Pride Of Jenni will have a new jockey for Saturday's Group 1 Champions'Mile.

Rail moves out to the 4m position after being true for the previous meeting on November 3. Track was quite firm for Peninsula Cup day, so shouldn't be too much damage and any wear likely to be covered by the rail movement. Surface rated a Good 4 on Monday and 10mm of irrigation is being applied to ensure it doesn't become too firm on Tuesday.

Warm weather expected across Victoria on Saturday so the track should improve to be in the Good range for Dunkeld Cup Day. Plenty of irrigation has been put on the track with the surface rated a Soft 5 on Friday afternoon. Dunkeld is a once-a-year venue and the layout of the track suits horses who can settle close to the lead and near the inside fence.

First meeting at Cranbourne since October 11, so the surface should be in pristine condition. Rail out 3m for Cup Day and hot conditions are forecast, with temperatures expected to reach the mid 30s. Plenty of irrigation has gone on the track this week to ensure it doesn't get too firm, but fair to assume it will end up a Good 3 at some stage.

Kept closing well at Mount Gambier off a moderate tempo. Three kilo claim is a plus. Winnable race.

Rail stays in the True position, as it was for the previous meeting on November 10. Forecast suggests there could be 0-6mm of rain on Tuesday, but the temperature is expected to be warm. If the rain hits, it may result in riders edging off the fence and looking for better ground.

Racing returns to Werribee for the first time since June and while the course proper has been utilised by international runners during the Spring Carnival, the surface should be in pristine condition. Rail is in the true position for Cup Day and the weather forecast is quite mild with a top temperature of 20 degrees and cloud, but no rain expected. General layout of the Werribee track tends to suit on-speed horses.

Fine weather is forecast for Thursday's meeting, so we can expect to be racing on a Good surface. The track was still rated a Soft 5 as of Wednesday afternoon but should improve to be a Good 4 to start and may even end up as a Good 3 later in the program. The rail was out 4m for the previous meeting on November 18 and now moves back to the 1m position.

Racing on the Heath track for the third time in six days and the rail moves out to the 6m position after being set at True for last Saturday's program. The surface itself should be in outstanding order and it can easily stand up to a lot of racing, especially at this time of year. The natural layout of the circuit can lend itself to on-speed horses, but it wasn't impossible to cover ground and win when the rail was in the 6m position for the meeting last Thursday.

Trials have been very impressive and looks capable of winning on debut.
