Next timer…
Again, some tough watches yesterday, Royal Fox (3 units ew) played out his usual backmarker role and finished like a train, but never got near the up and coming fav, but a good sign that he’s on the way back to some decent form, paid $2.70 the place.
However, there was a gleam of hope in the returning run of Texas Tea, away for 536 days, the ex-Kiwi barrelled home from the back into fifth, he’s marked down as a next-timer for sure, won’t be paying $20 then!
Just the two today and an EW multi looks on the cards…
Today’s Two-fer…
JACK IN THE BOX
New Plymouth, 9
Our long and faithful wait was rewarded in September with a superb win at $18 on the heavy, but he failed on the firm going next time out, and yet agian on the heavy, where is arguably more effective. Jumps back up to the 2000m, capable of making the frame as an $11 shot…
BET: 3 units ew
BOLD TYPE
Cairns, 4
Only missed the placings once this prep, good T&Ds, but, hey, this is WA, they all have them! This is a 950m dash for the cash, no identifiable frontrunners in this line-up, so it looks like first up, best dressed. Tight betting event, should be a cert placegetter at $3.80.
BET: 3 units ew
