OUR BEST
BR9 H6 SHOOTING FOR GOLD($3.60) Ran on super first up when too far back. Second up record is outstanding and the step out to the 1200m is ideal. The track suits and the wet track no concern. Only goes up a kilo from last run and from barrier 3 should be up closer to the speed and would be surprised if he is not in the finish!
SHOOTING FOR GOLD($); 4th beaten 7.2L, forget he went around he will atone.
SR3 H4 IMPULSE CONTROL($12) Ran on well on the worst part of the sludge fest at Randwick last start. The extra 100m will suit. Has run well at this track before and the wetter the better for him. Hopefully from barrier 4 he will be closer to the speed. Drops 1.5kg into this also and is in terrific form and can run well again.
IMULSE CONTROL($12); 5th beaten 4.66L, led on the outside of Budhwar and seemed to have every chance battled on.
SR9 H1 OUR PLAYBOY($5) Has been in his element this prep with the wet tracks around and strikes another today. The step out to the 1600m is ideal and from barrier 5 should be midfield and stalking the leading quartet here and will be steaming home over the top of them !! Huge chance.
OUR PLAYBOY($6); 4th beaten 2.27L, behind the speed in 4th place and when they quickened at the 600m he was left flatfooted. He ran on strongly at the end and raced like a horse that would appreciate further. An observation not an excuse.
MR H9 SIG POSITANO($4.60) Fought on super at Flemington first up. Second up stats are great and the 1200m suits. Has run well at the track, stays at 59kg and has run well at this level. Will be sitting midfield just behind the pace and will be charging home and hitting the front with 100m to go!
SIG POSITANO($5.50); 2nd/$2.70 place beaten 0.1L, close but no cigar. Midfield moved forward between runners in the straight seemed to be struggling at the distance then picked up to go down by the proverbial.
SUMMARY: Our Best horses didn’t perform last week but that’s racing sometimes. Hopefully this week we can get a bit more luck with Our Best. Lets dive straight into the Goldy The GC Guineas R7 and we find it hard to go past the fav. here in Prince Of Boom($3) Won his last two and staying at the 1200m suits 3rd up here. Has speed to overcome the wide draw. Sword Of State($4.80) won 2 from 2 last prep back home in NZ. Has great first up stats and loves the distance. Can lead his races but probably will take a sit behind the leaders here. If the fav does to much work early he’s the one that can pounce. Four Moves Ahead($13) she can run a different race here. Didn’t handle being ridden differently first up last prep and then was wide 2nd up. Will most likely get back from the gate and will be steaming home late. Loves the sting out of the ground. Grey Defence($23) been in terrific form this prep. Loves the wet tracks and will be just behind the pace here. Toughest test to date but will be running on strongly. Race 6 the Gold Coast Bracelet and we think Gypsy Goddess($1.90) can get the win here. Proven group 1 contender and only goes up 0.5 kg from last start and a huge drop in class. Hard to beat. Secret Tales($13) has been in terrific form of late and she loves the track and the slop. Toughest test to date but can run home well into a place. Canadian Dancer($6) bolted in with the Princess Stakes last start on a bog track. The step out to the 1800m will suit. Will be just behind the speed and be charging late! Dynasties($11) great return first up when held up at a vital stage and charged through the line. J Mac aboard is a huge bonus she will be steaming home. Gin Martini($9) battled on strongly in the Group 1 Australian Oaks last start. From barrier 11 can see her taking a sit so probably leads. Being a fit horse and if she gets a good lead she might be able to fend of all challengers late. Race 5 at the goldy just a quick mention of Bonham($9.50) and Yamazaki($4.20). Bonham the kiwi mare didn’t have the best of luck in two races in Melbourne last year. Likes the distance. Big watch on him first up. Yamazaki has had a trial win into this race and loves the track and distance. Huge chance. Great day of racing at the goldy today with showers and storms expected from early afternoon so downgrade possible if that eventuates. To all having a wager today good luck and racing is great entertainment so ” ALWAYS ENJOY YOUR RACING” cheers from Dan & Kerry Horsebuck$
