Today’s Tips: Saturday 19th November 2022
Nice winner from my mate’s book…
My mate’s assessment of Pearl of Alsace (5 units ew) was bang on yesterday as she bolted down the outside to win by a long neck, paying $50/$1.90, could have got $7 or better if you got on early… thanks Tel!!
We’ve got 26 from the book today… let’s sort the best from the rest…
THE BEST
INQUISITIVE
Awapuni, 2
Another Vela runner spotted by my Wellington spy. Won well on debut and goes around here after some scratchings in a small field as $10 outsider, worth a go.
BET: 6 unit win, exotics
LADIES MAN
Awapuni, 6
A killer on heavy tracks, surely Lisa boots this home, $1.85 fav.
BET: 10 unit win
SANTERO
Ballarat Turf Club, 1
Back after 3 months away and has a great first up record, strong over this distance and only out of the frame once in her past 13 runs. Down in grade and has won in higher grade, so the $21 on offer looks ridiculously attractive.
BET: 4 units ew, and would certainly spice up the exotics
ALL ABOUT EVE
Ballarat Turf Club, 4
Got up for her second win for us a month ago here, Johnny Allen sticks, and though up in grade her stats give her a chance in this at $9.
BET: 3 units ew
STAR OF CHAOS
Ballarat Turf Club, 5
Generally competitive and drops back in class significantly for this. $13 in a very open betting race.
BET: 3 units ew
VARDANI
Ballarat Turf Club, 6
Looks like the $26 shot that he is on his last two runs, but a closer look at his stats says he’s a shot in this. 4 for 7 over the distance, likes the good tracks and once again Johnny Allen sticks up top. Today’s sleeper…
BET: 5 units ew
ATISHU, BANKERS CHOICE, BERMADEZ, DESERT ICON
Ballarat, 8
We’ve got four in this, with the first two vying for favouritism way ahead of the rest of the field, yet the other two are certainly not out of contention.
BET: Include all four in a boxed trifecta, but looks like the top two provide the winner and quinella. 10 unit quinella the bet.
PIONEER RIVER, EXTREME FLIGHT
Ballarat Turf Club, 9
PR back in grade from Listed level, from a gun stable and rates a chance here at $13. EF, marginal chance only.
BET: PR 4 units ew, EF 2 units ew
RUSTIC STEEL
Kembla Grange, 8
Got up to win in a 20 horse field at Randwick for us three weeks back, excellent stats for this open betting race and must be a show at $8.
BET: 5 units ew
KING RATEL
Kembla Grange, 9
Capable on his day, ran a $21 third for us last time out, so could be about to run into some form, $31 on offer.
BET: 3 units ew
ROADTRIP
Sunshine Coast Turf Club, 3
Up0 in grade after a win and a third (at $26 for us) in his last two, chance at $12.
BET: 2 units ew
SHE’S THE GIFT
Sunshine Coast Turf Club, 8
Needed the run on resuming, and has a nice second up record (3:2-1) and like this distance and going. Collett jumps on for Waller, better than the $19 suggests…
BET: 2 units ew
YOUNG JIMMY
Morphettville, 9
Won four in a row early this year then had a couple of spells in the paddock before resuming here three weeks ago, needing the run. Has won second up and rates an EW chance in this at $12.
BET: 2 units ew
SERTIN
Toowoomba, 2
Place three of last four, EW today at $14
BET: 2 units ew
DEVIL RACER
Gosford Race Club Ltd, 1
Ran a second for us three weeks ago at SP $21, EW shot here under Hutchings at $6.50.
BET: 2 units ew
FIENDISH
Esperance Bay Turf Club, 4
Always thereabouts and won at Kalgoorlie for us recently. Should be too good for these at $2.30.
BET: 10 unit win
TURBEAU
Tatura Racing Club, 8
Needed the run on resuming, good second up stats plus T&D, and Mertens makes the trip to ride him as $3.30 fav.
BET: 6 unit win
THE REST

Pukekohe, 9

Pukekohe, 10
