Bluey’s Best Bets – Lightning Stakes Day 16/2/2019
Flemington - Race 2 2000m 13:10 AEDT
SCHABAU ($1.90)
Lightly raced German import who scored a brilliant win first up at 2000m last start at Flemington. Not usually one for overseas imports first up at distance but he was impressive first up and looks to have some strong form overseas including two 7L victories. Up in class here but should improve enough to take care of this field.
Randwick - Race 5 1200m 15:15 AEDT
BRUTAL ($1.80)
Resumes here for the Hawkes stable and will be looking to continue his impressive unbeaten record. Tipped here last week but was scratched due to a wet track. Looks a future star in the making and the Hawkes stable will want to ensure he remains unbeaten. Has trialled well leading into this race.
Randwick - Race 7 1200m 16:30 AEDT
MISS FABULASS ($2.70)
Another one who resumes here and looking to kick off her campaign with a win. Boasts an impressive resumé including a Group 2 win last prep over the talented Fiesta who won last week. Has trialled nicely and looks to be in for a big prep.
Bluey’s Best Value
Flemington - Race 9 1400m 17:30 AEDT
FLOW ($5.50)
Third up here after a solid start to his prep which includes a 2nd to the infamous Tom Melbourne last start at Randwick. Flow had to work in that race and was just run down late; they ran quick time also. Expect him to be peaking here and McDonald on board is a plus. Should give you a good sight.
