MY AUSTRALIAN NAP RUNS IN RACE 2 AT KEMBLA GRANGE ON THURSDAY!
Race 2 Kembla Grange 4.25 Stroke Of Luck (7/4)
Promising type who created quite a big impression making a winning start at Newcastle despite showing clear signs of inexperience; Bowman sticks and sure to improve so well placed to make it a perfect 2-2.
Great chance for STROKE OF LUCK to go 2-2 here. He trialled well and made a winning start at Newcastle showing a good attitude under pressure. He gives every indication that he will improve from that initial effort and with Hugh Bowman keeping the ride he should be able to remain unbeaten here. Money From The Sky won at Goulburn but then blew out somewhat at Newcastle and again at Canterbury last time. If he can bounce back he might be the danger but hard to assess on current form. Prize Draw might pose a greater threat as she won at Newcastle and then probably did too much too soon when only fourth at Wyong last time. Pavitra arrives in winning form but this has more strength in depth.
NB – Second best tip overnight
MY AUSTRALIAN NEXT BEST RUNS IN RACE 9 AT DUBBO ON THURSDAY!
Race 9 Dubbo 8.30 Sea Princess (7/4)
Tough mare who bounced back from a no show at Morphettville to go close at Ballarat last month; would have a major shout here if building on that again so looks the one to side with against this field.
This doesn’t look the best race so on that basis SEA PRINCESS will be really hard to beat if building on that recent second at Ballarat. She bounced back from a rare poor run at Morphettville and looks back on the up now. This is weak so it will be disappointing if she can’t go close. Zachariah has just the 1 win from 17 starts so while he hasn’t been running badly he surely looks vulnerable from a win point of view? Timerox is a little more unexposed so might be a greater danger but he finished last at Mudgee and was only midfield at Muswellbrook so has enough to prove on recent form. Oakfield Tepee best of the rest but again she is hard to recommend on recent performances.
