Morning lads. Seems to be a distinct lack of mail on here. Too many slips, not enough tips.
I've got a blackbooker running today at Benalla (yuck) in R2 - 11 Hotzel.
Ran a nice trial relatively untouched leading into this and the winner of that trial won handsomely on debut at Ballarat on Sunday. Was $4.80 last night. Into $4. Thinking it might hover around that mark.
Wednesday Sandown R7 - 6 Bold Bourbon. Ran a terrific and tough 3rd in Saturday grade at Mooney Valley last start. Came out of a strong race at Sandown the run prior with Marcolt winning that. Marcolt then ran a lip second in that same Saturday race at MV behind Fighting Arrows. 5th from that race, Liberated Girl, went and pantsed them at Mooney Valley on Friday night. Anyway, Bold Bourbon appears tactically versatile as it can run either on pace or back in the field. Went up at $14. Into $12 and I'll be staggered if it doesn't jump single figures.
Right in front of me. RIGHT IN FRONT OF ME!
