Race previews

Alexandra Park - 27 February 2026

Race 1 @ 5.16pm - #1 Opa's Girl, #6 Signman & #7 Critical Image
Opa's Girl compiled a nice record as a 2 year old before having a break. Her workouts have been sound, and the draw swings in her favour. I’m expecting a tidy showing.

Signman's debut effort four months ago showed he has plenty to offer. His last workout was super, and on exposed form he looks a nice each way chance.

Critical Image has had a couple of quiet confidence runs at the workouts. He’ll need luck from the draw, but is worthy of inclusion at good odds.

Race 5 @ 7.19pm - #3 Beta Prepare & #5 Final Change
Beta Prepare makes a return following a brief freshen up. There may be one or two in here that could be a bit sharper than him, but I’m sure he’ll go a solid race.

There’s no Sooner The Bettor in here so on that alone Final Change would have to be a good chance. He looks an each way player.

Race 7 @ 8.09pm - #1 Nazare
I’m sure he’ll have derived plenty of benefit from his first up outing. It’s a very good field but from the draw he won’t have to do any extra. He’s one to include in combination bets.

Race 9 @ 9.09pm - #4 Mako
He’s another who is making a return after a layoff. His workouts have been good, so he’s ready for a forward showing. I’d like to think he’s a nice top two chance.
