Monday Mike's early backs and Lays. 29/03/14.

M/Valley.
R2.  Back.  Elite Elle.  ( Just as good over 1000 here as 1200, controls the race with not much pressure, 3 kgs weight advantage is enough to hold off Shamal Wind's explosive finish.)
R4.  Back.  E/W.  Miss Steele.  ( Big drop in class here, does find trouble in its races but, barrier 6 will suit this time, being a little wider will not get pocketed for a big uninterupted run.....fingers crossed @ 10/1.)
R2.  2nd fav. Elite Elle looks the best bet of the day.
Rosehill.
R1.  Lay.  fav.  Junoob.  ( Don't think it can run a good 1 1/2 miles.)
R6.  Throwing 3 in for the first leg of Quaddy.   Rain Affair ( Loves the tempo in slow going), Whittington, Kencella. ( conditions a gamble but no weight and speedsters for value.)
R7.  Back.  E/W.  Terravista.   (  Improver.........Who knows by R7. barrier 12 may be an advantage.  worth a small bet for Monday at huge odds.)
R8.  Back.  Shamus Award.  ( Again racing against its own age and 2000 metres.  Been no respect for this Cox Plate winner.?)
Overall looks a tough day in the bog at Rosehill.
Doomben.
R7.  Back.  E/W.  The Sixties.  ( Heavy track at Doomben may help the old timers well travelled legs.  Can take a position and keep plodding.   Probably 60s available for The Sixties tommorrow.)
