Form Analysis: Redcliffe - 17 July

RACE 1

MY ULTIMATE VICTOR (1) lead three runs ago over the 2040 and wasn’t beaten far. Draws ideally and has options from the draw. 

A PERFECT DANCE (4) settled last and ran on powerfully to score in his last start win. Steps up in trip and looks one of the top chances. 

ROCK NIEN (6) surrendered the lead last start and finished in third there. His most recent win came when running on strongly from the back. 

BOSCH (7) is racing poorly, unplaced in his last seventeen starts. He appears a likely improver from the soft trailing draw. 

SELECTIONS: MY ULTIMATE VICTOR (1), A PERFECT DANCE (4), ROCK NIEN (6), BOSCH (7)

SUGGESTED BET: A PERFECT DANCE (4) each way. 

RACE 2 

PRINCE JOY (1) finished in third last start after being the first horse to move up three wide. He has gate speed which gives him options from the draw. 

MONGOLIAN CONQUEROR (7) hasn’t been beaten far in recent efforts, draws to get a soft trip in this race. 

ART ON FIRE (3) no luck last start when held up by the tiring leader before hitting the line strongly late. Appears another race he can be thereabouts in. 

MOUNT HERCULES (4) placed three runs ago at the 2040 before running second in fast time last start over the 1780. 

SELECTIONS: PRINCE JOY (1), MONGOLIAN CONQUEROR (7), ART ON FIRE (3), LORD MEMNOCK (6)

SUGGESTED BET: MONGOLIAN CONQUEROR (7) each way. 

RACE 3

TOBEFAIRTOYOU (1) returns from a break in this race, has gate speed and likely dictates the early map in this race. If she is fit enough she will be hard to beat. 

TEDDY TURPIN (7) won last start in a restricted wins race. Ran good enough time to suggest he’d be competitive in a race like this from a soft draw. 

MAGICOL IDEAL (6) lead and dropped out last start in a quick mile rate. Generally only has a short sprint and is best driven for his high speed. 

ARTISTIC SAINT (9) was able to make strong ground late last start to run into third. Likely to settle closer in the run this time. 

SELECTIONS: TOBEFAIRTOYOU (1), TEDDY TURPIN (7), MAGICOL IDEAL (6), ARTISTIC SAINT (9)

SUGGESTED BET: ARTISTIC SAINT (9) each way. 

RACE 4 

TORQUE IN CONTROL (1) had a big gap between runs prior to last start, she was doing her best work late closing strongly. 

OUR DOLLY (2) sprung a surprise win last start sitting outside the leader and proving too good. Her form prior to that had been poor, if she can repeat that last start effort she will prove hard to beat. 

TREACHEROUS GABBY (5) has been doing her best work late her last two starts. Despite the awkward draw she looks hard to beat. 

SNIP OF BEAUTY (8) winner last start close strongly late to score. She’s racing well, this looks tougher but she can be thereabouts. 

SELECTIONS: TORQUE IN CONTROL (1), OUR DOLLY (2), TREACHEROUS GABBY (5), SNIP OF BEAUTY (8) 

SUGGESTED BET: TORQUE IN CONTROL (1) to win. 

RACE 5

IM BOO (6) hasn’t been beaten far in recent outings racing without a great deal of luck. He’s a bold front running type and will likely look for

HANOVER LECTOR (2) this mare made an error three runs ago and found herself out of the draw. She’s now back in the draw and looks well placed after two good runs closing from the back. 

TAYLOR FOUR (7) finished in 4th last start after racing on the pegs. Likely to secure another soft trip in this race. 

SKYGIRL (5) not beaten far last start by Sheer Artistry who contested the South East Oaks. 

SELECTIONS: IM BOO (6), HANOVER LECTOR (2), TAYLORS FOUR (7), SKYGIRL (5) 

SUGGESTED BET: IM BOO (6) to win. 

RACE 6

SHADYS DELIGHT (8) shuffled back last start, flashed home into second in what was an eye-catching run. Held up the start prior appears to be racing well. 

TORQUE WRITER (1) racing well finishing third last start after doing the work in the race. Her gate speed and general manners could be her undoing in this race drawn gate one. 

TACKAS LAST DANCE (7) will likely be relying on other runners to settle close enough in this race. Made strong ground last start into second from last. 

OUTER CHANGE (5) got back in the run last start and made late ground. She was a winner three runs ago over this trip. 

SELECTIONS: SHADYS DELIGHT (8), TORQUE WRITER (1), TACKAS LAST DANCE (7), OUTER CHANGE (5) 

SUGGESTED BET: SHADYS DELIGHT (8) to win. 

RACE 7

CANDYKANE (9) placed in quick time for this grade last start. A similar effort would see her hard to beat. 

NUCLEAR BLING (4) her last few efforts haven’t quite been up to her best. From a better draw she may be able to get forward in this race. 

CHANCELESS CENTURY (3) lead the one wide line last start and battled on for a close fourth. 

CRIME BOSS (7) was well beaten in a recent trial behind Beach Villa. Draws to get a soft trip. 

SELECTIONS: CANDYKANE (9), NUCLEAR BLING (4), CHANCELESS CENTURY (3), CRIME BOSS (7) 

SUGGESTED BET: CANDYKANE (9) to win. 

RACE 8

PUNTERS JEWEL (1) showed some gate speed last start before electing to take a trail. Couldn’t quite reel in the leader but he appears to be racing well. 

BOAK (4) beaten 10.8 metres last start but was forced to do the work there. Caught the eye closing from off the pace his run prior. 

MY GIRL MANDY (5) check last start at a crucial stage. This race looks easier. 

MAJOR TRALEE (2) is a horse that possesses very good gate speed. Finished off well last start from a back row draw. 

SELECTIONS: PUNTERS JEWEL (1), BOAK (4), MY GIRL MANDY (5), MAJOR TRALEE (2)

SUGGESTED BET: PUNTERS JEWEL (1) to win.

RACE 9

PINKCHAMPAGNE (9) worked hard in the early stages to repel a number of challengers before she was nab right on the line by Ogedie. The awkward draw makes things tricky but she has to be respected off that great last run. 

ALICE RHAYNE BOW (1) had her first start at Redcliffe last time out and disappointed as a short price favourite when leading and finishing third. Returns after almost two months here, looks one of the main hopes. 

BOSTON HARBOUR (8) has placed six runs in a row, closing in on that maiden win. Battled away well last start into third behind Ogedie. 

TRAVELNFEELIN (3) won a trial at Albion Park prior to debuting. Only managed to beat one home on debut but did race in tough conditions. 

SELECTIONS: PINKCHAMPAGNE (9, ALICE RHAHNE BOW (1), BOSTON HARBOUR (8), TRAVELNFEELIN (3)

SUGGESTED BET: PINKCHAMPAGNE (9) to win. 

RACE 10

WHERE THE BOYS ARE (5) is attempting to beat the handicapper in this one win race, having taken out that race on Friday sprinting best to win. Short of any bad luck or bad behaviour she looks the winner. 

MY ULTIMATE COSSIE (6) was able to lead most the way over the 2040 trip just run down late by Teddy Turpin. Faced by an awkward draw in this race but he is racing well. 

HOLLYWOODBOUND (4) finished off well last time out behind Gotta Dream in a race they rated good time.

SCORES (7) is faced by an awkward draw inside the back row. Has shown he does his best racing on the peg line a position he starts from in this race. 

SELECTIONS: WHERE THE BOYS ARE (5), MY ULTIMATE COSSIE (6), HOLLYWOODBOUND (4), SCORES (7)

SUGGESTED BET: SCORES (7) to place.
