RACE SIX
MY MAGIC MERLIN (3) is knocking on the door for a win after finishing runner-up in 3 of his past 4 starts. Last start from gate 6 he faced the breeze outside leader and winner OOZINVILLE which followed a passing lane 2nd behind MAJOR SEASCAPE. He can force the issue here and claim the win.
MONTANA EXPRESS (12) shoots for a hat-trick of victories as he looks for his 1st win at AP. Taking plenty of time to put it all together, he was too strong to break his maiden 2 starts back when tracking home wide out and backed that up with a strong win last start. He is looming large here.
LETS DIG IT (4) went straight to the front from gate 4 last start at Redcliffe to dictate from the front and score a 7m victory as a red figure fav. That followed a tough 3rd and he won’t be far away at his 1st look at AP.
TORQUE FEELS GOOD (1) will strip fitter after a 1st up 3rd saw he banished to two trials for making an error. Trialling in good order for the return, from the ace gate she can get a cosy trip and find the podium.
SELECTIONS: MY MAGIC MERLIN (3), MONTANA EXPRESS (12), LETS DIG IT (4), TORQUE FEELS GOOD (1)
SUGGESTED BET: MY MAGIC MERLIN (3) to win
