Another Hall of Famer!
Well, you never know do you?
Despite being the least fancied of our five tips yesterday, 10 year old veteran mare Moscow Red (2 units ew) showed an amazing turn of foot to get up down the fence for a $24.50/$5.95 reward and another Hall of Fame entry…
We suggested a go on the exotics, and if you managed to wedge her in for the win, it paid over $1500 for the trifecta…
Backwater Trader was well back in the run but finished well to run fourth, enjoying the heavy going on his fav track…
Four from the book today more big odds on offer!
Four for Tuesday…
Fleming
Hawera R3
Early career form was excellent, and he went in the book this time last year at Awapuni after a 273 day break with a nice win. Obviously has had some issues with only one run last September before resuming 17 days ago at Hastings needing the run. Good heavy form (3:2-0) will have gained benefit from the first run, and gets M Hashizume up top, so keep safe at $9…
BET: 3 units ew
Gospodin, Not Ideal
Hawera R5
Gospodin has been going well without winning this prep, moves up to the 1400m today and relishes the heavy ground (15:7-3) and looks a chance at $19 in an open betting race. Not Ideal went well when returning from HK this time last year but form has dropped off since, his heavy form doesn’t look too flash (3:0-0) and this is arise in grade for him, $41 on offer.
BET: Gospodin 4 units ew, NI 2 units ew
Terminus
Rockhampton R5
Lot of chopping and changing stable-wise for this lad since he broke maidens in November with an eye-catching dominant win. Resumed from a six month break at Mackay last month fading after leading, then backed up 19 days ago at the same venue again just fading late for second. Fitter now and will need to be to beat this hotpot fav, $7 in a small field.
BET: 4 unit win
