Today’s Tips: Sunday 28th August 2022
A more rewarding day yesterday as we bang in six more goals!
From our BEST selection, here’s what we had:
Loox Like a Pro (6 unit win), she finally gets up for us after eight placings, she’d been building to this and got home by 2 lengths at $3.50.
Shades of Rose (10 unit win) dear me, she made a mess of ‘em by 4.5 lengths at $1.60, heading for higher things, what a win!
Focus romped home at $3.10, our other horse Brilliant Mind was scratched, but the exotics were nice…
Zeefa Zed (5 units ew) stole in for third at $2.40, Frumos beaten into second surprisingly, Fire and Lady Brook run second and third to the rank outsider.
And from the Rest, how about these winners:
Inmyshadow $19.90
Tara Jasmine $9.90
Aeecee Dolce $5.40
Plus some nice placings:
Balalaika $1.90
I’m Thunderstruck $3.10
That’s twelve picks that provided 6 winners, 4 seconds and 2 thirds, 12 horse out of 30 for 40% win/place strike rate…
Nine for the book today, let’s close out the weekend with some more winners!
GNASHER
Hawera, 6
He won on debut at Counties last June, and opened this prep with a close second there this June. Heavy going suits him, as will the extra 200m and drop in grade, as well as the blinkers and the senior rider. $4.20 on offer.
BET: 8 unit win
INDEEM
Matamata, 5
Back-marker who’ll take some stopping if his last two runs are any indication… Has found some decent form, and the move back up to the mile should suit. $6 makes him ew material for sure.
BET: 5 units ew
WHO’S SAM
Matamata, 6
Found some form from somewhere to bolt in by 7 lengths at Avondale at odds last month. $4.40/$1.90 on 365, ew
BET: 5 units ew
CLEAR BLONDE
Wyong, 3
She’s been running in town in better grades than this, which should work in her favour today in this small field. $5 at the mo.
BET: 5 unit win
ROMANIA
Moe, 5
Went in the book on his only win at Mornington in December where Froggy kicked him home from the front. Has only briefly approached that form, but drops in grade today and Beau jumps back up after their third two runs back. Chance to redeem at $7.50
BET: 4 units ew
C’MON AND LOVE ME
Dubbo, 4
Went in the book May last year and has won twice and placed once for us. Rarely far away and capable of a decent finish, should go close in this small field.
BET: 5 unit win
TABULAM
Sunshine Coast, 8
Another one capable of a big finish, he’s run a couple of seconds for us and will be fitter for his recent second at the Gold Coast. Up in grade but good value and a chance at $19.
BET: 3 units ew
CORNELIAN BAY
Devonport, 4
He was spruiked on debut here two weeks back, was backed and ran as green as you like but won well. Natural improvement should ensure he goes close again today at $2.40.
BET: 10 unit win
SIR SIMON
Devonport, 7
Was a surprise winner at $8 for us a month ago, after a string of disappointing runs in Hobart. Not sure he warrants to $2 favouritism though…
BET: 5 unit win
