Race 8 – BM 70 (1200m)
(4) SHADY THINKER is a very smart horse from the Bain & Taylor yard who returns here off two very sharp trials. Think he’s improved since last preparation and he draws to get a gun run from 2 for Holder who is riding better than anyone in the state. Think this horse will be lining up in much stronger races than this in the spring and keen to be with him fresh.
(11) ZUNNA was a strong winner last time out but this is a stiffer test but she has talent and gets the right run from 6. (3) RICHE D’AMOUR has ability on his day and he will have the last crack at them. Good horse when he gets things his way. A few other minor chances but think they’ll need all the favours to beat Shady Thinker.
Betting Suggestion:
Back (4) SHADY THINKER win.
