BLUEY’S BEST BETS - 3/11/2020
BLUEY’S BEST
FLEMINGTON RACE 2 – 11:20 AEDT
- JOVIALITY ($2.80)
Has been in top form so far this prep, scoring three victories and a further three placings from just seven starts. Was caught wide last start in this grade after being slowly away but was able to keep grinding away for a tough second. Draws wide again here, but there looks to be a bit of pace up front so she might be able to slot in. In top form and no reason to knock here.
FLEMINGTON RACE 8 – 16:00 AEDT
- HOMESMAN ($4.60)
Homesman was back in form last start, jumping straight to the front and leading all the way to score a comfortable win at Moonee Valley in the Group 2 Crystal Mile. Homesman failures in his past few runs have been at Group 1 level (Cox Plate & Doncaster Mile), so racing back at Listed grade, he should prove more than capable.
- SPACEBOY ($2.45)
Spaceboy scored three consecutive wins to finish off his prep during the Winter and returns here today, looking to make it four in a row. There’s no indication as to why he can’t score another win here. Having two trials in readiness for this first up assignment, he should be ready to go here. Small field engaged, and he should be able to go to the front and control the race. Looks hard to beat first up.
BLUEY’S BEST VALUE
FLEMINGTON RACE 4 – 12:40 AEDT
- YULONG RISING ($10)
This is a wide open staying affair and I’m siding with Yulong Rising, who I think can improve making a sharp jump up in distance. He’s had two runs this prep and has improved in each of them. He hit the line particularly well last start and now looks ready for this. He’s got a win at 2500m and was very good at 3000m at The Valley last prep. Should be right in this.
