Shane Ciurleo has Ipswich covered for Oaks Day

IPSWICH 9-11-2017

 

Rail Position: 3 meters Entire Course.

Track Condition: Soft 6 (Expecting an Upgrade)

 

Best Bets:

Not a lot of value on the card, so looking later in the day at a couple at reasonable odds.

Race 6 Number 2 I’M ANTMAN Each Way

Race 7 Number 9 SCARLETT HUSSIE win

 

Race 1

Small field to start the day, in an 800m scamper that is best left alone. 3 MISHANI ELECTRA opens a short priced favorite, she has drawn 6 of 6, and will likely have to sit outside 1 ROYAL MYTH to win. 1 ROYAL MYTH comes back to 800m off a freshen up, she is very speedy and a leading hope.

Numbers: 1 – 3 – 4 – 2

Bet: WIN 1 ROYAL MYTH

 

Race 2

5 GIRL IN A MILLION leads from the inside draw, and looks very hard to beat. 2 BONSHO will be fitter after her last run, when she just tired late of a freshen up. 4 WUDANG BLADE can sit on the back of 5 GIRL IN A MILLION and fill a place also.

Numbers: 5 – 2 – 4 – 6

Bet: WIN 5 GIRL IN A MILLION

 

Race 3

1 LOCUS led and bolted in here last start, looks to repeat the dose here today. 3 KEEP ON LOVING made good late ground last start, a repeat of that will see him in the money here. They look the 2 chances in the small field.

Numbers: 1-3-4-2

Bet: Quin & Exacta 1 & 3

 

Race 4

3 CUBAN SAGA is lightly raced and looks the horse with the most upside here. First up last prep she beat Mishani Bullet & Hang, both winners since, before running into Group 1 winner Capital Gain at her next start. She has trialed well enough to be winning here.

Numbers: 3 – 5 – 6 – 2

Win: 3 CUBAN SAGA

 

Race 5

A horrible race to have as a leg of the QD, with too many unknowns for my liking. 1 CORNFORTH has had 10 starts for 9 minor placings. His effort behind Hang & Ten Taubada’s was good, as both those horses have since won. He gets the Blinkers first time here today, and if that doesn’t do the trick, I’m not sure he will ever win one. 4 INWITHACHANCE hasn’t been scene at the public trials, so is an absolute mystery runner, the market is our guide there. 5 PERFECT WITNESS has trialed ok, and again the market will guide us with his chances.

Numbers: 1-5-2-3

Bet: WIN 1 CORNFORTH

 

Race 6

 

Keen on the chances of 2 I’M ANTMAN who I think can roll across and be on speed, and take some beating. He was good enough last start at his first go at the mile, and this field has no stars in it. I’ve been on 8 PRINCELY SUM his last 2 starts, but with his racing pattern and wide gate, I’m giving him a miss today.

Numbers: 2 – 8 – 5 – 4

Bet: WIN 2 I’M ANTMAN

 

Race 7

Just the 7 runners in the get out, with 1 EL SHADAY coming up the short priced favorite. I thought he come up way too short at $1,80, so I’m happy to be on 9 SCARLETT HUSSIE at the better price. I thought she was dragged out the back from the wide gate last start, before rushing home late.  The small field suits and looks the horse to beat.

Numbers: 9 – 1 – 2 – 5

Bet: WIN 9 SCARLETT HUSSIE
