One placegetter, and one to watch…
A close second from Pahang (4 units ew) at $2.80, while Royal Fox finished fast from the back for a fourth.
Eight from the book on Hump Day…
Eight from the book…
POSSIBLY SO
Warwick Farm, 5
Won his first two for us this prep, Cavallo sticks, he’s got a great record on the horse, and his last start second from last had merit, and this is his distance. Value as the $31 outsider.
BET: 3 units ew
RITA MAY
Warwick Farm, 7
Rarely far off, and two good runs this prep has her ready in an open betting race at $6.
BET: 5 units ew
DESTINATION
Warwick Farm, 8
Finished well for third last time out. Gibbons sticks in another open affair, EW shot at $8.50.
BET: 4 units ew
DESERT NYMPH
Belmont, 1
Spotted blocked for a run last month and noted. $5 shot here and very backable EW.
BET: 5 units ew
MAKTASTIC
Belmont, 6
Overdue a win after four runners-up finishes in a row and will roll out as fav here at his fav distance and going. Can add to his single win.
BET: 8 unit win
ZOUDINI
Belmont, 7
Back from an 8 month break, and has a good first up record. Trialled twice for this and Parnham sticks, EW shot at $4.
BET: 3 units ew
GALENUS, FIVEFINGERDISCOUNT
Launceston, 6
Galenus has been struggling to regain his best form, this is his fav T&D, and he does get Pires up top, so a chance at $3.40 in a small field. Last win a year ago tomorrow. FFD got up for us here in August at $41, ordinary since, but his last-start fourth suggest he has a shot at $11. Good T&D stats.
BET: Can have a small win wager on both (3 units ew), maybe include in exotics.
