    STU VALENTINE FOR BLOODSTOCK INSURANCE UP TO NR75 HEAT 1 1780m

    Race details

    RACE 1 

    BUDDY PERFECT (2) sat without cover last time out at Albion Park outside of Bite The Ear Mike and battled on reasonably there for eighth. He draws well in this race and loves to race on the pegs. He can lead and should be hard to run down. 

     

    ULTIMATE BIRD (6) trialled up well recently at Albion Park when leading and dominating a recent trial over higher assessed Manila Playboy. He may be shuffled back from the wide draw and if the race is run to suit he should be running on late. 

     

    GREAT ACHIEVER (3) was a good winner at this track three starts ago securing a good run off the speed and running over the top late He can secure a similar type of run in this race and should be running on again. 

     

    ALTA SENSATION (4) was a terrific winner recently at this track copping plenty of pressure leading before kicking nicely to beat Dolly Rocket. He draws a touch awkwardly this time and may need to do some work at some stage.

     

    SELECTIONS: BUDDY PERFECT (2), ULTIMATE BIRD (6), GREAT ACHIEVER (3), ALTA SENSATION (4)

    SUGGESTED BET:  BUDDY PERFECT (2) to win.

    RACE 2 

    MY ULTIMATE VICTOR (3) was forced to do the work outside the leader last time out and wasn’t beat far in fourth behind Jeffcoate. He is likely to get a good run from a good front row draw and can figure in the finish again. 

     

    ROCK HAMMER (9) ran on strongly last time out into third behind Jeffcoate and Maywyn Troubadour at Albion Park. He is likely to be suited doing no work in a race which could generate a strong tempo early. 

     

    ROLL TO THE TOP (2) seems to be best suited in races when sat up and saved for one run which should see her suited from a good draw in this race. She got back in the run last time out and couldn’t get into the race which became a dash home and was taken out by Mach Asassin. 

     

    GRIGORA (1) has gate speed and should get a good run from the favourable draw. He got back last time out and was held up for clear running at a crucial stage in a race taken out by Francs For Coming. 

     

    SELECTIONS: MY ULTIMATE VICTOR (3), ROCK HAMMER (9), ROLL TO THE TOP (2), GRIGORA (1)

    SUGGESTED BET: MY ULTIMATE VICTOR (3) to win.

    RACE 3

    FOXFIRE EASTON (9) faces a big 30 metre handicap in this race which does look tough on paper but he appears to have a class edge on his rivals. He was a good winner two starts ago running over the top to beat Denver Colorado at this track. 

     

    THE CASUAL GOOSE (1) has a good record from the stand start and was able to win a heat of this series last year when leading all the way. If he can step to the lead he should give them something to catch again.

     

    ROLLING BONUS (8) was held up at a crucial stage last time out before hitting the line nicely to get into the placings behind Lulu Lucifer at this track. He faces a 20 metres handicap in this race but should still run well in this race.

     

    MISS HATTIE (2) was running on late last time out into seventh in a race taken out by Oyster Stride. She should settle close in this race and appears well handicapped. 

     

    SELECTIONS: FOXFIRE EASTON (9), THE CASUAL GOOSE (1), ROLLING BONUS (8), MISS HATTIE (2)

    SUGGESTED BET: THE CASUAL GOOSE (1) to win.

    RACE 4 

    TERRAGONG SWINGER (4) has working into some good form in recent outings. He ran well last time out when securing a good run and finishing it off well into second behind Francs For Coming. He should settle close and can be running on late. 

     

    PLANET DOWNS (7) led last time out over the 2138 at Albion Park and was run down late by Monopollie. He draws awkwardly inside the back row this time but with luck in running looks one of the better hopes in this race. 

     

    THE TIGER ARMY (6) appears to be well graded in this race but does face a poor draw. Sat without cover last time out and battled on nicely there for fourth behind Francs For Coming. He may be left to do the work but should be suited in this field. 

     

    MAYWYNS ACE (2) was shuffled back last time out and couldn’t get into the race there which was taken out by Monopollie. He should settle closer this time and comes into this race third up from a spell. 

     

    SELECTIONS: TERRAGONG SWINGER (4), PLANET DOWNS (7), THE TIGER ARMY (6), MAYWYNS ACE (2)

    SUGGESTED BET: TERRAGONG SWINGER (4) to win.

    RACE 5

    GETAGRIP (10) took on a much stronger race than this one last time out and wasn’t beaten far in ninth behind Borella. He is likely to appreciate the drop back in grade but does face a 30 metre handicap which could make things tricky for him. 

     

    BONNIES CAM (8) got back in the run last time out and was making up some late ground in a race taken out by Jeffcoate. He comes into this race fourth up from a spell and should be nearing peak fitness. He is also likely to appreciate the slight handicap advantage on some of his key rivals in this race. 

     

    THE HARRIS HAWK (9) got back in the run last time out and was making up late ground behind Favreau who rated good time for the grade there. He has a 20 metre handicap to overcome in this race but should be running on late.

