Chris Nelson’s Sunshine Coast Best Bets Posted on July 13, 2018 | Posted by Chris Nelson Chris Nelson’s Best Bets RACE 2 No.9 Wild ‘n’ Famous Former team Snowden trained galloper now based on the Gold Coast he does appear well placed here on his effort to split Tyzone and I’m A Rippa two starts back on his new home circuit. He’s had the one subsequent start when drifting too far back before closing off nicely at Ipswich. Freshened up and with no weight on the back tomorrow I’m expecting a good run. RACE 5 No.4 Fit For Purpose Strong finishing winner on Ipswich Cup day accounting for the subsequent winner Bluebrook he was then sent around in the Listed Glasshouse here when missing the start and finishing out of the placings behind the dominant winner Jamaican Rain. Back to his right grade tomorrow and up to the mile he should find himself a lot closer in the run and ready to strike in the straight. RACE 8 No.11 Pressway Looks ideally placed tomorrow after beating all bar a rampant Shogun Sun here a fortnight back. Liked the way he stuck to his guns down the straight and he faces easier opposition this time around. His record at the track is a good one, his record at the track and over this distance is even better and he just loves the wet ground. Plenty of ticks!
