The summer carnival rolls into Eagle Farm this afternoon with another big day of feature racing.
Will Apache Chase book himself a ticket into next year’s Group 1 Stradbroke with a win in ‘The Gateway’ where he’ll go around a short priced favourite or will there be an upset? I’m firmly in the corner of the former!
Races 3 & 4 are set aside for the 2yo’s at Listed lever trying to build their bank balance as we get to within 5 weeks of Magic Millions Day.
Racing kicks off at 12.38 local time under warm sunny skies & on a Good (4) surface.
BEST BET
Race 8 # 7 GARIBALDI
Does appear very well placed this afternoon to bring up win number six.
Far from disgraced first up in the Swiss Ace at the Sunshine Coast (won by Zoustyle) after missing the start a couple of lengths he drops back to Class 6 company today & under the set weight conditions does appear ‘well in’.
Ryan Maloney will steer from a good alley & with a better getaway this afternoon can find a much closer spot in the run, from there he’ll get his chance.
BEST VALUE
Race 6 # 6 TYCOON EVIE
Consistent mare who is on the quick back up after a solid finishing effort at Doomben last Saturday.
She gets an additional 100m this afternoon which is going to suit as she gives every indication she looking for any rise in distance now.
As we know Eagle Farm is a ‘horses for courses’ track & her record of 4 wins & a placings suggests she’s a great chance & the market agrees with her pricing halving from the $14 quote she went up at Wednesday afternoon.
Race 7 # 5 TOTALLY CHARMED
Looks a race in two with this & his stablemate Shooting For Gold who both also come out of the Zoustyle race at the Sunshine Coast where they were the only two runners on the day to break 11 seconds their final 200m.
At the better price I’m with Totally Charmed who just might be ready to put in a career best prep.
