Doomben Heavy Track, Rosehill Soft Trrack, Flemington Soft Track; Best Bets; Doomben race 3 Mount Nebo($8.50) this horse loves the mud and this track, up front will be no place for the faint hearted and that will suit this horse, watch for him steaming home over the top of them. Doomben race 6 Candika($11) this filly also excels in wet ground, she has been in outstanding form this prep, we feel with a nice sit in transit she can strike the lead turning for home and be super hard to run down. Rosehill race 6 Broadside($7) this horse can either lead or take a sit, he is up a notch class wise but drops 1.5kgs, he is ultra consistent and should get the perfect run from gate 3. Once he gets to the front it should be game, set and match. Flemington race 8 Longeron($12) we really fancy this horse, this is his pet distance, barrier 9 is a little tricky but he will go forward and either lead or hopefully get a nice sit. He handles soft or good conditions so he is adaptable we expect him to be there when the whips are cracking. Flemington race 9 Scapa Cove this fellow is drawn to get a beautiful run, he also can handle good or soft conditions, originally we thought Stormsabrewing could win again but there is a nice 3kilo weight turnaround in favour of Scapa Cove, that should be enough. Longshot; Flemington race 3 Almonteel($16) he is also up in grade but it is not the strongest BM84 around, beat a subsequent winner last start and drops 5kgs after the claim. Another that likes to settle up on the speed and with 51.5kgs that just might be the clincher in a tight finish. Remember Ringo‘s A Rockstar and Tshahitsi, we had both as best bets at their last start, both ran unplaced but should have saluted, they are both in today and the only reason we don’t have them in our best today is because of their barriers. We do have Ringo’s on top in his race but Tshahitsi second in his, the outside gate at Flemington over 1400m is suicidal, but whatever you do in those races I would be having something on at the good odds on offer. Notice we have done the form for Flemington as soft(5), there are some showers around down there. Already been downgraded from a good 3 to a good 4. Tshahitsi has been scratched, we will wait for him another day. On that note have a great weekend and “GOOD LUCK” to all horsebuck$ followers. HORSEBUCK$
