THOROUGHBREDS
Morphettville: Race 2; #2 Cheval Savant
LAY: Cheval Savant (WIN) for 1 unit
Racing well but has only been knocking around at some lowly mid-week events in Victoria. Had all the favours as hot favourite at Ararat and still couldn't run down the winner. Should be thereabouts but price doesn't entertain.
LAY (WIN) #10. Wolfy for 4 units (Rated at: $11.00)
Wolfy was OK through the line first-up, he ran the fastest last 100m of the race with pattern against but is likely in a similar spot despite getting the blinkers off. Since settling outside lead at his second career start, he has only settled ahead of four, out of 54 horses in the run and is a very low percentage play.
LAY: 1. Airman (WIN) for 0.5 units (Rated at: $5)
I think he can run well and potentially win the race as he got to a high level pretty quickly last prep. However it is important to note Red Card beat him over this track and trip last prep under similar circumstances however gets a nice weight swing on Airman from that occasion and I expect she will be hard to get past in the straight with a solid second up record.
HARNESS
Albion Park: Race 1; #6 Ok Boomer
LAY: 6. Ok Boomer (WIN) for 1 unit (Rated at: $3.5)
Ok Boomer is 0/6 at the middle trip. From barrier 6 finding top is no given despite his blistering gate speed – Lanai and Romanee will be pushing out hard underneath. On this basis, willing to take Ok Boomer on.
