8:30 Hamilton Tips

Led until inside the final half-furlong over the extended mile here last time out in a Class 4. Eased a pound in the handicap and drops in grade to Class 5.

Has won 5 of last 7 starts including over this course and distance on penultimate start. Up 4lbs but in this form that is likely to be manageable and should be there or thereabouts in hat trick attempt

Given the current stable form, it is worth having a small interest in the Linda Perratt-trained Starliner. Starliner is well below his previous winning mark and has shown up well in his last couple of runs. He will handle the ground and has the added bonus of having Kaiya Fraser in the saddle, who could cap a breakthrough week for himself with another winner.
