Shortest win price
Miss Toronado (7)
2.25
Mornington hosts this Benchmark 56 sprint at 4:00 pm AEDT across 1000 metres on a Good 4 track under overcast conditions. Miss Toronado is the shortest in the win market, ahead of Ilovediamonds and Bella Cinque. The form on those top contenders tells plenty. Miss Toronado broke through with a win over 1100 metres at St Arnaud from the deep gate at Good 3 going, ratings lifting sharply since. She maps on-pace from barrier 1 in an inside draw that suits her profile. Ilovediamonds has rattled off consecutive 1000-metre wins at this track on Good 4 and Good 3, both by small margins, and the comment notes gate speed that overcomes the outer barrier ten. That jockey-trainer combo with Sam Kennedy and Shawn Mathrick is firing 56 per cent above market expectations, while Kennedy's strike rate sits 18 per cent better than career average.
Bella Cinque shapes as a genuine alternative. She finished second here at 1000 metres on Good 3 going and ran sixth this distance and track on Good 4, the comment suggesting she can fill minors again. Nadia Daniels is a notable booking — the rider is 62 per cent above market expected in her last 100 rides and 48 per cent outperforming career average POT. However, Podargoni returns for his second campaign after 17 weeks out and rates a watch. The comment notes he looked forward in jump-outs, Luke Nolen is a senior rider, and punters should keep tabs on market moves.
Triple Salute and Just Remember It complete the shorter-priced quartet. Triple Salute is a leader with Brad Rawiller aboard and a 17 per cent strike-rate boost on career average, though the stable is underperforming market by 23 per cent. Just Remember It sits as a backmarker from barrier 3 with Craig Newitt, but the pairing are crushing expectations by 118 per cent — that's the kind of combo metric that jumps off the page. The early group features three leaders in Ilovediamonds, Triple Salute, and Nuggies, which should set a workable tempo for on-pace and midfield runners to attack.

ILB
At $3.90 picked up some late ground when 5th last start at Bairnsdale. Possesses good closing speed. Can measure up against these.

Didn't run too badly when out of the frame at Bairnsdale (beaten just over 3l) four weeks ago on debut for this trainer; good and bad recent runs found on his CV; is passed over as this is a fairly competitive event.
RSIS
Started 3/1 and hit the line well when 5th last run at Bairnsdale. Will be motoring home late. Capable of winning this.

Back from a break. Couldn't stay in touch when 10th last start at Werribee but challenged by less formidable competitors. Liana Wood provides some weight relief.

Gave them all something to chase when winning by a margin of 2 1/4L last run at St Arnaud and will be aiming for a soft run from the draw. Expect support.
