Rail Position: +10.5m 850m-400m; +9m Remainder of Course
Track Condition: Soft 6
Weather: Overcast
Penetrometer: 5.96
Best Bets:
WIN R7 N14 RIVER RACER
EACH WAY R6 N2 ZIN ZAN EDDIE
Race 1
5 RETURN ON EQUITY looks suited here second up, after a first up on a soft track when a short priced favorite. He gest the right run from the draw and looks hardest to beat.
Numbers: 5 – 2 – 4 – 1
Bet: WIN 5 RETURN ON EQUITY
Race 2
6 MISHANI ELECTRA resumes here after a productive preparation against some good quality horses. The 2kg claim for Taylor Marshal gives her a good weight pull on the favorite 2 MYSTIC MOON, and that will help. She looks to be on speed making her own luck and looks hard to beat.
Numbers: 6 – 2 – 1 – 4
Bet: WIN 6 MISHANI ELECTRA
Race 3
A difficult 2yr old to dissect with a number of horses first up here of nice trials. 1 RAINS APLENTY brings reasonable exposed form, just think the first starters have its measure. Mainly 2 SEASAR & 11 THE GREAT BOOMBINO look the 2, but not keen to bet.
Numbers: 2 – 11 – 1 – 7
Bet: Not Keen to play, WIN 2 & 11 if keen to bet.
Race 4
9 SERIOUS DOUBTS has been racing in tougher company, and with a good gate here, looks the one to beat here. 7 MISS POWDERKEG 8 OUR NETBANK S both look chances, along with 3 FLYING DEE JAY who started in the market early last prep, and has its first run here for C MUNCE
Numbers: 9 – 3 – 7 – 8
Bet: WIN 9 SERIOUS DOUBTS
Race 5
Looks a thin maiden race, with the 3yr 9 HIGH CHIEF the one beat. He started well in the market when a good second on a heavy track. Drawn well here in gate 2, and with race experience and fitness improvement will be hard to beat. 7 CURRUMBIN CRAFT was a beaten favorite last time, can bounce back here.
Numbers: 9 – 7 – 3 – 4
Bet: WIN 9 HIGH CHIEF
Race 6
I’m willing to give 2 ZIN ZAN EDDIE one more chance, after is ok effort last time. Been on him before this prep, just like the tongue tie going on, and the drop to midweek grade.
Numbers: 2 – 6 – 3 – 7
Bet: EACH WAY 2 ZIN ZAN EDDIE
Race 7
The race has been hammered by scratching’s and leaves 14 RIVER RACER the clear best horse in the race. Hasn’t missed a place first up, trialed well, carries no weight and just looks better than them. She raced extremely well in group and listed company last prep and should resume a winner here.
Numbers: 14 – 6 – 8 – 3
Bet: WIN 14 RIVER RACER
Race 8
7 DARK ELEMENT can continue to improve, and third up now at the trip should be race fitter and ready to run PB for the preparation. He is only raced, a winner of 1 from 4, and is a EW hope here.
Numbers: 7 – 2 – 5 – 4
Bet: EACH WAY 7 DARK ELEMENT
