Matt Young’s Saturday Northam Preview Posted on May 30, 2025May 30, 2025 | Posted by Matt Young Race 1 SHEHADI (7) is bouncing back to her better form and looks set to get the good run and will be very dangerous late in running. MUMMAS LITTLE STAR (1) has lifted recently and has options from the draw, won’t be far away. SYNCHRONIZER (2) comes in fresh and has a nice draw, the stable has plenty of horses returning so this will indicate how the rest go potentially. BATAVIA STREAMLINE (8) will get a soft run, novelty chance. JOE WITH THE FLOW (9) can run into the money on return. Tips: 7 1 2 8 Suggested Bet: SHEHADI (7) to win. Race 2 SWEET DUNCAN (9) has won his last two and done so in solid style, looks hard to beat again and has the depth to watch things unfold and make the move at the right stage. AMERICAN MONARCH (10) will be running on strongly and looks to be enough tempo to suit her. JOHNNY LOMBO (6) hit the line well last start and is ready to run a bold race. HOT CINDER (1) is a place chance from the draw, just off her best in recent runs. SLEEK AND SWEET (2) likes to be on speed, could run a bold race if she leads. LOCAL RESIDENT (4) hit the line well last few runs and can bob up at odds for the novelties. KOLISI (7) can be dangerous with even luck. ITSOKTOBEGREY (8) mixing his form since returning. Tips: 9 6 10 4 Suggested Bet: SWEET DUNCAN (9) to win. Race 3 SPEED FORCE (7) has drawn to get a good run, on the quick 24 hour back up but likely to be leaders back and will run a bold race. ASHIMA (1) has the speed to lead and should run a bold race in this grade. CIAO BABE (2) mixing her form but draw suggests she will be close enough. SPORTS CENTRAL (4) needs some luck from the draw and lacks a bit of tactical speed. VELVET SHADOW (9) also on the quick 24 hour back up and can run well with SHADRACH (10) who has a tough draw. Tips: 7 1 9 10 Suggested Bet: SPEED FORCE (7) to win. Race 4 LUCI KANE (1) and ALEXANDRA THEGREAT (2) could get into a little battle here, both horses are racing well and like to lead so there could be some tempo on. KEPTAIN COURAGEOUS (7) has a nice draw and can run into the placings and is a winning chance if the pace suits, which it could. SHES A MARE (8) will be running on strongly, looks like the race could suit her style and will be close enough. SIDSTREPO (4) needs some luck from the draw but is a novelty chance with KEAYANG JIGSAW (5) who has shown good promise but may have to do some work at certain stages. VINTAGE BLU (10) a place chance. Tips: 8 7 1 2 Suggested Bet: SHES A MARE (8) each way. Race 5 VELOCIPEDE (3) isn’t far away, has plenty of early speed and is a chance to cross, if he leads, he will run a bold race. MISTER LINTON (2) hit the line well first up and has the good draw, will run well here and major player if he could lead. BETTOR HAVE FAITH (5) on the quick 24 hour back up and just needs some tempo on but is holding good form. HAVEYOUMETTED (9) has the ability, keep safe from the back row draw. MADAM MAGGIE (1) is a place chance from the draw. Looks tougher for ALTA FREEWAY (6) from the draw tonight. Tips: 3 2 5 9 Suggested Bet: VELOCIPEDE (3) to win. Race 6 ACUSHLA MACHREE (8) is a gutsy mare who can overcome the 60m and the distance suits her, she can be driven like the best horse and is likely to be the last horse standing. DIAMOND WORLD (5) was bold in her victory last time out, handled the distance and stand and can go on with but this stands as a new challenge. DON’T GOIN THEWATER (2) and BREWERY LANE (3) are place chances with a safe getaway. FRANKIE MAJOR (7) is racing well and can run a bold race, has some winning claims. Tips: 8 5 7 2 Suggested Bet: ACUSHLA MACHREE (8) to win. Race 7 THE FIRST CUT (6) finds a suitable race on return, has placed 4 of 7 without winning and will no doubt be a better version this time in, expecting a few wins this preparation. WRITE RITE RIGHT (8) was bold in a recent trial behind the talented Chase Me, should run well on return. ATHREESHOTEAGLE (1) will run a better race from the improved draw. PICK ME (5) drops in grade on recent runs but the draw is awkward. DOUGS LEGACY (10) will be running on strongly, has shown promise in his career and can feature here. TAYLORS BOY FRED (7) was better last run and can be included in the novelties. Tips: 6 8 10 1 Suggested Bet: THE FIRST CUT (6) to win. Market Market
