Opinion
Back within the city limits and off to Rosehill this Saturday, unfortunately the run of heavy tracks looks set to continue, but there are still ten winners to be found, and there looks to be a bit of value across a card that would have been Wednesday-class about six weeks ago.
Best bet: Race 6 – 6 Dynasties (3 units @ $2.60)
Dynasties returns from a successful trip to the Gold Coast, she takes on the boys here but drops in class and should relish the trip and the conditions. Fair gap to the others on my numbers, drawn nicely and Berry a good appointment.
Value bet: Race 9 – 17 Mach Schnell (1 unit @ $12)
Don’t know much about this Kiwi, but he’s come over and won for Joe Pride already, and while this is a few levels up, most of the others are pretending at this grade. Then there’s the weight. From 59s and 58s, the Schnell will lug the featherweight of 50.5 on Saturday if Reece stays off the big breakfast, meaning this boy might just keep running when the whips are cracking.
