Chris Nelson’s Eagle Farm Best Bets

Posted on | Posted by Chris Nelson

RACE 1 No.5 Palladas

Plenty to like about the chances of this Tony Gollan trained galloper who was arguably a good thing beaten last time out at the Sunshine Coast. Trapped wide throughout on that occasion he was quite entitled to give ground down the straight however that wasn’t the case as he ran home solidly into 3rd beaten less than a length. Good alley with Michael Rodd to steer, hard to beat!

RACE 8 No.2 Profit

Had the ‘flashing lights’ all over him first up in the Listed Recognition at Doomben a fortnight back closing strongly from the back of the field. He’s always had big wraps on him and although only rising 50m in trip if jockey Matt McGillivray makes use of the inside draw and find a prominent enough position then his rivals will need to look out down the straight as he owns a very strong finishing burst.

RACE 9 No.13 Maozi

Really caught the eye second up closing late between runners and although perhaps looking for a shade further is still a good each-way chance tomorrow. She struck form toward the end of her last prep with a win and three consecutive placings before resuming in similar fashion with a strong finishing win at Doomben on Cup Day. Look for her to be steaming home late!
