Five’ll make you feel alright!!

And what another great start to a year for PG’s Tips!

Last year, we kicked off 2024, with five winners, two seconds, two thirds and two fourths, plus a qadi and a treble!

An almost identical start to 2025, with five winners, three seconds, a third and two fourths, plus plenty of exotics to go with them!!

Nineteen from the book, with a 58% of tips providing a dividend, and 25% of them winners!! Let’s have a look at how that happened…

Poetic Champion got us off to a great start at Ellerslie in race two, keeping out the hotpot fav with a head win at $4.10.

Over in Aussie, Miraval Rose got up at the same price, Araletta backed up her resuming win with a close win at $2.50.

Major Share was a very well-supported fav at $1.20, and strolled in with a leg in the air, and All Play also backed-up her previous win with a dive right on the line to win at $3.90.

Places for Newfoundland, Vesper Lynd, Electric Evie, First Dance, Tuxedo and Let Fly at a massive $8.30 the place.

Just the two today, a fav and a roughie, both in with a shot…

Two for Thursday…

Puketiro

Tauranga R1

She resumed five weeks ago after a break and needing the run despite her previous 3:3-0 first-up stats. Her second-up stats are the polar opposite (3:0-0) but still rates a chance here as $3.10 fav, Craig Grylls takes the mount, drops in grade.

BET: 10 unit win

Scenic Rim

Kilcoy R8

Resumes from a 102 day break and drops in grade for this. Fav jock J Huxtable sticks, usually an on-pacer and the drop to 1200m should suit if he can jump well from the wide draw, has won 2 from 6 first-up, rates an EW shot at $13.

BET: 4 units ew
