BOOMSHANKA!!
OK, who else is tipping winners resuming from 280 day breaks, paying $25.60 the win and $7.20 the place?
Well it’s us of course, that’s what we do!
Telegraph (4 units ew) stormed home down the middle of the straight for a superb return to racing, and another entry in the Hall of Fame. And the trifecta wasn’t bad at $827 if you anchored him to win that (as we did).
Our only other runner for the day Gold Tracker just got a touch too far back and screamed home for a close second, just denying us a memorable 125-1 multi….
Ten on a busy Tuesday, and we’re feeling very bullish after yesterday’s success!!
Tuesday’s Top Ten!!
Moscow Red
Seymour R5
Veteran 11 year old mare who snuck up the fence to get home this T&D, grade and going 36 days ago at a whopping $19. Alysha sticks, and if she’s up for it, then why not again at $8 today? Watch for her late…
BET: 4 units ew
Moxatation
Seymour R6
We were thinking he’d maybe be the sleeper at $41 16 days ago, he does get back but finishes on well, and he did it again to run fifth after some late support in to $26. Still not writing him off as the $101 outsider here, prefer him over longer, but if he gets away better, then look out late…
BET: 3 units ew
Tactfull
Seymour R7
Been close up in four runs this prep, with a win and a second to show for it. Up in grade a touch here, has form on heavy, and gets Zac Spain back up top, so the $18 looks tempting…
BET: 4 units ew
Hello Broadcast
Seymour R10
Former UK and HK runner returning from a 293 day spell, and had been running in same vastly higher grades than this. Depends how ready he is, and you’d think he’d need the hitout, but he’s $8 at the moment, so watch the betting and keep safe…
BET: 3 units ew
Oenology
Tamworth R5
Resuming from 13 months in the paddock, down in grade but likely to need this. Best form on soft and placed 4 from 4 at this distance, $7.50 on offer…
BET: 3 units ew
Legal Challenge
Home Hill R4
Noted at his last win, which was three years ago, but fair to say he’s not reproduced that form since, though usually not far off. Resumes after 151 days and will need to find some form to figure at $7.50 in this…
BET: 3 units ew
Terminus
Home Hill R6
Interestingly, his four runs this prep after changing stables has seen him lead then fall away late. Back in grade, back in distance, if he flies the gates again as he usually does, he’ll be hard to catch, $18 on offer, sleeper!
BET: 4 units ew
Turbeau, Brilliant Mind
Home Hill R8
Open betting race, with our two featured at the top of the market. Turbeau resumed with an ordinary run at Townsville 24 days ago, good second-up stats and gets Whiteley up top, $4 fav. BM has dropped off a bit this prep after racking up four wins in a row late last year, frontrunner who needs to pick up his game, $5 on offer.
BET: T 4 units ew, BM 3 units ew, exotics
Set The Sails
Home Hill R9
Early career form was promising but has obviously had some issues. Returned from a 434 day lay-off with a decent fifth but then ran next to last a month ago at Townsville. Back on good ground and up to the 1460m will help, but needs to lift at $21.
