Kicking off the action at 1:00pm (AEST), this year’s $120,000 Listed Inglis Debutant Stakes (1000m) features a final field of a dozen two-year-olds all having their maiden career start.

Five of the juveniles are currently under double figures in the Inglis Debutant Stakes odds at Ladbrokes.com.au, where you’ll get an extra 50% on your very first Fixed Odds winner on Races 1 – 5 at the meeting, including Thar ($3.20) jumping from barrier three with Hugh Bowman in the saddle.

The Godolphin youngster has had one official trial over 838m at Randwick on September 21 when crossing a half-length away second, who is tipped to run well for his in-form stable who has had so much luck this Melbourne Spring Racing Carnival.

Hot on his heels in the current Inglis Debutant Stakes betting markets at $3.60 is then Flying Jess drawn wider in gate 10 for apprentice hoop Patrick Moloney to overcome.

Prepared locally by John Moloney, the Hinchinbrook filly takes on the boys first-up on the back of an impressive four length winning 800m trial at Cranbourne on October 5 and should boast a fitness edge after that strong hit-out.

The next best in betting at $6 is Pearl Congenial drawn better in gate five with ace hoop Craig Williams riding the Robert Smerdon-trained daughter of Gio Ponti.

She has had two trials for a September 21 win at Cranbourne and a second at the same track and distance on October 5, Williams aboard both times getting a feel for the filly.

Rounding out the hopes under $10 for the win in a hard-to-pick Caulfield opener are Highland Beat ($7) and Magical Milly ($9).

David Hayes & Tom Dabernig prepare the nicely-bred Exceed And Excel colt Highland Beat who goes into the black-type without an official trial, but who looked sharp in a nice recent jump out.

Magical Milly meanwhile benefits from the inside draw set to get all the favours from barrier one with Glen Boss riding the promising Brent Stanley-trained Stryker filly who ran second in her September 21 trial behind Rylea Lass.

Also in the mix at more generous prices is Pakenham-based Onemorenomore filly Thomasina ($15) in barrier four on the back of her narrow trial win over Pearl Congenial from Monday and there is money coming in for Preemptive ($26 into $21) despite the wide barrier 11 draw for the Stryker colt.
