Geelong - Race 4 2:55pm
No. 1 Avenues
Avenues has improved with each of four starts since debuting and gets a great chance to win at Geelong this afternoon.
The Reset gelding finished midfield after racing greenly on debut at Ballarat in July but has since finished off well to fill the minors at three subsequent appearances, only just missing at his last two.
He’s in peak order today and might not get a better opportunity to win.
Geelong - Race 5 3:30pm
No. 4 Epice Dieu
Epice Dieu is a galloper in form, and he rates as a key winning chance again this afternoon at Geelong.
Epice Dieu has won three of his last four starts, working home nicely to strike in BM64 company last time out.
He’s another that is a model of fitness today and this looks the next logical target for him.
Geelong - Race 7 4:50pm
No. 3 Muktamil
Muktamil takes winning form into this contest and looks capable of making it two in a row.
The Sea The Stars gelding has finished worse than second once at his last five trips to the races and was rewarded with a dominant win in maiden company last time.
This is harder, but he’s racing with confidence and will relish the staying trip.
Geelong - Race 8 5:30pm
No. 11 Hartman
Hartman is third-up and ready to do something at nice odds this afternoon ($7 at publish).
Hartman finished midfield in BM64 company at Sandown when resuming last month and finished off well, though well beaten by the promising Federer at his latest.
Fitter third-up, something like this looks well within his abilities.
