One placegetter…
A single return for our efforts yesterday, with Allusionist running third at $4.30 the place.
Four from the book, all in with EW chances…
Four for Thursday…
BEACH WEST
Belmont, 6
She led all the way to break maidens at Northam in August before spelling. Ran second on resuming, then sixth, both at this track, $6.50 EW chance in a very open betting field.
BET: 3 units ew
ALTERNO
Belmont, 7
Bit out of sorts at the end of last prep but returns today after a 6 month spell on the back of a trial second here recently. Drops in both grade and distance and does have some good first stats. $34 shot.
BET: 3 units ew
KEW PLAYER
Pakenham, 7
Flew home to win in a blanket finish at a staggering $16/$4 for us late last month. Another backmarker who’ll be dropping in late, the extra distance looks ideal, and the $10 looks tempting.
BET: 5 units ew
OUR BAEZ
Goulburn, 7
She’s a get-back type who won on resumption for us, plus two more runs this prep have been good. Watch for her late as $5 second fav.
BET: 5 units ew
