Back to basics…

Back to basics yesterday, with only Call Me Iggy finding a place behind the obvious winner in Enxuto…

Ten from the book today, definitely some winners in there today!!

Thursday’s Top Ten…

Kattegat

Tauherenikau R6

She’s been very consistent, with only one missed placing this prep and she was close up even in that, strong EW chance as $4.80 second fav.

BET: 5 units ew

Manifique

Tauherenikau R7

Eighth of nine in the G3 Trentham 26 days ago, but not for off. Back in grade and distance and rates a real chance at $8.50 in an open betting race.

BET: 5 units ew

Dreamstone

Wangaratta R3

Up in grade and distance was her undoing 13 days ago at the Valley, will find this easier and will try to  lead all the way again, $3.50 fav.

BET: 10 unit win

Real Gun, King Of The Bounty

Wangaratta R7

RG found his best form on NY Eve, racing away for a superb win. Loves the firmer footing, can go on with it as $3.20 fav.

KOTB was tracking along nicely but never got out of first gear 17 days ago at Albury. Has T&D stats but needs to lift based on the last run, $41 shot…

BET: RG 10 unit win, KOTB 2 units ew, exotics

Ditterich

Albury R6

On-pacer who just couldn’t get there 18 days ago but worth another chance in this, $7.00 on offer.

BET: 4 units ew

Night Fighter

Scone R8

Resumes from a 116 day spell having won his last two of the previous prep. No first-up form to speak of but won a recent trial and jockey has won up top before, chance at $13…

BET: 4 units ew

Scenic Rim

Beaudesert R6

Closer last time out but needs a massive lift to figure, $41 outsider.

BET: 2 units ew

Mombasa, Alterno

Geraldton R4

Mombasa has a big finish in him, but will need to be within range coming back to the mile. Great T&Ds here, big chance to break through as $3.20 fav.

Alterno rarely far off, and with some improvement can figure in the finish at $11.00, but it has been a while…

BET: Mombasa 10 unit win, Alterno 3 un its ew, exotics
