Chris Nelson’s Eagle Farm Best Bets Posted on April 12, 2019 | Posted by Chris Nelson Chris Nelson’s Best Bets RACE 1 No.8 Getyourgreyon Bel Esprit youngster on debut tomorrow for the Matt Dunn yard. He’s had the two recent trials both at the Gold Coast clocking in second behind Balerion in slick time before winning his latest on Monday when poking through along the rail to score under a good hold for Robbie Fradd. Expecting a strong debut performance. RACE 3 No.14 Seento Improving type from the Toby Edmonds stable who kept finding the line well at his home track two runs ago before missing the start at Doomben a fortnight back and giving away too much start. He did make solid ground though in a race where the winner sat up the pace throughout. No weight on his back tomorrow with the long run home in his favour. Great value. RACE 9 No.11 Scallopini Steven O’Dea trained galloper who has always promised plenty yet not quite delivered. This time in though aided by the return of Eagle Farm he’s starting to live up to that promise. A strong finishing type he needed to draw well or be bustled early at Doomben, at Eagle Farm though he can balance up early and produce in the straight which he’s done both starts this prep. Quaddie 1, 2, 5, 14 1, 2, 4 7, 11 2, 3, 5, 6, 16 Market Market
