Third is the word…
Third was the word of the day yesterday, and three of them at that!
Kermantic ($1.70). Kew Player ($2.70) and Taikun Tommy ($2.10) adding some money to the pot…
A raft of scratchings has brought us down to just four from the book today… they’re all good win/place chances, so take a look at an EW Yankee bet…
Put a Yank in yer tank!
VISTOWN
Pukekohe, 8
Very consistent this prep, and she has her hoof on the till… Will need to be at her best to beat the in-form fav, but looks a cert for at least a place at $5.
BET: 5 units ew
AUF WEIDERSEHEN
Mornington, 6
Caught the eye in April last year with a last to first finish at Benalla, subsequent runs not quite up to that performance, but he does get the heavy track that he craves today. This distance suits, and he’s a decent EW shot on that basis at $11.
BET: 4 units ew
MISS MIDUKI
Gawler, 5
Noted getting blocked and flying home for second on Boxing Day. Three subsequent runs on this track have seen her very close before 4 months in the paddock, and she needed the resuming run here two weeks back. Good second-up stats, watch for her late in this as a $12 shot…
BET: 4 units ew
WINNING ACES
Belmont, 4
Another one that will have aspirations late on… Noted breaking maidens in March last year with a huge burst from the rear and he’s rarely far off them. Gets out to his fav distance today third up and he can figure in this at $10…
