The day of racing is set to get underway at 1:30pm AEST.
Best Bet at Swan Hill – Sixbysixtythree
Coming off a narrow defeat The Valley and Flemington in recent times, the Patrick Payne-trained Sixbysixtythree looks perfectly placed when he steps out in the penultimate race of the day. The five-year-old gelding gains the services of Harry Coffey and despite needing to lug 60kg on his back, this bloke may just have bit too much class for this field. From barrier 10, look for Coffey to try and settle this bloke in the first half a dozen with cover and if they are afforded such luxury, it will take him a long way into a race like this. He has four wins from five starts when starting as favourite and three wins from five starts on firmer decks which suggests he should prove too good. The $2.70 on offer with some online betting sites looks to be a perfect bank builder ahead of a Group 1 weekend of racing.

Next Best at Swan Hill – Mira Flores
Formidable trainer/jockey combo of Patrick Payne & Dean Yendall will be looking to bring up an overdue maiden victory with Mira Flores. The four-year-old mare has finished second at her first two career starts when chasing home the smart El Rocko at Ballarat and then the impressive Only Need Time. This looks to be a touch easier on Friday and the fact she stays at the 1200m suggests this might just be a race perfectly set up for her. She draws to gain the perfect run in transit from barrier three in either the one-one of three pairs back in the moving line. Mira Flores is armed enough with a strong enough turn of foot to be taking out a race like this and it might just be the confidence builder she requires to go on with the job from this point forward.

Best Value at Swan Hill – Winsome Voyage
In the opening leg of the quaddie, the Declan Maher-trained Winsome Voyage looks to present great value. The six-year-old gelding could not go with the leaders in his last start at Sandown where every favour went the eventual quinella’s way, but the run suggested he would be hard to beat wherever he went next. He returns to Swan Hill, a track he has a strong affiliation with having won both of his starts at the track, including one at the 1600m which he faces on Friday. With speed drawn on either side, he draws to gain a perfect cart across the front of the field and as long as he does not get trapped wide throughout, the $13 with online bookmakers looks overs for a runner like Winsome Voyage based on his recent form.
