Slim pickings…
A solitary third from Alf’s Magic was yesterday’s sole result…
Not to worry, chance to redeem ourselves with 10 tips for Hump Day!
Ten for Hump Day…
WAILUA
Sandown, 3
Went in the book this time last year with a last-to-first run, but not approached that since. $9 here.
BET: 2 units ew
LUNA CAT, WANGO AWARD
Sandown, 4
These two should dominate betting, LC has been going well without winning this prep, the extra 100m will suit this fast-finisher, fav at $3.70. WA won two her first two up this prep for us, then finished very close in a 3YOF event at Flem, Will also be dropping in late as a $5 shot.
BET: 5 units ew both, 10 unit quinella looks good!
EXTREME FLIGHT, VULTAN, JESTA DREAMA, CYCLONE SALLY
Sandown, 8
I like ‘em in that order, EF showing enough at odds on resumption, running second at MV to suggest he’ll be very competitive today at $7. Vultan was fifth in that race, and will also strip fitter, good EW shot at $19. JD has been super-honest, though the jump to BM84 has proved a bit too much. Drops a touch here and along with CS is a $126 shot, which seem generous…
BET: EF 5 units ew, V 3 units ew, JD and CS 2 units ew, include all in exotics.
STANISLAUS
Kensington, 2
He returned in good order in Feb with a dominant win for us, then followed up with a close second at Warwick Farm three weeks back. $4.80 shot, very backable EW.
BET: 5 units ew
LITTLE RICH BOY
Strathalbyn, 3
Drops in grade for this and can run close as a $5.50 shot. Up in distance for this.
BET: 5 unit win
BEACH WEST
Belmont, 2
She’s been going well for us, with a win and three seconds from five runs this prep. Up in grade but a live chance at $11 in this small field.
BET: 6 unit win
