Tips and race-by-race guide for Goulburn on Friday
Selections based on a soft track.
Race 1
9. Magical Elegance broke through to score a win on the Beaumont track at Newcastle at her third start and was then spelled. She resumes here on the back of two trials and finished fourth in the latest of them at Warwick Farm. She should be primed to run a bold race. 4. Miss Backchat was first-up from a spell at this track when last produced and she managed to score a strong win after racing on the speed. She can go on with the job here. 3. Let's Go Brandon is a last-start maiden winner at this track after leading throughout and has claims again on that effort. 2. Twin Telepathy resumes and is a first-up winner.
How to play it: Magical Elegance to win.
Race 2
8. Everlasting Stars won at this track in a small field when resuming from a spell. She was then just behind the placings on the Kensington track before a last start third here. She will benefit from the apprentice claim here. 3. A Book Of Days is resuming from a spell for a new stable. He's a former Victorian with a solid record and bears close watching fresh. 2. Voigner won at Quirindi last October then was midfield at Taree before being spelled. He's had two solid trials to prepare for this return. 5. Vella's Best is resuming from a long break and won a recent trial on the Acton track at Canberra in preparation.
How to play it: Everlasting Stars to win.
Race 3
10. Offenbach resumed from a spell with a solid second at Newcastle but then disappointed at Hawkesbury at his latest start. He can be forgiven for that performance and given another chance
to atone in this. 7. Yvette finished third in both her starts at Canterbury and resumes from a lengthy spell in this with two trials under her belt. 4. Sweet About Me is on debut and finished midfield in a trial at this track. 2. Cloud Of Dust ran second on the Acton track two starts ago at Canberra and will find this easier than a last start seventh at Warwick Farm.
How to play it: Offenbach to win.
Race 4
9. Stormy Malice has had plenty of chances but has been racing well enough of late with two seconds from her latest three starts. 1. London Boy has shown ability with three placings from four starts. He hit the line well for a last-start second at Warren and warrants thought again. 2. The Bus is on debut from a good draw and has had one trial at this track. 5. Darken is a last-start third placegetter that could get into the minor money again.
How to play it: Stormy Malice to win.

NSW star Brian To'o to be selected for State of Origin decider despite injury cloud
Brian To'o will be selected for the third State of Origin match despite his knee injury in a major boost to NSW's chances of clinching a series win. To'o went for scans on Saturday after hurting his knee and requiring ice following Thursday night's win over Canterbury. But it's understood To'o will be selected for the third Origin match in Sydney on July 9. The superstar winger also overcame an untimely hamstring setback to play Origin II in Perth. To'o was the Blues' best player in their tight game-two loss, scoring three tries and running for a game-high 229 metres.

Eagles debutant praised after seizing big moment on debut
West Coast debutant Jobe Shanahan has kicked his first AFL goal and shown fantastic signs of what he could become as the Eagles are putting enormous pressure on ladder leaders Collingwood at Marvel Stadium. Shanahan played as both a forward and defender during his junior career and has also played at both ends in the WAFL. But he's playing as a forward in his AFL debut and has showcased plenty of skill. He flew for several early marks without being able to haul in the ball, but once he got a taste of the game, Shanahan looked comfortable at the highest level. The Victorian took a brilliant leading mark during the second term and nailed his set shot from about 50m out to put West Coast in front. Former Collingwood coach Nathan Buckley was full of praise for what he was witnessing. 'I'm smiling. How composed was he?' he said on Fox Footy. Jobe Shanahan.

Darcy Moore is no slouch in terms of intercepts and that's the second mark he's been able to take out basically at full tilt out in front of him. 'He's only 18 but he's a likely type. He's got really strong legs. He's going to grow and fill out really well. To be able to finish with that composure is excellent.' West Coast selected Shanahan at pick 30 in last season's national draft. They have had plenty of challenges to fill their key position stocks this season following the departure of Tom Barrass to Hawthorn and Jeremy McGovern being forced to retire due to concussion.

But Shanahan has given them plenty of confidence that they have a youngster who is powerful in the air.
