The day’s feature sees (4) Samizdat come up as favourite after winning the Belmont Newmarket first up. A couple of queries today, being the firm track and his second up record. I also think he gets a negative jockey change. I’ll be opposing him but no surprise to see him win again as the stable are going well.

(2) Too Close The Sun gets a strange set up, dropping from 1400m to 1300m second up. He’s never won below 1700m so it’s a big query, however he was sound first up with 62kg and now gets Pike on second up.

(6) Tellem We’re Comin was enormous on stable debut for Dan Morton, sitting three-wide the trip and going down late to Samizdat in the Newmarket. Firm ground a plus for him and his second up record is good. With a better run in transit today, he’ll be hard to beat.

Tip: (2) Too Close The Sun $3.00 TAB

Also Backing: (6) Tellem We're Comin $4.60 TAB

Betting Strategy: 1 unit WIN Too Close The Sun, 0.5 units WIN Tellem We're Comin

This is a good race with a few decent chances but I’m just going to bank on (5) Kaptain Kaos being the best horse in the race. He won very impressively first up, coming from near last to swoop home down the outside. He was first up without a trial that day and was ridden by an apprentice, so he should only improve off that. Chris Parnham goes back aboard today. Think he’s very progressive and can continue winning here.

(1) Moschard drops in grade and gets Pike booked, (9) Reign Of Fire and (2) Cliffs Of Comfort also good chances.

Tip: (5) Kaptain Kaos $2.35 Sportsbet

Betting Strategy: 2 units WIN Kaptain Kaos

A trip to Hong Kong quickly had Tim hooked to the racing caper, maintaining the best place anywhere in the world on a Wednesday night is Happy Valley. He holds a strong interest in the Hong Kong form, along with the metropolitan racing in Sydney and Melbourne. He’s a fan of dry tracks, Zac Purton and takes particular interest in identifying patterns in the form. Tim wears many hats, juggling the roles of form analyst, jockey manager and racehorse owner.
