Just a second…
Back to basics yesterday, Interllectus running second for us paying $1.50.
Add two thirds to that in Hayai Mesu ($1.50) and Flattered ($1.55).
Seven from the book on a holiday Friday, and plenty of EW chances abound!!
Friday’s Magnificent Seven…
Classico
Otaki R4
A very disrupted career since noted breaking maidens in her second race in May last year. Resumed for a new yard here after a 301 day lay-off 20 days ago, and needed the run as expected. Should be fitter, win was on heavy, EW at $34.
BET: 3 units ew
Lurch
Otaki R6
A one-run maiden who ran seventh in his only race by nearly nine lengths, but we were watching… He was backed in late to around the $15 mark, last all the way and belted home, earning a next-time flag, and when he resumed after a 203 day spell, he ran a bold second. He really spruiked him up 56 days ago at Woodville, and he sat just off the pace before skating away to win as he liked, paying $20.30/$4.40. Up to the BM65 and if he’s comfy on the heavy he’s a must have EW bet at $10…

Free Spirit
Otaki R9
Struggling to make an impact at the moment, has decent T&Ds and heavy form and gets Lisa but still needs to lift, $12 shot in an open betting race…
BET: 3 units ew
Fiorente Spritz
Warracknabeal R7
Very consistent, runs her races out in very similar fashion but her win rate is a worry. EW shot here at $9 in an open race.
BET: 3 units ew
Ghost Doctor
Warracknabeal R9
Much improved run for the seasoned gelding when resuming 13 days a go at Bendigo with a second placing in a big field, running on well over the 1100m, so the extra 100m looks tempting, plus he drops back in grade for this. Stats not bad, and they’ve got him at the top of the book as $4.80 fav, every chance after that first run…
BET: 5 units ew
Sapphires Son
Moruya R4
Another with a better run last week, Nick Heywood kicking him home for second at Goulburn at huge odds and sticks today, he’ll give some cheek again today if he’s turned the corner, $18 on offer.
BET: 3 units ew
Gorush Lightning
Moruya R8
Yet another one with an improved showing last time out, this time a month ago at Moruya, racing on the pace and just edged out in the BM82 race. Drops back here to the BM74 and rates an EW chance at $12.
