Nice placing…

Two placings yesterday, with Winning Aces the standout, running second paying $4.40 the place…

Six for TGIF, one hot-pot and some big odds on offer…

TGIF Super Six…

Secret Location

Townsville R4

Resumed from a 6 month break five weeks ago and ran a close third at bog odds before an out of character run for last 13 days ago, but form prior was excellent with 4 wins from 6. Up to the mile, though still may be a tad short for him, but is 1:1 in the grade and fav jockey sticks. $20 on offer, could feature in this…

BET: 3 units ew

Turbeau

Townsville R6

Turbeau resumed from a 170 day break 10 days ago with a nice second and the rise to 1200m should suit. Finished last prep in nice form with a win and two seconds. Has some tidy stats for this (4:1-2 at the track, 9:2-2 second-up). Wiggins is 2:1-1 onboard again rates a decent EW shot in this.

BET: 4 units ew

Great Point

Scone R6

Resuming from an 88 day spell, he showed massive acceleration to score here in December but failed to fire when seemingly suited up to the mile at Randwick in a tougher Highway race. Returned here late Jan and flew home to seemingly to win only to get nicked on the line, then ran a sixth same T&D. Had a trial three weeks ago, not sure the drop back to 1300m suits but could feature late, $34 on offer…

BET: 3 units ew

Who Ever Thought, Indifference

Scone R8

Two wins for WET in Sept/Oct caught the eye but hasn’t backed that up this prep. Has form this track and distance and looks a good EW shot at $6 in a very open betting race.

Indifference resumes after 244 days away and despite a win in July he didn’t go well last prep at all. Up in grade, won once first-up but likely to need this at $26.

BET: WET 4 units ew, Indifference 2 units ew

Bold Response

Cranbourne R6

Consistent this prep, down in grade here and looks hard to run down once he hits the front, $2.40 fav.

BET: 10 unit win
