The summer series of racing continues this Friday night under the bright lights of Canterbury Park Racecourse, where a competitive eight-race program awaits punters. The rail has been moved back to the true position, and although the surface is rated a Heavy 9 at the time of writing, an upgrade is expected at some stage. The action is scheduled to get underway at 6pm local time.
Best Bet: Morning Sun
Morning Sun has found the minor money on both occasions since arriving at the Annabel Neasham barn and appears set to peak third-up. The European son of Muhaarar has been ticking over nicely since coming to Australia, kicking off the preparation with a runner-up effort at Warwick Farm on January 1 before stepping up to BM78 level at Rosehill on February 3. The five-year-old seemingly peaked in his most recent start, and with fitness on his side to go along with some favourable wet-track conditions, there’s no doubt Morning Sun will be fighting out the finish.
Best Bet
Race 5 – 
#3 Morning Sun (4)
5yo Gelding | T: Annabel Neasham | J: Nash Rawiller (59kg)

Next Best: Dipsy Doodle
Considering Dipsy Doodle was first-up after a 38-week spell at Rosehill on February 3, the Godolphin filly was simply sensational without winning. The three-year-old faded back into a third-place finish after setting a hectic tempo, with the winner, Our Kobison, breaking a long-standing track record. Although she only had to carry the feather-light weight of 52kg, BM88 company was always going to prove a bridge too far first-up. Back to BM78 on Friday appears more manageable, and with top jockey James McDonald hopping back aboard, Dipsy Doodle will take plenty of chasing down this time.
Next Best
Race 7 – 
#5 Dipsy Doodle (7)
3yo Filly | T: James Cummings | J: James McDonald (57.5kg)

Next Best Again: Infinitive
Follow Files readers will know Infinitive was luckless in her latest attempt at Randwick on February 10. The Chris Waller-trained mare was about to let down with her devastating turn-of-foot when she ran into a wall of horses under Kerrin McEvoy. Once she did get some space to hit the gaps, Infinitive was the eye-catcher in a race that had a relatively small field and lacked a genuine tempo. That shouldn’t be the case in this full field of 12, and provided James McDonald can get this girl launching down the centre of the course, Infinitive should send punters home happy.
Next Best Again
Race 8 – 
#6 Infinitive (3)
4yo Mare | T: Chris Waller | J: James McDonald (58.5kg)
