his gears as he looks to go one better than last start.

Best Value at Pinjarra: Nurhaci
Nurhachi has been building up to a win this preparation and appears to have found the right race to return to the winner’s circle. The Peter Fernie-trained gelding was a little unlucky last start when he lost ground and had to make a long, searching run from the back of the field. There is a lot of speed drawn inside of this son of Nicconi, which should allow Lucy Fiore to settle in behind the first four or five and find a nice run in transit off the fence. With the advantage of a strong race tempo, Nurhaci will be one of the strongest late and can finish right over the top of the tiring leaders.
Best Value
Race 5 – #2 Nurhaci (9)
7yo Gelding | T: Peter Fernie | J: Lucy Fiore (57.5kg)
