Trent Cooper’s Gloucester Park Preview Posted on May 3, 2018May 3, 2018 | Posted by Trent Cooper Trent Cooper’s Preview Race 1: GANNON’S HARNESS RACING COLOURS 3YO MS PACE BRIGHT DIAMOND (7) led and was pressured throughout when a brave 2nd to Bechers Brook before winning on protest in a weaker field on Tuesday. He is drawn wide here but is in form and should give a good sight. ONE OFF DELIGHT (2) hasn’t started inside barrier seven at his last five starts and should be big improver from this draw. CARRERA MACH (5) finished just behind the placegetters last start and should be thereabouts again. THISBEACHRIGHTTHERE (9) won well on Monday and Warwick sticks with him. Tips: 7 2 5 9 Suggested Bet: BRIGHT DIAMOND (7) to win. Race 2: GANNON’S TROPHIES MS PACE ONEONTHEWOOD (1) has been unplaced at his past seven starts but must be considered from the pole. He may get crossed at the start but is versatile and should be there at the business end. TRUSTYTREV (2) is racing well and his gate speed should ensure he is prominent throughout. MESSI (4) has been disappointing but will improve if he can find the top. BILLY MACK (6) was a close up 4th in the Kellerberrin Cup on Sunday and can work in his races. Tips: 1 2 4 5 Suggested Bet: ONEONTHEWOOD (1) to win. Race 3: GANNON’S AWARDS MS PACE WHOZIDEAWASTHIS (5) has resumed from a spell in hot form, winning three of his five starts and ran a very nice 2nd to Rocknroll Lincoln here last week. This looks easier and he is clearly the one to beat. OHOKA DARCY (3) ran on strongly when 3rd to WHOZIDEAWASTHIS (5) last start and can be in the money again. HOT FRATERNITY (10) hasn’t been able to hang on when leading at his last two starts but should be running on if he can get clear late. WABI SABI (1) is drawn to be a great place chance. Tips: 5 3 10 1 Suggested Bet: WHOZIDEAWASTHIS (5) to win. Race 4: WWW.GANNONS.COM.AU MS PACE BETTORS FIRE (2) was a good all the way winner before not getting out as quick as expected last week and not getting clear until too late. This field is stronger but he is drawn to lead and is clearly the one to beat. SHANDALE (4) was great during the Inters series and only finished 11m from Lazaraus in the final and is first up tonight. OUR JIMMY JOHNSTONE (7) was a strong 2nd last week and should be thereabouts again. ZENNART (8) is flying in weaker company but will find it harder from out here up in grade. Tips: 2 4 7 8 Suggested Bet: BETTORS FIRE (2) to win. Race 5: LAURIE KENNEDY RACE FOR ROSES MARES DISCRETIONARY HANDICAP SS PACE BETTER B CHEVRON (8) has been placed at her past three starts including a 2nd in 1.54.6 behind Major Reality. This is her first standing start race but she qualified from the tapes in a recent trial and will give a great sight if she steps safely. MACZAFFAIR (13) won her last four starts before a spell and warmed up for this with an impressive Wanneroo stand trial victory and can overcome her 30m handicap. SARAH GOODY (10) has been impressive at her first two starts back from a spell and should be thereabouts. EDEN FRANCO (11) is better known as a speed horse from the mobile but has won from the stand in NZ. Tips: 8 13 10 11 Suggested Bet: BETTER B CHEVRON (8) to win. Race 6: GANNON’S WA OAKS MS PACE LIBERTY ROSE (1) won two of the Oaks Preludes, the latest a comfortable all the way win. She then worked very hard when a brave 2nd last week and is clearly the one to beat from the pole. OUR ANGEL OF HARLEM (10) showed a lot in her first four starts in WA despite only winning once but she did disappoint last week. SOHO BURNING LOVE (11) was held up at a crucial stage when a fast finishing 3rd in the Victorian Oaks and must be considered. DETROIT LILY (5) had the race run to suit last week but was impressive and can play a part. Tips: 1 10 11 5 Suggested Bet: LIBERTY ROSE (1) to win. Race 7: GANNON’S FLAGS AND BANNERS MS PACE OUR ZAK WHITBY (2) has been sound at his last three following consecutive wins and gets his chance here. He looks likely to find the top and is the one to beat. RISK (9) is working back to his best and was very impressive in overcoming a wide draw to win last week. DREDLOCK ROCKSTAR (4) has been placed at his past two starts and should be handy from this draw. TRISON (1) was only narrowly beaten last time he drew the pole and can improve. Tips: 2 9 4 1 Suggested Bet: OUR ZAK WHITBY (2) to win. Race 8: GANNON’S BLINKERS MS PACE TUAS DELIGHT (3) disappointed with five unplaced runs to start this campaign but improved last week when 3rd in 1.53.7 and is drawn to be a leading contender tonight. ARDENS CONCORD (7) has been placed at his two WA starts, the latest a 3rd to El Jacko and he should open his winning account soon. ROBERT THE BRUCE (10) faced the breeze when 5th in the same event and will enjoy a softer trip tonight. ESTILO (2) will enjoy a soft trip and can be placed at odds. Tips: 3 7 10 2 Suggested Bet: TUAS DELIGHT (3) to win. Race 9: GANNON’S HARNESS SADDLE CLOTHS MS PACE LORD WILLOUGHBY (5) is yet to miss a place in 17 starts this campaign and was a strong 2nd to Mister Versace last week. He is drawn outside his main rivals tonight but should still prove hard to beat. LUIS ALBERTO (2) was a strong winner in good time before he didn’t handle the rise in class last week but will appreciate this company tonight. SEA ME SMILE (1) has the hood added and will be handy in the run from the pole. RUNAWAY THREE (3) was a solid 4th on Monday and should enjoy a nice run in transit. Tips: 5 2 1 3 Suggested Bet: LORD WILLOUGHBY (5) to win. SuperPick - Race 9 No. 5 LORD WILLOUGHBY - Money Back Race 10: FIND GANNON’S ON FACEBOOK MS PACE SIMBA BROMAC (2) has 11 wins and three 2nds from his last 15 starts and should lead and win from this barrier. DOMINATE THE DOJO (12) was a beaten favourite at his first run in WA but should strip fitter and can be placed. CHIAROSCURO (9) was an impressive winner at his last start but the draw makes it tough. MISTER ROLLINS (1) is going to get a perfect run and looks a place chance. Tips: 2 12 9 1 Suggested Bet: SIMBA BROMAC (2) to win Bet Now
