David Shortte’s Preview
Cannington Saturday
Race 1: Number 8 ALKA CASEY
Came from this draw over this trip last week when an impressive winner in 43.00. Beat home Dyna Nihilist on that occasion and once again they loom as the two key chances in this. Enjoys using a bit of the track and with a repeat of last week’s effort will take stopping.
Trifecta : 2,8 / 2,8 / field. $30 spend = 250%
Race 2: Number 1 Oakland Raider
Race 3: Number 1 RAMIFICATIONS
Talented type who has won 11 of his 21 career starts and loves the cherry draw where he has had 2 tries for 2 wins. Five back won a Perth Cup heat in 29.88 and while he can be hit and miss at box rise when he steps can really run along. Looks the goods from the red.
First 4: 1 / 3, 4, 8 / field / field. $30 spend = 33.33%
Race 9: Number 1 Lorus Time
Race 11: Number 2 DOWNLIGHT
Grand campaigner who has taken a real fancy to this trip since the new track opened having 5 tries for 4 wins and a placing. He is a reliable beginner and with average luck should get the cash again. Classifield Boy is the main threat and they look a nice quinella play in the race.
