Nope…

No joy from our two roughies yesterday, let’s see if there’s any joy from the three even rougher ones today!!

The Tuesday Trixie… at big odds!

Oakeys Choice

Goulburn R3

Had been going well in this grade at the turn of the year, so curious as to why he was shipped off to run in the picnics in Feb/March, where he ran three seconds, all close up. Good T&D stats and can get away quick, which will be handy over this 900m dash. At $12, he’s the sleeper in this field…

Sapphires Son

Goulburn R6

Generally around the pace but has been unable to sustain it. Ran a class record 18 months ago, so not sure what’s gone wrong. This would be a Hall of Fame miracle if he gets up at $151!!

Chico Sonado

Sale R8

Resumed from a 279 day spell 21 days ago, his one win coming on debut. Frontrunner who’d been going over longer, we thought the drop back to 1300m could suit, but he never emerged. Will be better for that though, Z Spain jumps on and rises to the 1736m here, but also back in grade. $41 looks tempting, again, a sleeper…
