Too rough!
Guess it was a big ask to expect two roughies with cumulative odds of over 150-1 to deliver, so I guess we’ll need to rely on the 27 tips we have from the book today…
NZ picks
GEE STRING
Awapuni, 3
Resumes after three months and has a decent first-up record, and with one placing on heavy. Won for us at $12 in his last run and gets his fav jockey onboard, and though up in grade could spice up the exotics here in this small field at $19.
BET: 4 unit win, exotics
TAKEITEASY
Awapuni, 4
Only win from 34 came on heavy a year ago, not sure he’s up to this, but can set them a merry dance from the front as a $16 shot.
BET: 2 units ew
CINDY FALLS
Ruakaka, 8
Big improvement last time out as we suggested up to the mile, paying $5 the place. She has a good finish in her and fitter now, certainly capable of taking this open betting race out at $6.50.
BET: 5 units ew
THE BEST OF AUS
JAYKAYANN
Sandown, 3
Progressing through the grades with some style, his last win by 6 lengths was something else… Surely continues her winning ways as $1.80 fav. Sell the farm.
BET: 10 unit win
CYCLONE SALLY, MOSCOW RED
Sandown, 4
CS’s last run saw a return to form with a SP $16 second for us. Excellent all-round stats for this, don’t discount as a $10 shot. MR is a model of consistency but might find this a bit tough…
BET: CS 4 units ew, MR 2 units ew
HE’S OUR BONNEVAL, HELLO BROADCAST
Sandown, 8
Both HOB’s runs back have had merit, and he really looks back on track this prep. Runs as $2.60 fav here under Billy Pinn. HB’s second here two back at BM100 was an eyecatcher, so warrants some respect as a $13 shot.
BET: HOB 8 unit win, HB 2 units ew, exotics
DAYTONA BAY
Sandown, 9
Great effort to hold Altivo out last run at $17. Easy EW bet at $4.60/$1.90
BET: 5 units ew
LADY BROOK
Randwick, 6
She needed the run here two weeks back, and does have a good second-up record. $21 on offer, and rates a chance.
BET: 3 units ew
DEMOCRACY MANIFEST
Randwick, 7
Good late here two weeks ago, suggesting the extra 200m will suit today as the $5 fav in an open event.
BET: 5 units ew
TITANIUM POWER, SUPER PURSUIT
Randwick, 9
TP is a frontrunner, has good stats all round and looks a solid EW bet in this. SP has only missed the top five once in 17 runs, has good first up stats, can figure here resuming after 3 months off at $16.
BET: TP 4 units ew, SP 3 units ew, exotics
POLYLITHIC
Toowoomba, 2
He’s hot from the front as shown 9 days ago over the short dash, but has good form at this level and distance. $4.60/$1.90 makes him easy to back EW in this.
BET: 5 units ew
COOL ENCOUNTER
Toowoomba, 3
Huge finish to run second three weeks back, hard to beat as $2.70 fav here.
BET: 8 unit win
