40% return a dividend…
Not quite up to our usual winning percentage yesterday, just the one winner to show, but a massive amount of posts hit, with six seconds, two thirds and five fourth, overall a 40% dividend return rate from our 35 tips…
Karman Line pulled out the grittiest of runs to get up at Matamata at a juicy $10/$2.50.
Place odds for a host of horses, Poetic Champion ($3.80), Alabama Lass ($1.20), Idyllic ($1.90), Aegon ($2.70), Mankayan ($1.80), Caracas ($1.70), Little Rich Boy ($4.60), and Markwell Dreamer ($1.90).
Fourths for Palazzo Prince, Fawkner Prince, Fire Love, Artful Tawny and Polylithic.
Five for Sunday, let’s have a look…
Five for Sunday…
MATRIARCH ROSE
Ballarat, 5
Her big finish at Bendigo for fourth in September earned her a next-time flag, and she duly obliged three weeks later here, then a similar run for third up in BM70, also here. Finished that prep up in grade and only 6.3 lengths off the leader at Flem before heading to the paddock. Resumes after 108 days back to the BM64, winning jockey sticks, bit of concern back to 1200m but if they can get her closer in the run, she can finish over the top of these as $3.90 second fav.
BET: 8 unit win
POSSIBLY SO
Mudgee, 7
He was down in the weights in a Highway at Randwick 50 days ago and having his second recent go at the mile after making some headway previously, and came with a withering burst to get up in the line at a staggering $38.20/$6.20! Trialled without much effect since an drops back to the 1400m, so like the above tip, will need to be closer to the pace in order to unleash late. $12 on offer in a very open betting event.
BET: 4 units ew
WILD ROCKET
Mudgee, 8
Another resuming from a break, nearly six months, has only won once past couple of years, she was $201 last time out… Sitting at $61 as the outsider here, even fav jockey onboard will leave her a big task here…
BET: 2 units ew
TWICE ON SUNDAY
Sunshine Coast, 2
Close betting, five horse race here, won two back here at this T&D and she loves the heavy going. Can bounce back and win this at $4.40.
BET: 8 unit win
VERY SEWREEL
Launceston, 7
On-pacer who was suited at the Valley with a win two back. Tried to lead at Hobart up to the 2100m 14 days ago but got nabbed late by today’s fav, who made it five in a row, and the third fav here. Looks like a race in these three, but we’re sticking with our filly to improve at her second go at this distance, $2.70 on offer.
BET: 8 unit win
