Chris Nelson’s Doomben Best Bets Posted on February 8, 2019 | Posted by Chris Nelson Chris Nelson’s Best Bets RACE 1 No.2 Bigboyroy Chris Waller trained youngster who ran into the impressive Epaumada at Eagle Farm a few weeks back. Although unable to run that smart looking filly down he did find the line well late taking ground off her over the concluding stages. Fitter, wiser and with an additional 200m tomorrow he can quickly shed his maiden status and kick the day off on a winning note. RACE 2 No.2 Reckless Choice Third up from a break tomorrow this consistent galloper from the O’Dea stable looks all set to strike. Beaten by a roughie first up on Magic Millions Day he was then shipped south finishing close up at Randwick. Back to a suitable grade tomorrow he only has to pull out a run similar to those he produced late last prep to prove too strong for his opposition. RACE 8 No.6 Star Reflection Kris Lees trained galloper who looks extremely well placed tomorrow rising to the 1350m trip. A Gold Coast winner over 1400m the week prior to Magic Millions he dropped back to 1200m last time out at Eagle Farm when closing off solidly behind Snoopy (who had a dream run) after jumping only averagely. Jeff Lloyd sticks and from a good alley this one should be winning! Best Bet Race 8 No.6 Star Reflection Best Value Race 9 No.1 Mishani Bullitt Quaddie 1, 10 5, 6, 10 6 1, 3, 9 Market Market
