(9) Little Thunder can run a good race each way here. He ran OK first up and he typically improves sharply second up. He has a good record on the dirt, the wide draw isn’t that much of a concern on the all-weather track and Karis Teetan has had a hot start to the season.

Tip: (9) Little Thunder $5.50/$2.10 Sportsbet

Betting Strategy: 0.5 units E/W Little Thunder

Something small on (2) Big Brook each way here for the imperious combination of Casper Fownes and Joao Moreira. This horse has his first start of the season and drops into Class 4 for the first time. This combo had a winner with a similar set up last weekend at double figure odds and it does catch the eye that Joao goes on first up despite the poor form this horse has shown.

Tip: (2) Big Brook $26/$6 Bet365

Betting Strategy: 0.25 units E/W Big Brook

Keen to be with (8) Spontaneous here. He won three of his first four runs last preparation before failing last time we saw him. That was when Zac Purton was indisposed from the meeting and Borges took the ride. I thought the ride was very ordinary and getting Zac back on today is obviously a big plus. He chooses to ride this horse over Speedy Mouse, who he had been riding last season, so that’s a positive lead. Draws well, first go on the dirt is some query but expecting he runs a really good race here.

Tip: (8) Spontaneous $5.00 Sportsbet

Betting Strategy: 1 unit WIN Spontaneous

(2) Ima Single Man really hit his straps at the back end of last season and I’m excited to see him return today. He might well need 1400m eventually but he was finishing off super over 1200m in his past three runs. Carrying 60.5kg at the top of Class 3 isn’t easy but I think he can progress into better races and if he’s close enough at the turn today, he should be finishing hard.

(3) Lockheed wasn’t that far behind him in his last run last season and gets Purton booked today. Tricky barrier but he was the last rider to win on him. $16 still available.

Tip: (2) Ima Single Man $3.40 TopSport

Value: (3) Lockheed $16 Bet365

Betting Strategy: 1 unit WIN Ima Single Man, 0.25 units WIN Lockheed

(5) My Sugar is a horse I’ve got plenty of time for and provided they’ve got enough work into him fresh since February, I think he can be a big player here. Draws to potentially find the front and should be hard to run down from there.

(4) Super Winner may well sit outside My Sugar in the run and he has a terrific record over this track and distance, with four wins and four placings from nine starts. Moreira on and definite claims at $7.50.

Tip: (5) My Sugar $4.60 Bet365

Also Backing: (4) Super Winner $7.50 Bet365

Betting Strategy: 1 unit WIN My Sugar, 0.5 units WIN Super Winner

Tim Geers

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.
