The Listed Abell Stakes is the highlight of racing at Moonee Valley on Friday night. Our best bet is a quality mare that loves this track.
Best Bet
Apache Song is a real Valley specialist who can break through for her first black type win here. She stepped up from BM84 to Group 2 company here last time out and ran a very respectable race to finish third. Despite her official rating leaping from 81 to 90, she stays on the 54Kg limit in this. As you would expect from a horse that thrives here, she will press forward and give herself every chance.
Recommended Price: $3.20
Confidence Level: 4/5

Loved the win of Mr Vivaci first up at Yarra Valley, giving nothing else a chance en route to winning by nine lengths. He also ran faster time than the BM58 on the same program. The Chris Waller trained three year old showed nice ability at his first prep and while this is tougher, he looks a very progressive type.
Recommended Price: $2.80

Moon And Back lines up for her 19th crack at the 955m or 1000m at Moonee Valley where she has a very good record of three wins and eight placings. She is a mare that needs things to unfold for her because she typically gets back in the field, but from barrier three with the claim for Tom Prebble, she shapes as an excellent knockout hope here at odds.
Recommended Price: $6.50
Confidence Level: 3/5
