Trots

Matt Young’s Saturday Albany Preview

Posted on | Posted by Matt Young

Race 1

UP AND ALIVE (4) could get a nice run here, she is in good form and looks to be versatile and is holding good consistency this time in. JUST A PET (5) is likely to push forward to the breeze and stuck on well last time out, should keep the likely leader honest and that should be MISS MARCOPOLO (2) who was a good winner two starts ago, is up in grade but should give some cheek in front. NINETY MILE BEACH (3) is a novelty chance. WORLD COMBINATION (9) will be running on from the back with BLIND EDITION (8). DEKLA DIVA (1) a novelty chance from the soft draw.

Tips: 4 5 9 2

Suggested Bet: UP AND ALIVE (4) to win.

Race 2

SANFORD BART (10) is racing well but does face a tricky draw, looks suited here and can sprint powerfully in this grade. HEAVENLY BLISS (8) can show her best, but she is finding it hard to break through. BATAVIA STREAMLINE (6) could press forward and be handy to the lead, now fourth up into the preparation this class suits to see her further improve. SPORTS CENTRAL (9) will be running on. SUB MARINER (4) not racing at his best but can improve here and same for STEP IT UP (7).

Tips: 10 8 6 9

Suggested Bet: SANFORD BART (10) to win.

Race 3

SHES MY LITTLE GEM (9) is mixing her winning form, two starts ago she bolted in and last start she fell in, conundrum is the mare from two starts ago would win this comfortably, but last start concerned me, wouldn’t want to be diving in too short. ALTA HURRAH (8) caught the eye last run, and I do prefer him from a front row draw so it could be tricky. DEE JAYS BIG BOY (10) is going soundly, think he’s a few steps off his best. SANFORD HARRY (7) looks dangerous with even luck; his last run caught the eye. GALEOCERDO CUVIER (3) is a novelty chance with SPEED FORCE (5) who had his chance in front last time out.

Tips: 8 7 9 10

Suggested Bet: ALTA HURRAH (8) each way.

Race 4

Good race upcoming. NEVERTELLMETHEODDS (3) steps up in grade but is racing well, winning chance if he could lead but gets harder if he doesn’t find the top. LIQUIDATOR (2) holds the key in that aspect as she has plenty of early dash. ALEXANDRA THEGREAT (4) will come across and be close enough to them, last few have been better. THE BEACH MASTER (9) flashed home last time out and that was the first glimmer from him this time in, his best is right up to these. KEPTAIN COURAGEOUS (8) always a novelty chance. FUNKY MUSIC (7) will hug the rails and is racing well.

Tips: 9 3 4 8

Suggested Bet: THE BEACH MASTER (9) each way.

Race 5

ARIONROCK (10) is racing well, his form in metro grade has been solid and looks to be enough temp on paper to bring him right into this. DEL BOCAVISTA BAY (6) has peaked at the right time, and he will get the trip fine and be running on well. TUBBS FARQUHAR (5) likely to push hard towards the lead, he was a metro winner last time out and prior to that had been luckless. MAJIC BAY (9) was good in his most recent win, expect him to be powering home also. THOMSON BAY (8) a previous winner of this race is another capable type who finished well last time out. MAJOR FREEWAY (7) needs some luck from the draw. Distance queries over SNAKEY BAY (1) and EASTERN ADVANCE (2).

Tips: 10 6 9 8

Suggested Bet: ARIONROCK (10) to win.

Race 6

WESMEDAD (2) is a massive chance in this, if she finds the top I think she will win but if she has to park up in the breeze, I am expecting a big performance from her as well, keen. ALTA EXPRESS (1) was better last time out, has options from the draw. SAVE THIS DANCE (3) didn’t have much luck last time out and should settle close enough to feature. KOPPER KOTE (5) first up was solid, won’t be far away in the run and a repeat of that effort should see him in the mix. IM BOSS (6) improving but will need luck from the draw.

Tips: 2 1 3 5

Suggested Bet: WESMEDAD (2) to win.

Race 7

SHESA ENCHANTRESS (3) has improved and is now ready to win, looks suited here but the market might take a significant liking to her after a good second last time out. PAPPINBARRA LADY (1) is ideally drawn and has options, expecting a decent display here. LOWLANDS BEACH BOY (4) hasn’t been far away from the pointy end recently and is a one paced type of horse, likely to do some work in the run. MICKEY BE SWIFT (8) won’t be far away.

Tips: 3 1 4 8

Suggested Bet: PAPINBARRA LADY (1) each way.

Race 8

ALTA GABBANA (4) here we are again, she caught the eye last start after some disappointing runs prior and looks hard to beat, she hasn’t been able to put together two consistent runs but she’s out of the sin bin with me and I’m back on board. DEVIL MAN (2) is in the sin bin, gave him the benefit of the doubt when breezing two starts ago but last start he didn’t travel a yard, has ability but need to see more. PURELY PANDEMIC (1) didn’t dash that well when clear last start but will be close enough. OKAY DARLING (5) creates interest, trials have been just. DOWN TENNESSEE (6) is an improving type, wasn’t beaten far last time out but seems to lack top end speed at this stage of his career. GLOBAL HERITAGE (3) could improve off the first up effort.

Tips: 4 1 2 6

Suggested Bet: ALTA GABBANA (4) to win.
