Two from three…
A third and a fourth from our three yesterday…
Let’s get straight into today’s tips from the book, with six from NZ and 19 from Aussie to come…
NZ today…
Honey Badger, Gee String
Rotorua R3
HB has run two nice races resuming and she can improve on that as $4.20 second fav.
GS generally not too far off but he’s hard to catch, $34 shot.
BET: HB 5 units ew, GS 2 units ew
Dark Destroyer
Rotorua R6
Very hard to catch and has been well off in three runs this prep, $23 shot.
BET: 2 units ew
Karman Line
Rotorua R8
Fifth but less than a length away 14 days ago and sports some decent stats for this, well worth an EW shot at $10.
BET: 4 units ew
Lord Spencer
Trentham R4
Couple of thirds this prep but he’s probably better suited over jumps, maybe another EW shot at $7.50.
BET: 3 units ew
Enrico
Trentham R5
Good on his day, resumes after a 105 day spell and no first-up form, has won on heavy, EW at $7.50.
BET: 3 units ew
Best of Aussie
Matawai
Caulfield R5
Fav looks hard to beat here but Matawai is a consistent mare and could provide some value at $10, especially back to her fav 1400m.
BET: 4 units ew
The Open
Caulfield R8
Ditto here, and our lad will be better for the resuming run, value runner at $9.50 and Billy back onboard (8:5-3).
BET: 4 units ew
Very Sewreel
Morphettville R4
And again… Up in grade but ran home fast 21 days ago, EW at $10.
BET: 3 units ew
Reserve Bank
Morphettville R8
Hmm, and again, though this colt is in super form, winning his last two, both here, and he’ll be descending late, can win if the fav is not ready, $5.50 shot.
BET: 5 units ew
Sachem
Morphettville R9
Better for the resuming run, tidy stats, EW at $10.
BET: 3 units ew
Junebug, All Hunky Dory
Gosford R5
Very open betting race, these two ran first and second 23 days ago, up in class here and can figure at around the $8.50 mark.
BET: Both 3 units ew
Naval College
Gosford R7
Solid fourth on resuming 21 days ago, EW at $6.
BET: 3 units ew
Zoubaby
Gold Coast R6
Decent return 14 days ago, she’ll be right around the pace and rates a great EW shot at $7.50.
BET: 4 units ew
Antino, Fawkner Park
Gold Coast R7
Antino is a super-consistent little horse and has been running in G1 company, rates a chance with B Shinn up top. Open betting race with Buckaroo the class horse hard to beat.
FP also a G1 racer, the last three behind Via Sistina, EW at $8.50.
BET: Antino 4 units ew, FP 3 units ew
Kraken Time
Ascot R6
Noted her on NY Day, missed the start by five lengths and screamed home to miss by a nostril. We’ve been waiting and here he is, EW at $6.50.
BET: 5 units ew
