The Big Dance (1600m) headlines a massive 10-race program at Royal Randwick on Tuesday, serving up an outstanding appetizer before the Group 1 Melbourne Cup (3200m) at Flemington.
The track is currently rated as a Good 4 at the time of writing; however, there are some scattered showers predicted to hit the course prior to race-day, so we’ll be doing the form for a surface somewhere in the improving Soft range. The rail is out +2m the entire circuit for the meeting, with the first race set to get underway at 11:45am AEDT.

Best Bet: Dynamic Impact
Dynamic Impact has been flying for the Bjorn Baker barn and deserves a reward for his efforts on Tuesday afternoon. He’s found minor placings in his last two performances, with the latest at this course and distance a barnstorming effort behind Much Much Better on October 21. He flashed into a third-place finish and had he stalk his rivals closer to the speed, would’ve been right in the finish. Anna Roper knocks off 3kgs in this contest after the claim, and although some may argue Dynamic Impact needs to step up in trip, we’re happy to give him another chance at the 1200m.

Race 10 – 
#6 Dynamic Impact (2)
6yo Gelding | T: Bjorn Baker | J: Anna Roper (a3) (59.5kg)

Next Best: Bandi’s Boy
The Barn Dance (1300m) is for country-trained gallopers worth $250,000, and we’re keen to be with Bandi’s Boy. The Danny Williams camp clearly has a big opinion of their lightly raced four-year-old, electing to scratch from a Highway Handicap on Saturday for this event. He won impressively in Highway company on October 28, seemingly return to his peak after a 413-day spell. If he holds that form on the short back-up, Bandi’s Boy is going to take a power of beating with 52kgs on his back.
Next Best
Race 6 – 
#15 Bandi’s Boy (6)
4yo Gelding | T: Danny Williams | J: Jay Ford (52kg)
+550 with Neds
Best Value: Excellent Proposal
Excellent Proposal is worth a throw at the stumps at a massive each-way price as he makes his Australian debut for the Michael Freedman yard. He was formerly with John Size in Hong Kong boasting a Group 1 win on the resume, but simply hasn’t been able to recapture his elite form behind the likes of Golden Sixty and California Spangle. It’s been 290 days since the now seven-year-old has raced, but his barrier trials have been promising, and with the son of Exceed And Excel holding nominations for the Group 1 Railway Stakes (1600m) and Group 1 Northerly Stakes (1800m) he can only run well here.
Best Value
Race 8 – 
#1 Excellent Proposal (6)
7yo Gelding | T: Michael Freedman | J: Jason Collett (62.5kg)
+5000 with Betfair
