Hamilton Race 1 - Taylor Toyota Mdn Plate
Plenty of value to be had at Hamilton, including their Cup worth 65K over 2200m. PRESTIGE HELLBENT (5) improved sharply second up when finishing runner-up at Bairnsdale by a short-head nearly 3 weeks ago. He has the draw advantage over the top pick, and should go close to getting the job done here. Each way. HANK HONK (1) was a beaten favourite on debut after missing the kick at the end of last season. He has won another jump-out leading into his return here, and is good enough to set the record straight by taking this out. Follow your money. RUN FORREST RUN (7) is a locally trained gelding making his debut from the coveted pole position with the aide of a 3kg claim. Follow any market confidence. QUEEN OF THE TOP (17) resumes from a spell and was a recent jump-out winner. She has the scope to be competitive in this. Keep safe in all combos.

Gelding by Hanseatic facing the starter for the first time. Ran 3rd in a jump-out at Coleraine on September 28. Makes debut on home course and importantly has a nice gate so may well pay to keep safe.
