This week in Winning Post

This week's Winning Post will be available online here from Thursday 3pm AEST.

The three-year-olds take centre stage at four venues this Saturday with the Group 1 SA Derby, the Group 2 Queensland Guineas, the Group 3 Hawkesbury Guineas, the listed Bendigo Guineas and the listed Adelaide Guineas set down for decision.

In-form Victorian colt McWoody looks a top chance for the SA Derby at Morphettville, where apart from the classics the highlights include the Group 3 Port Adelaide Cup for the stayers and series finals for sprinters, milers and middle-distance types.

The Queensland action is at Eagle Farm, where the Victory Stakes for the weight-for-age sprinters and the Dalrello Stakes for two-year-old are among the supports.

Hawkesbury takes centre stage in NSW and support races include the Hakwesbury Gold Cup, Hawkesbury Crown and XXXX Gold Rush.

The other listed race at Bendigo is the Golden Mile, while the $250,000 VOBIS Gold Rush and the Gold Bracelet are the other highlights.

The feature at Ascot is the WA Sires' Produce Stakes.

Our coverage kicks off on Friday with fields, colours, previews and tips for all seven TAB meetings.

The metro racing this Saturday is at Bendigo in Victoria, Hawkesbury in NSW, Morphettville in Adelaide, Eagle Farm in Brisbane and Ascot in Perth.

Winning Post carries full-colour liftout guides for all those meetings plus Donald (Vic/SA edition), Newcastle (NSW edition) and the Gold Coast (Qld edition), as well as fields, tips, ratings and/or colours for other TAB Saturday cards.

On Sunday we've got liftout formguides for three more TAB meetings (plus Devonport in the Tassie edition), as well as fields, ratings, tips and colours for a stack more Sunday and Monday programs.

Don't forget Winning Post now carries trackwork reports for four Victorian training tracks, three in Sydney, Morphettville in Adelaide and a general Brisbane report.

Away from the form, we've got news columns from NSW, four Victorian districts, SA and Tasmania.

Our readers have their say on page four, while elsewhere in the book Shane Templeton reminisces, Paul Richards presents his unique take on the sport, Matt Stewart weighs in on the big issues and Number Cruncher delivers the stats that matter.

Winning Post costs $7.00 and is available Thursday afternoon online ($6), the crack of dawn Friday in shops.
