A Devine winner for our Hall of Fame!
Kool Bird was an absolute placegetter – if not winner – denied yesterday at Moruya…
Jumped at the back from the wide draw, then caught on the fence, but shuffled out at the final bend and got blocked no less than FOUR times in the straight. Next-timer for sure…
But we did strike a winner, and a Hall of Famer at that, as Devine Miss (3 units ew) powered home at $10.80/$3.40, headed the $176 trifecta and anchored us to the qadi…
Four from the book for the midweeks, three of them very much live EW shots, one of them a big odds outsider…
Four for the midweeks…
Sweysive
Canterbury R5
Very consistent who resumed this prep needing the first two runs, then ran an improver’s fifth 21 days ago this T&D. Frontrunner, decent T&D stats and under Josh Parr (8:2-4 who sticks today). Feel if he’s ridden a touch conservatively he can take this out as third fas at $6.
BET: 5 units ew
Eye Pea Oh
Canterbury R6
Two improved runs featuring big finishes have had her earmarked as a next-timer in both her last two races, just need her a touch closer in the run and with McEvoy booked for this, they clearly think she’s a chance in this. So do we, $5 in a very open betting race…
BET: 5 units ew
Bon Appetit
Sandown R8
Absolute frontrunner who caught the eye a month back at Pak with a dominant win. Up in grade but gets Ms Hefel onboard, great EW shot at $26, sleeper!
BET: 5 units ew
Winning Aces
Belmont R7
His early form this prep has dissipated somewhat. Back on a firmer track might help, but $34 looks about right…
BET: 2 units ew
