Australia Racing Preview for 7/22/2014
by Grant Davies
Mid-week racing is at Caulfield this week in a nice little change of venue for the punters! They have lined up some nice fields for us to play around with too! So here goes guys (and gals)!
CAULFIELD – AUS A
RACE 4 - THE COVE HOTEL HANDICAP 1440m $35,000(AUS)
If this track can get to slow 6 or better then confident TO BE HONEST will be tough to beat. She was back to her best last time from gate 1 when finding the box seat. The same should happen here. If we need to be looking for swoopers then DANISH WHISKEY becomes top pick. She's come back well and is ready to win. GIRLS ON FILM looks set for a successful prep after her sound return at Sale. She's effective wet or dry. WHITTEN'S BREW and DARE I ASK next best but it may not end there for first four hopes.
SELECTIONS – DANISH WHISKEY / TO BE HONEST / GIRLS ON FILM
RACE 5 - DEADLY DESIGN HANDICAP 1000m $35,000 (AUS)
There looks to be a few chances here in this race. Despite a feeling he'll appreciate more ground very soon, still happy to be tipping CROONER. His 52kg is very appealing in this race combined with a near faultless record. I can see him parking a couple of lengths just off them and being too strong. HARD ROMP has come back well and is sure to give a sight on speed. NEVERENDING VALLEY looks a hope from a nice inside draw. TRICKY GLEN, OUR NKWAZI and TESTANOVA come into it if wide draws are suited.
SELECTIONS – CROONER / HARD ROMP / OUR NKWAZI
RACE 6 - SPORTINGBET BEST TOTE PLUS 5% HANDICAP 1000m $35,000 (AUS)
Deep race this one. THE SECRET is unbeaten at 1000m this prep and she's impressed both times. Forget her run in between. Concede the wins are synthetic form but she has shown enough on turf early doors. CATHERINE LOUISE is a big danger. She impressed at her first start and that form measures up ok into this grade. Forgive JUDICIAL ROCK's last run. She's drawn to tuck away and get the soft run she needs. TATLER BELLE has a light weight chance as does MITZI DEL BRA but the latter has drawn awfully (pattern pending).
SELECTIONS – THE SECRET / CATHERINE LOUISE / TATLER BELLE
