Trots

Matt Young’s Tuesday Gloucester Park Preview

Race 1

GALVINSTON JOHN (4) has good early speed and looks a strong chance to cross to the pegs and can show his best at the shorter distance, appears suited here. ITSOKTOBEGREY (1) debuts for the Tracy Reay stable, has some speed and best is good enough to earn but has been quite inconsistent as of late. MONTERIO (5) suited in this grade and can improve, likely heads forward and will be close enough. METEOROID (10) has a nice draw and will be running on well with MY ULTIMATE KEVVIE (12) and other novelty chances to ZUEDE (3), OURFIRSTIMPRESSION (7) and FIORD (9).

Tips: 4 10 5 1

Suggested Bet: GALVINSTON JOHN (4) each way.


Race 2

Early speed a good battle. LUHRSY (4) looks likely to be on speed, and this is a significant drop in grade, if he can find the pegs I think he will be very hard to beat in this. MACH FREEWAY (1) is a likely improver from the draw and will be looking to hold up and the big horse will improve here. CANELO (8) is racing well, needs some luck from the draw but will be running on strongly. BETTOR WASH UP (2) has some early speed and has more ability than his numerical form is suggesting. ARISE LAZARUS (5), CHIEF COPY (7), BEALAWYER (9), AMERICAN TYPHOON (10) and DAMAGE DONE (11) all top 4 chances.

Tips: 4 1 8 2

Suggested Bet: LUHRSY (4) each way.


Race 3

GRAND COUTEAU (9) faces a difficult draw but is a high classed mare who will be better for the first up effort and can do the work required in this race, go well. CHARIVARI (5) was a decent effort last time out and looks a decent chance, especially if he can lead. FLOAT MY BOAT (2) can be a tricky horse to follow but has the draw to be handy and dangerous. HOTFOOT IT (3) will head forward and is a chance to be about the money with the consistent ZLATO (6), AKOYA PEARL (8), SEAGRASS (11) and SOHO CONFIDENTIAL (12).

Tips: 9 5 2 11

Suggested Bet: GRAND COUTEAU (9) each way.


Race 4

RAKERO RAIDER (11) is racing well, and the draw suits him to settle close enough to the speed and will be getting home strongly. BLITZAR (1) has the speed to race handy and can be fiery, will have some company early with BEAT THE BANK (3) who is racing well and looks a chance, PUSHBUTTON ROCK (5) can ping out and be a chance in this, might be driven forward. DEL BOCAVISTA BAY (8) is racing consistently but faces a difficult draw. SISTER CHERIE (10) needs luck from her draw but should run on with BEYOND THE SEA (7) who’s best is right up to these.

Tips: 11 7 5 1

Suggested Bet: RAKERO RAIDER (11) each way.


Race 5

Open race. CLOUD NINE (1) back with a good draw and could be driven forward and try to lead, going well enough to be quite cheeky in this. STAR OF ORION (11) improves with every run this preparation and will be getting home well, this is a suitable grade. RAVENOUS ROMEO (3) has come back well this preparation and will be close enough, slight rise in grade. INTO THE FUTURE (12) will get home well, he is knocking on the door but always requires a few things to go his way. STRIKE MASTER (2) always about the place and is a novelty chance with SHECANPLAY (7) and EYE BETTER (8).

Tips: 1 11 3 12

Suggested Bet: STAR OF ORION (11) each way.


Race 6

GRACE ELLA (1) can turn the tables tonight on GINGER SNAPS (3) who draws to her disadvantage, GRACE ELLA (1) has the better draw and will be better for the experience and looks hard to beat. GINGER SNAPS (3) elevated nicely time wise and may have to do it a bit tougher in this. FEAR THE STORM (8) hit the line well last time out and must overcome a difficult draw but will run a good race with WINTER SURGE (6) who looks a reasonable type, solid chance to be in the money. ROMAN GUARD (7), IDEAL DIAMOND (9) and BROOME BEACH (11) will be running on strongly.

Tips: 1 3 6 8

Suggested Bet: GRACE ELLA (1) to win.


Race 7

TOKYO SUNRISE (2) hit the line well last time out and looks to be a progressive type, made strong in roads to break through last time out, looks a suitable grade and will go close. ELQUESTRO (8) faces a challenging draw but has a good amount of high speed. ACKNOWLEDGEMENT (4) is racing in solid form and must be respected as a chance. OUR MATE JEFF (10) could be an improver and will go better with a run under his belt. JIMMYS RAINBOW (5) faces a tricky draw and looks a novelty chance.

Tips: 2 8 4 5

Suggested Bet: TOKYO SUNRISE (2) to win.


Race 8

PRINCESS DIAMOND (8) has a tricky draw to overcome but has good ability, she can still be a bit rocky which is head in hands type of stuff but is looking a strong chance to make it three in a row. LUCK FROM ABOVE (4) can bounce out and lead early and be on speed, better last effort and must be respected off the back of the last run. MARGIMAC (6) will also run the arm and is a chance to lead, wasn’t a bad effort after running solidly last time out. OUR SERAPHINA (5) is capable, watch the market and could run well on return. BONPOPPY (2) is a novelty chance.

Tips: 8 4 6 5

Suggested Bet: PRINCESS DIAMOND (8) to win.
