Best Bet at Warrnambool: Circle The Sun
Circle The Sun has claimed victory by a combined 11.25 lengths at his last two jumps starts. The Eric Musgrove-trained hurdler ran his rivals ragged at the Warrnambool 3200m on May 4, before proving equally as dominant in The Australian Hurdle on May 21 at Sandown. He loves the slop and will be leading this field up. As long as he shows a clean pair of heels when jumping, Circle The Sun should be bring up a third win from as many starts over the obstacles.

Next Best at Warrnambool: Tolemac
Tolemac looks hard to beat in the Thackeray Steeplechase. The seven-year-old smacked his rivals in a BM120 during the Warrnambool May Racing Carnival and then went to Sandown and put 12 lengths on the field in The Australian Chase. Will Gordon will have him stalking the speed throughout, and when asked for an effort approaching the home turn, Tolemac should be putting away this field and stamping his authority.

Best Value at Warrnambool: Dashing Willoughby
Dashing Willoughby has had a rough time of it since arriving in Australia as a Melbourne Cup chance in 2020 and is now competing in his third-straight maiden hurdle. Two runs back he was 3.25 lengths off Sydney Cup placegetter True Marvel when second at Hamilton, before running into a smart jumper at the Warrnambool 3200m on June 18. He returns to the track and trip for this and will be forced to race up on speed from his wide barrier. The seven-year-old has race fitness on his side and jumps experience over odds-on favourite Le Baol, so there is some value about him.
