This week in Winning Post

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

Australasia's weight-for-age championship is here, with the very best of the locals looking to fend off the challenge of Japanese star Prognosis.

Victorian stalwart Mr Brightside will be there, as will his nemesis Pride Of Jenni, imported mare Via Sistina and exciting three-year-old Broadsiding.

The Drummond Golf Vase for the derby hopefuls, the Fillies Classic and the Crystal Mile are on the undercard, while at Randwick the features are the Group 1 $2 million Spring Champion, the $2 million Invitation for fillies and mares and the $1 million Callander-Presnell for the three-year-old milers.

The weekend kicks off with Group 2 Moonee Valley Gold Cup night at The Valley on Friday, while Sunday's highlights include cup days at Sale and Coonabarabran. We've got full form guides for all three.

Our form coverage kicks off on Friday with a full form guide for The Valley (plus Launceston in the Tassie edition), as well as fields, colours and tips for the other Friday TAB meetings.

The metro racing this Saturday is at The Valley in Melbourne, Randwick in NSW, Morphettville in SA, Doomben in Brisbane and Ascot in Perth.

Winning Post carries full-colour liftout guides for all those meetings plus bet365 Yarra Valley (Vic/SA edition), Kembla Grange (NSW edition) and 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 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 all four Melbourne training tracks, all three in Sydney, Morphettville in Adelaide and a general Brisbane report.

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

Our readers have their say on page 6, while further back in the book Shane Templeton reminisces, Paul Richards presents his unique take on the sport, Tony Kneebone brings you his Snippets column and Number Cruncher delivers the stats that matter.

Winning Post costs $6 and is available Thursday afternoon online ($5), the crack of dawn Friday in shops.

Should major handicaps be readjusted at acceptance time to prevent stables compressing the weights?
