Better than the bank!

Our one-hit wonder Monday runner won as expected (not always the case!), $1.40 if you got on ex-Kiwi Zambardo, $1.26 if you didn’t, not a great return but better than the bank!!

Three today, all very good EW prospects, EW Trixie the way to go…

Monday Kiwi…

Zambardo

Pakenham Synthetic R3

5:00pm

Former Kiwi who ran two promising thirds at Ashburton at the back end of last year before being whisked off to Aussie. Trialled up with a couple of placings in June and July before noted racing a close second in a better maiden than this 19 days ago. Ethan Brown sticks, looks very hard to beat as $1.40 fav…

BET: 10 unit win

Tuesday Trixie…

Primo

Home Hill R4

His resuming run in July was excellent but he’s been a few lengths off them in his past two up in this grade. The move up to 1830m could work in his favour, has a few lengths to make up on this fav from his last run. J Huxtable a nice booking up top, EW the way to go at $6.50.

BET: 4 units ew

Markwell Dreamer

Newcastle R5

Not far off without winning in recent runs, but drops hugely in grade from his fourth in the BM82 to this BM64. Will need to be on his toes early in this 900m dash and doesn’t have a great record on heavy, but worth an EW shot at $19.

BET: 3 units ew

Contributingfactor

Newcastle R8

He’s another one dropping to the BM64, this time from BM85, where has was a bit outclassed. Had been going well previously in this grade, goes OK on heavy and has T&D form, another EW chance at $7.50.

BET: 3 units ew
