Top quality horses begin campaigns on this day with the G2 PB Lawrence Stakes (1400m) traditionally a race to watch.

Regulars in this company like last year’s winner Mr Brightside ($2.50) will be hard to beat but newcomers to this sort of grade such as Attrition ($6), Right You Are ($51) and Duke De Sessa ($11) will be followed.

Nominations were extended for the G3 Vain Stakes (1100m) for the 3yo C&G where a group of unbeaten youngsters take on some of best of the juvenile crop in Blue Diamond winner Little Brose ($3) and Golden Slipper runner up Cylinder ($2).

A bigger field looms for the G3 Quezette Stakes (1100m) with runners potentially coming from all over the place. Magic Millions winner Skirt The Law ($4.50) heads south for her resumption and could take on black type winner Princess Duhallow ($26) and another impressive filly Shesallshenanigans ($15).

Older sprinters go around in the Listed Regal Roller Stakes (1200m) where It’Sourtime has the recent winning form. But first uppers like Detonator Jack and Rocketing By are noteworthy.