     

    SPORTY AZZ (7) secured a good run on the pegs last time out and was running on late into fourth behind just 1.6 metres by the winner Oyster Stride. He appears well handicapped in this race and should run well again. 

     

    SELECTIONS: GETAGRIP (4), BONNIES CAM (8), THE HARRIS HAWK (9), SPORTY AZZ (7)

    SUGGESTED BET: GETAGRIP (4) to win.

    RACE 6 

    FLYING DRAGON (6) trialled up really nicely when first landing in QLD winning by a big margin there before having time off and returning with another good trial running second to Stormtide which looks good form for a race of this nature. He should be hard to beat. 

     

    WICKED BERRIES (8) took on a stronger race last time out at Albion Park when finishing seventh behind Eternal Bliss. She should get a good run through in this race and can settle close enough in the urn. She should be running on late. 

     

    PERFECT LOU (10) led last time out and was just run down late by Maywyn Valentino who has been good in recent outings. He draws less favourably in this race but soes appear to find a race with a touch less depth.

     

    MIGHTY IDEAL (5) ran a good second three starts ago behind Number One Ranger at Albion Park. He draws awkwardly in this race and may need luck at some stage to get into the race. 

     

    SELECTIONS: FLYING DRAGON (6), WICKED BERRIES (8), PERFECT LOU (10), MIGHTY IDEAL (5)

    SUGGESTED BET: FLYING DRAGON (6) to win.

    RACE 7

    HES ALL TORQUE (9) secured a good run behind Greatgreat Boulder last time out and was able to sprint well to pick him up late and score rating fast time. He faces a big handicap of 40 metres in this race but does seemingly find what looks to be the weakest heat of this series.

     

    ROSIES BOY (8) got a long way back last time out at Albion park and was running on well late there into seventh behind Racana. He looks reasonably well handicapped off 20 metres in this race and should run well.  

     

    THREE CHORD RIFF (5) secured a good run last time out and was running on well late into second behind Jay Tee Tyron. She stepped away well enough in her standing start prior at Albion Park and should run well off the front in this race. 

     

    ROCKNROLL DA GAMA (2) appears well handicapped in this race starting off the front. He ran well last time out closing off strongly late when finishing second to Ideal Tiger. 

     

    SELECTIONS: HES ALL TORQUE (9), ROSIES BOY (8), THREE CHORD RIFF (5), ROCKNROLL DA GAMA (2)

    RACE 8

    CAPTAIN OH CAPTAIN (1) should have the speed to drive through and lead in the early stages of this race. He was running on well last time out at this track into fourth behind La bomba who was able to lead all the way there. 

     

    MILLIONDOLLAR KISS (9) was left without cover last time out and battled on strongly late for a close up third. She should be able to work around to race up on speed again and should thereabouts again. 

     

    JILLIBY PANDA (7) seems to be best suited when driven quietly early with a helmet to follow which could see him well suited in this race drawn the inside of the back row. He loomed up strongly last time out but just couldn’t quite finish it off when running fifth behind Three Machs. 

     

    PLAYFUL MISS (3) secured a good run on the pegs last time out and was running on well late behind Oyster Stride. She should get a good run close to the speed in this race and can be running on late. 

     

    SELECTIONS: CAPTAIN OH CAPTAIN (1), MILLIONDOLLAR KISS (9), JILLIBY PANDA (7), PLAYFUL MISS (3)

    SUGGESTED BET: JILLIBY PANDA (7) each way.

    RACE 9

    OUR SWEET JESS (9) will start this race off a 30 metre handicap and will need to begin safely to give herself every chance. She has been taking on strongly company including last start when not beaten far by Pretty Little Liar finishing sixth. 

     

    HES REGAL (7) appeared very unlucky last start when being badly held up for a clear run late last start in a race taken out by Francs For Coming. If he can begin well and settle close in the run he should be thereabouts in this race. 

     

    ROCKTIME (8) got back last start and was running on late in a race taken out by Shes In Line in good time for the grade. He looks one of the class runners in this race and can look to overcome the 20 metre handicap. 

     

    GHOST TRAIN (4) comes into this race first up from a spell which does appear a significant query. He was able to take out a heat of this series last year when leading and winning off the front handicap. 

     

    SELECTIONS: OUR SWEET JESS (9), HES REGAL (7), ROCKTIME (8), GHOST TRAIN (4)

    SUGGESTED BET: OUR SWEET JESS (9) to win.

    RACE 10

    DANCINWITHPLEASURE (2) ran on nicely last time out into fourth behind Aragorn. He has good gate speed and may be able to work to the front in this race and should be hard to beat from there. 

     

    CAPTAINS RUN (8) secured a good run last time out and was running on well into second behind Aesthete. He should get a good run through early in this race and can be running on late.

    ADORE CINDY (1) was able to secure a good run on the pegs last time out and ran into third there behind Tactique at this track. She should secure a good run again and is likely to have derived benefit from her latest two outings.
