Chris Nelson’s Doomben Best Bets Posted on September 14, 2018 | Posted by Chris Nelson Chris Nelson’s Best Bets RACE 1 No. 1 Baccarat Baby David Vandyke trained mare going for five straight tomorrow and I’m mystified as to the price being offered. Personally I was expecting near enough to odds-on however that’s clearly not the case with her being well into black figures. She’s done nothing wrong all prep and although 4 weeks between runs has trialled nicely in between. Win here and a spring trip to Melbourne awaits! RACE 2 No.2 Exoteric Absolutely zero luck at two of his past three starts and certainly deserves a win. Clear too late at Doomben three starts back before taken back down south by Chris Waller running a solid Randwick placing. Last start arguably should have won at the Sunshine Coast being held in a pocket unable to gain any clear running at any stage down the straight he looked to have plenty to offer. RACE 7 No.3 Order Again Class galloper who showed what he is capable of winning here over 1350m first up from a break producing a big finish courtesy of a strong tempo set early on. Completely the opposite at the Sunshine Coast last start he was the victim of a leisurely tempo which suited the winner Prioritise. They will again lock horns tomorrow however with more speed likely this one can turn the tables.
