Race by race overview
Race 6:
(4) Bolted In has placed in his last two starts and was hitting the line strongly last time out, so suited here today rising in distance to the 1600m. He sets up well from the inside barrier as there is speed out wide which gives him the chance for a soft run and has won at this track previously which can prove an advantage. (5) Moussaka is next best. (1) Rob The Bank has claims. (8) Limbering rounds out the numbers.
Selections:
(4) Bolted In
(5) Moussaka
(1) Rob The Bank
(8) Limbering
Suggested Bet: Win (4) Bolted In
Race 8:
(8) Cuban Waters was a winner two starts back at Oakbank before taking a sharp step up in level into a strong Saturday grade race. She was outclassed there so should be much better suited back down in level here today and gets a favourable race map. She races up on speed so should be suited on this track and with a potentially moderate speed in this race, she looks likely to land in a strong position and should take catching. (3) Territorian is next best. (2) Duo Perna has claims. (14) My Crackling rounds out the numbers.
Selections:
(8) Cuban Waters
(3) Territorian
(2) Duo Perna
(14) My Crackling
Suggested Bet: Win (8) Cuban Waters
