Chris Nelson’s Doomben Best Bets Posted on May 25, 2018 | Posted by Chris Nelson Chris Nelson’s Best Bets RACE 2 No.2 Dark Dream Fairly obvious really however a ‘winner is a winner’ and this one looks over the line barring any incidents. Narrowly beaten over the mile trip two back before relishing the step up to 2000m in the Rough Habit here a fortnight ago racing away to score by a space just coasting over the concluding stages. On his way to the Derby in a fortnight the 2200m tomorrow looks made to order. SuperPick - Race 2 No. 2 Dark Dream - Win Boost RACE 7 No.3 Care To Think Drawn a tough gate tomorrow however is loaded with ability. Thought he and Impending were clearly the best two runs in the Doomben 10,000 and the step up to 1350m tomorrow is going to suit both. Can’t agree with the gap in price between the two with Impending much shorter in the early markets. I’d be surprised to see this one miss a place suggesting he’s a bet to nothing. RACE 8 No.3 Youngstar Chris Waller has a strong hand in tomorrow’s Group 1 Queensland Oaks and this filly just looks head and shoulders above her rivals. Came from last to win running away over 1805m at Newcastle before proving too strong over the concluding stages here in the Roses two weeks ago. She’ll lap up 2200m and from a good gate shouldn’t be giving away too much start. Looks the winner.
