Quick Analysis:

Cool As Ted presents a little bit of value in my eyes, currently going around at a price of $4.80. The gelding broke his maiden last time out at Nowra, and currently boasts a career record of 7:1-2-1. Before his last-start win, he had back-to-back second placings. This isn’t a considerable step up, and he’ll have a lot of options from barrier three with Brodie Loy back in the saddle.

Quick Analysis:

It’s a small field for Race 4 at Canterbury today, and the favourite, Koolibah, looks difficult to beat. The 5YO drops back down to a BM72 after finishing third at Randwick in a BM78 last time out. We see another Chris Waller/ JMac pairing, and with a career record of 8: 2-2-1, she should be putting her rivals away in this one pretty easily. She does draw wide, but that means she can hopefully stay out of trouble.

Pakenham - Race 5, 10:15 PM

Quick Analysis:

Wrapping up today in Pakenham with Lomu. The 3YO is a last-start winner here at the track, and steps up to 1,400m, which I don’t think will be an issue. He has finished in the top three in his last four runs, and Brad Rawiller, who was on board for the win last time out, saddles up again. The pair draw barrier one, so if everything plays out well, they can save energy for the final straight.

Stats and Insights

  • Trevatt Court returns from a 24-week spell and has placed in a trial ahead of her first-up appearance. She’s got experience at the track and is the favourite for a reason in Race 5 at the Sunshine Coast.
  • Four Leaf Wonder scored a first-up victory at Emerald on a Soft track last start. He can build on that winning return and challenge for the win in Race 6 at Rockhampton.
  • Neziha is chasing a hat-trick after victories at Swan Hill and Pakenham Synthetic. She can extend her winning streak with another strong performance in Race 7 at Geelong.
