Marburg, Sunday 1 September
RACE 1
KEAYANG AVA (1) showed some gate speed last start at Albion Park before obtaining a trail. Was shuffled right out of it but still appeared to hit the line reasonably well.
STONES (2) trialled well enough for a race of this nature. Only beaten a couple of metres and showed good gate speed there.
MELTON SCHLEGER (4) returns in this race. Strong third two back behind Sinabun.
ALWAYSMISSINGYOU (8) trialled up moderately well for a maiden of this nature. Appeared to be travelling fairly easily when hitting the line.
SELECTIONS: KEAYANG AVA (1), STONES (2), MELTON SCHLEGER (4), ALWAYSMISSINGYOU (8)
SUGGESTED BET: KEAYANG AVA (1) to win.
RACE 2
BATMAN BART (1) showed gate speed last start before being left outside the leader. Battled on well enough to suggest he’d be hard to beat in a race of this nature.
CHAKANA (6) draws to get plenty of favours. Can hit the line well off a soft trip.
TROUPER JUJON (7) ran up the sprint lane two runs ago and was just beaten by a horse that had momentum wider on the track.
MAN OF ACTION (8) worked to the line moderately two back at Albion Park. This race appears easier.
SELECTIONS: BATMAN JUJON (1), CHAKANA (6), TROUPER JUJON (7), MAN OF ACTION (8)
SUGGESTED BET: BATMAN JUJON (1) to win.
RACE 3
MONTEREY JACK (1) showed some gate speed last start but was unable to get over to the pegs. Gains the perfect draw in this race and if able to lead would prove very hard to beat.
DOWNTOWN MANHATTAN (8) ran on strongly two starts ago to score an easy win. Would be suited by a strong tempo.
BABY GINNIE (6) ran on strongly four starts ago into second and generally appreciates a soft run on the pegs.
MACH TORQUE (7) has been mixing his form. His best form is good enough.
SELECTIONS: MONTEREY JACK (1), DOWNTOWN MANHATTAN (8), BABY GINNIE (6), MACH TORQUE (7)
SUGGESTED BET: MONTEREY JACK (1) to win.
RACE 4
BUSTN FEELZ GOOD (1) has been racing much better than numerical form suggests. Likely to be hard to beat in this race.
MY ULTIMATE LOUIE (6) looked to have ever chance last start when leading at Gatton. Likely to get a similarly favourable trip in this race.
BEYONSKI (8) was good last start hitting the line well once the gap finally appeared.
NIGHT NINJA (4) better than his recent form.
SELECTIONS: BUSTN FEELZ GOOD (1), MY ULTIMATE LOUIE (6), BEYONSKI (8), NIGHT NINJA (4)
SUGGESTED BET: BUSTN FEELZ GOOD (1) to win.
RACE 5
BEEF CITY STARZZZ (1) has gate speed and an ideal draw. Looks hardest to beat.
ROCKTIME (6) likely to secure a soft run on the leaders back.
GOSLING IN FLIGHT (4) first up for new trainer Taleah McMullen scored a strong win at Gatton utilising the sprint lane. Will find this tougher but can go on with it.
TINSEL TIARA (7) won two runs ago before a third last start. Has options in the early stages.
SELECTIONS: BEEF CITY STARZZZ (1), ROCKTIME (6), GOSLING IN FLIGHT (4), TINSEL TIARA (7)
SUGGESTED BET: BEEF CITY STARZZZ (1) to win.
RACE 6
ENZED FLYER (2) is more capable than recent numerical form would suggest. Can turn his form around in this if able to obtain the lead.
TUNGSTEN TERROR (8) has been very competitive in slightly tougher company in recent outings. Can be put into the race.
CROSSED LEGS (9) racing well enough for a race of this nature.
SHEZAMATERIALGIRL (6) could secure a good run in this race on the pegs. Will need luck.
SELECTIONS: ENZED FLYER (2), TUNGSTEN TERROR (8), CROSSED LEGS (9), SHEZAMATERIALGIRL (6)
SUGGESTED BET: ENZED FLYER (2) to win.
RACE 7
FUNNILY ENOUGH (1) hasn’t had gate 1 since January this year where he was able to lead and win. Finished off reasonably last start.
ROCKNROLL DA GAMA (6) well beaten in latest trial. Had over a month a month since that trial so should be fitter.
WESTERN SHOWGIRL (9) has been racing extremely well. Despite facing a very awkward draw she can figure with luck.
SUBTLE CHAY (8) a win and a second placing in last two starts reads well for this race. Will need the speed on to get into it.
SELECTIONS: FUNNILY ENOUGH (1), ROCKNROLL DA GAMA (6), WESTERN SHOWGIRL (9), SUBTLE CHAY (8)
SUGGESTED BET: FUNNILY ENOUGH (1) to win.
RACE 8
DELIGHTFUL RAINBOW (7) worked to the breeze last start and battled on strongly. Looks one of the better chances in an even field.
ANGELIC SHE AINT (1) was a good run into sixth last start working early before racing off the pegs and finishing off moderately.
ONE LAST ROLL (6) not quite racing at his absolute best. But does gain a perfect draw in this race and can bounce back.
LULU LUCIFER (8) was a winner two back when running on strongly. Will need to do similar here to figure.
SELECTIONS: DELIGHTFUL RAINBOW (7), ANGELIC SHE AINT (1), ONE LAST ROLL (6), LULU LUCIFER (8)
SUGGESTED BET: DELIGHTFUL RAINBOW (7) to win.
