BLUEY’S BEST BETS - 24/04/2020
BLUEY’S BEST
- KIKU ($2.50)
Kiku has been in outstanding form so far this prep, scoring three wins from just three starts. First up, he scored by 2L at BM68 level but has since been able to rise through the grades, winning his most recent race at Group 3 level. Racing at Group 3 level here again and certainly looks the one to beat. No reason to jump off.
- BROOKSPIRE ($2.90)
Brookspire looks to be a talented horse in the making, but she still has a lot to learn. In each of her four races to date, she’s either began slowly, laid in or struck interference. Last start, she was restrained to the tail and battled away in the straight to finish 1.9L away. She’s been given a freshen since and I’m tipping that might do the trick. With even luck, she should be winning this.
- WINSUM ($3.10)
Winsum was super impressive two starts back at Cranbourne, sitting fourth and making a move leading into the straight, scoring by 2.5L over second and 5L over third place. Last start, he was up in class and finished just over a length away. If he brings his Cranbourne form to this, he should be winning.
BLUEY’S BEST VALUE
- ARCHEDEMUS ($14)
Archedemus was solid first up, finishing just a length behind 2nd (Yao Dash lapped them) in the Group 3 Doncaster Prelude. He sat on the outside of Yao Dash there and just faded late. At his best, he can perform to a high standard - last prep, he scored an unlikely win in The Gong, defeating Dawn Passage and Think It Over. Should get an easy run on the speed here and could prove tough to run down.
