    🔥 The Mailbag Preview Show is back for Episode 316! This week Jack Dickens, Jono Rayner & Butch Bourne dive into a massive Moonee Valley card featuring the Cox Plate, McEwen Stakes, Crystal Mile, and Fillies Classic. Big fields, bold opinions, and plenty of betting angles — this is one you don’t want to miss! 🏇 3 Point Motors Fillies Classic (Race 4) The 3-year-old fillies take centre stage over 1600m under set weights, and it’s a deep line-up this year. Expect the conversation to centre around which fillies are ready to make the leap from promising types to genuine spring stars. - The “who’s the real deal?” narrative dominates the build-up - Early tempo and settling position are critical — you can’t be too far off them here - Recent winners have gone on to serious spring form, so this race matters 🏁 Alinta Energy Crystal Mile (Race 7) A 1600m WFA clash for seasoned gallopers, the Crystal Mile is always a key test before the big end-of-spring Group 1s. Punters will be watching how the milers handle the tight Moonee Valley circuit and whether class or toughness wins out. - WFA mile brings together stayers dropping back and milers on the rise - The map and Valley bend will be critical for positioning - Recent winners often springboard into Group 1 form — this race is a proper marker ⚡ McEwen Stakes (Race 8) The McEwen is always fast and furious — 1000m of pure speed, pressure and precision. Expect fireworks early as the sprinters look to own the Valley rail. - Charm Stone has generated buzz as a standout contender over the short trip - Early speed and gate position absolutely everything here - Horses that can handle the bend and accelerate off it usually come out on top 🏆 Cox Plate (Race 10) The main event — 2040m of weight-for-age glory. The Cox Plate defines champions, and this year’s edition looks a cracker. Last year’s hero Via Sistina headlines, but a deep field means nothing’s a given. - Via Sistina chasing back-to-back glory as the hot favourite - Form over 2000m+ and tactical nous are key around the Valley - Expect high tension and high class — the race where legends are made 📍 Chapters: 0:00 – Intro 06:16 – Moonee Valley: R4 Fillies Classic 11:17 – Moonee Valley: R7 Crystal Mile 15:54 – Moonee Valley: R8 McEwen Stakes 20:23 – Moonee Valley: R10 Cox Plate 28:30 – Mailbag Bloodstock Opportunities 28:50 – Mailbag Betting Weekend 🔥 Join the Community 🧠 VIC + NSW Mounting Yard Mails – Pistol Pete & Rob Scurry live from the track 📊 VIC Rated Prices – Jack Dickens has every runner rated on Wednesdays & Saturdays 💰 Perth Plays – Pistol Pete finds all the angles for every WA metro meeting 👉 https://www.themailbag.com.au/ 📣 Sponsorships or Collabs?
