Race by race overview
Race 3
(1) Hello Captain looks a progressive runner and was a good winner when tested 1st up. He looks progressive and remains in a similar grade so fitter now 2nd up and suited rising in distance so looks capable of winning again and working through his grades. (8) Wootton Way looks close to a win having run in the placings in her last 3 starts, expect she will be hitting the line strongly late here. (7) Roma Green resumes for his 2nd career prep having won both career starts to date, he won a recent trial and can race in a positive position from barrier 3 here. (9) Events ran into the placings in a stronger race last start and is proving to have a consistent record early into her career, her one career win came at this track so she could be best set up in these conditions.
Selections:
(1) Hello Captain
(8) Wootton Way
(7) Roma Green
(9) Events
Suggested Bet: (1) Hello Captain- WIN
Race 4
(1) Deepwater Artist was tough when winning last start having to had to do some early work up on the speed. He sets up for a softer run on speed here so could prove harder to catch and is proving to be a consistent performer. (2) Helen’s Way has the potential to lead the field up and if he can land in a positive position in the run he has the potential to control the tempo and prove tough to catch. (4) Rach broke through for an overdue win last start, she was hitting the line strongly so looks suited rising in distance again off the back of that last start effort. (3) Ballpark gets to peak fitness now 3rd up into the prep, in a race that could have a messy race map she can get a soft run which will give her every chance to get a soft run and be strong late.
Selections:
(1) Deepwater Artist
(2) Helen’s Way
(4) Rach
(3) Ballpark
Suggested Bet: (1) Deepwater Artist- WIN
