Quick Analysis:

Kicking the day off in Gosford with Merini. The filly draws wide, but I think she can overcome that with even luck. She started this prep quite well, with a second placing at Wyong by just 0.5L. She should be able to build on that run and get her first career win today. Jason Collett sticks with her, and the $4.00 is decent enough value.

Moe - Race 6, 5:30 PM

Top Pick:

Quick Analysis:

Heading over to Moe for Race 6, and it’s hard for me to make a case for anyone other than the favourite, Caffettiera, winning this one. The filly has been close all prep so far, but hasn’t managed to break through for a win. She draws barrier one for this race and gets a 2kg weight relief as well. All signs point towards a win for the 3YO.

Moe - Race 8, 6:30 PM

Top Pick: 

2. Kagemusha

Quick Analysis:

It’s a big field, and an open one at that, for the last of the day at Moe. I’ll be on Kagemusha for this one, who I think presents the best value in this field at the moment. The gelding will have to lug the top weight, but his performance at the trials has really caught my eye. He can kick off this prep in the best way possible from barrier nine.

Stats and Insights

  • Foxsky gets a favourable draw and has been racing consistently this campaign. He appears to be one of the main threats at decent odds in Race 4 at Moe.
  • Thunder Lights broke through for a maiden win at Port Macquarie last start and comes from the Kristen Buchanan stable. He looks a leading contender in Race 5 at Gosford.
  • Easiest Choice narrowly missed as favourite at Wyong last start and has already won twice from four runs this prep. He can go on with it in Race 8 at Gosford.
