LAUNCESTON
Race 6: GALENUS has got home for us in a couple of races after being noted in May 2020. The early form (7: 5-2) faded over the next three runs but his stats for this track and distance, jockey and going bode well for this today, and he’ll run fav in a close race at $3.30.
BET: 8 unit win
Race 8: HO HO KHAN bolted in by 4 lengths for us last time out at $5.50. Took a couple to get in the groove on return from HK but has hit his straps now. Has to carry 61kgs today, but can carry that home today as fav, $3 on offer…
BET: 10 unit win
Race 10: FIVEFINGERDISCOUNT has great stats for this, not out of the first two in four runs, including three on the mainland. Overcame a drift in betting last time out to get up for us at $5. He’s a $2.70 fav today and must go in…
BET: 8 unit win
MT GAMBIER
Race 5: DONATION produced a nice turn of foot to win at the Bool back in July, following up on two nice thirds, and returns after nearly 8 months in the paddock (see link for replay). Heads over to SA for this one, drawn wide but if he can tuck in handy again, he’s today’s sleeper at $16.
BET: 5 units ew
