CREATOR OF THE WORLD is second up into a winnable race at Hawkesbury today.
The Time To Reign gelding raced well without recording an elusive victory during his debut preparation, while he returned to action to only just miss over 1200m at Kembla Grange a couple of weeks ago.
With natural improvement today, this represents a great opportunity for him to go one better.

In my opinion, this looms as a race in two between MASTER OF WAR and Pink Persuasion, and I am keen to be with the former given the difference in prices.
Master Of War has raced consistently this time in, missing the placings just once at his last five appearances and finding form around some decent types, without a lot of luck in the run.
In peak order today, I don’t think he’ll get a better opportunity to win.

| Recent form sound. At the latest run set the pace for much of the race 2nd of 7 at this track Mdn-Sw on June 4 over 1800m, on a slow track; 1.2 len behind Donatello with 59kg at $21. The race before that ran on from midfield; 3rd of 12 at Nowra Mdn-Sw on May 24 over 1600m, on rain affected going; head behind Will The Thinker carrying 59kg at $4.20. Working up to a win. Top chance who can go one better here. | |||
SEVEN DAYS returns to action in a winnable race at Hawkesbury.
The Farnan filly hasn’t been seen at the races since December, but she was an impressive winner here at this point of her last prep and wasn’t out of her depth in a stronger Saturday race before spelling.
She’s had the benefit of a few trials ahead of today’s return and this looks to be an ideal campaign launchpad.
| 6. Seven Days (2) J: Tyler Schiller 56.5kg 7x14xT: Brad Widdup | |||
| Has won previously first-up and resumes here after a break of six months. Finished off last campaign fourth of 8 at Gosford Prov Cl1 December 31 over 1100m, 1.75 len behind Brightburn with 55kg at $6.50. Previous preparation first-up won by 1.75 len this track Mid Mdn-Sw December 14 over 1000m slow track defeating Mrs Flanders carrying 55.5kg at $3.50. Smart filly who can get the better of these first-up. | |||
I thought that this looked a nice race for UNREAL EXPECTATION.
Unreal Expectation doesn’t win out of turn, but he also rarely turns in a poor performance, and he was only just denied in races at Newcastle and Gosford and his two latest starts.
In peak order today, he rates as a genuine contender again at each way odds ($8 at publish).
| 6. Unreal Expectation (7) J: Chad Lever 57.5kg 34622T: Tara & Philippe Vigouroux | |||
| At the latest run raced on the pace when 2nd of 7 at Gosford Cg&E Bm64 on June 18 over 1600m, in the wet; head behind Menthon carrying 57kg at $2.70. The run before that 2nd of 11 at Newcastle Prov Bm68 on June 6 over 1600m, slow going 1.3 len behind Piccaderro with 55kg at $3.90. Holding form and stays in the mix. | |||
