Trots

Matt Young’s Friday Gloucester Park Preview

Posted on | Posted by Matt Young

Race 1

Open race. SUGAR SHAKE (3) is first up for the new stable and first up for quite a period, looks to have plenty of ability and must be respected as ready to go and go close. MAJOR THINKER (11) creates a lot of interest and the form is solid; the stable is firing also. CEE DEE THREE (1) is second up and has good early speed, strips fitter for the first up effort and shouldn’t be too far away. VINITA ROSE (2) was solid in defeat last time out and has the draw to be on speed or in front. RESET THE BAR (5) looks tested from the draw on what was seen first up in the state. DOURADO (10) will be dangerous with any luck, form has been first class recently but will have traffic issues from the draw. CHASING REX (12) a novelty chance.

Tips: 3 11 10 1

Suggested Bet: SUGAR SHAKE (3) each way.

Race 2

BETTOR ARCADE (10) is racing in top form and has the good draw to follow the potential leader, he was a winner two starts ago and thundered home in good closing sections last time out, will be very dangerous. XCITE ME (1) has the draw and may try and lead here, raced well on Monday and the prior run was solid too. LINCOLN RIVER (3) got home strongly in the same race as BETTOR ARCADE (10) but the draw doesn’t appear as suitable for him. LOUIE LEBEAU (7) has won his last two, but this is much harder. KURIOUS BOY (8) will be running home well but needs a track home. SPYGLASS (9) could be that track, this horse has good depth and can be put into it and form line is good to still be in the money.

Tips: 10 1 3 9

Suggested Bet: BETTOR ARCADE (10) each way.

Race 3

SEASIDE SERENADE (2) picks herself, she has a lot of ability and has won from all positions, looks the winner on paper. MISS AURA (1) ran well on debut when drawn out in barrier 9, only logical to see this horse from the pole and race experience improve sharply and be a very strong place chance. ALL OUT OF ACES (3) was solid in her debut victory but may have to run a similar race. WOODBRIDGE ROSE (5) could try and burn across here and if she was able to cross, she elevates to a strong place chance. SEASPIRIT (7) was nice on debut but the draw hurts. ARVANNAS WISH (10) will get a lovely run through and comes into strong novelty contention.

Tips: 2 1 5 10

Suggested Bet: MISS AURA (1) to place.

Race 4

IDEAL WHISPER (2) was impressive on debut and won impressively, he looks a push button racehorse and looks the likely leader in this and very hard to run down. HES THE BOSS (8) has depth and can run his race in patches, but you can see the ability runs deep and could be up to his toughest test to date. LEO NARRDO (12) was a good effort on debut racing against the map of the race; he now gets the perfect draw and expecting him to run a big race. TERBIUM (3) improved on start two and has some high speed. RUSSIAN SNIPER (5) has talent but looks to be a place chance in this. RIP TIDE (7) could use that early speed and be handy and should be included in the novelties. JETPACK (9) has talent but the draw hurts.

Tips: 2 8 12 7

Suggested Bet: LEO NARRDO (12) to place.

Race 5

Could be the charge of the light brigade here. FRANCO ENCORE (4) is a very quick beginner and looks suited at the mile to run a big race, he will likely be chips in to lead and if he doesn’t overdo it early, he will be hard to run down. BLAZING REACTOR (3) can go hard at the start but is second up and this is a rise in grade, can’t be dismissed that he can run a decent mile at his best. HOTLY PURSUED (8) is racing well, can be dicey at the start but likely to roll the arm as well. CAPTAIN RAVISHING (9) comes in fresh and draw hurts but richly talented. THELITTLE MASTER (7) is flying, and the tempo can bring him into it. CHIVALRY (6) comes in fresh. TUALOU (11) is a talented type and will follow through, he is first up so there is unknown to him.

Tips: 4 8 7 11

Suggested Bet: FRANCO ENCORE (4) to win.

Race 6

A lot of horses returning here so hard to line things up. HEAVENLY GIPSY (2) looks the leader and is a good front runner, her form started to drop off towards the end of the preparation and could be much better this time. PENNY BLACK (6) is pure class and has that toughness that will bring her into any race, she looks hard to hold out. LITTLE DARLING (8) was solid in victory and should improve nicely off that but the draw makes it challenging. WONDERFUL TO FLY (3) looked to be travelling when she ran into bother, novelty chance with MADAM PUBLISHER (4) who will be camped close enough. WATER LOU (5) is a hard horse to gauge, and ALTA ALLURE (7) rises in grade.

Tips: 2 6 8 3

Suggested Bet: HEAVENLY GIPSY/PENNY BLACK to Quinella

Race 7

SPITFIRE (9) was outstanding in a debut victory and will have to run a similar race here but looked to ease down at the line suggesting there could be more depth than what we saw with the first up win. FINAL COLLECT (7) has the draw advantage and looks a solid chance and must be respected. SPUDMEISTER (1) has the draw and speed to lead early, looks a place chance in this grade with HAVEYOUMETTED (3), MANHATTAN MOON (10) and LIL HAPPY FELLA (12) will be running on strongly.

Tips: 9 7 12 1

Suggested Bet: SPITFIRE (9) to win

Race 8

TRUNKEY CARRAWA (3) has good early speed and could bounce on the bunny here, lost no admirers when running second to Como El Viento in the Williams Cup and looks hard to beat if he could find the pegs. HOTFOOT IT (1) can mix his form and gate speed but it’s a nice draw for him and he has options. THE RIGHTEOUS (2) has a nice draw and looks a novelty chance as he can settle close to the speed. TUMBLIN DICE (11) will be running home well, he’s come back strongly. TRITTRITTBANGBANG (10) a novelty chance.

Tips: 3 1 11 10

Suggested Bet: TRUNKEY CARRAWA (3) to win.

Race 9

WISHING BELLE (8) is a star and she returns and looks the winner on paper but will be a good things price. MISS LEOPATRA (1) is on the rise and looks a serious type, will be a good test for her but she is still learning the caper. DROP THE ACE (3) has good early speed and could ping across, is a place to top 4 chance at best I’d say as she is most likely handing up to SOVEREIGN JEWEL (4) if she crosses. SOVEREIGN JEWEL (4) was solid on return and lived up to the talent she promised from last time in, expect her to run a good race if she could find the top. EL RAES GIRL (5), MA PETITE DAME (6) and CHEFS KISS (7) all have talent, but the draws hurt.

Tips: 8 1 4 3

Suggested Bet: 8/1,4/1,4 to Trifecta.

Race 10

Open race to finish. MIKIPELO (4) is racing well enough to be a strong suggestion in this race, has good early speed and looks to be on speed and dangerous. GIRL OF BRIGHTNESS (1) had every chance when leading last time out and has the draw to be close again and should be in the money. GREVIS (2) has the good draw, will be close enough and is going strongly. RELLIM (6) needs some luck from the draw but is a very consistent type. SWITCH BLADE (12) and PRIDDAH (11) chances.

Tips: 4 1 2 6

Suggested Bet: MIKIPELO (4) to win.
