Kembla Grange 28th August, Tips and Previews
Best Bet - Race 6
6
Remarque $4.8
Remarque started the $2.8 favourite in the Listed Rosebud (1100m) last start, but was disappointed for a run at the top of straight.
The three-year-old colt by Snitzel was bolting at the top of the straight after being very well backed in the betting.
Had he a gained a clear passage and not required to check off heels the around the 200-metre mark, he would have finished much closer and may have even beaten Paulele.
Surprising to see that the Godolphin runner comes up half the price in this race considering the luckless run our seleciton had against him last start.
Next Best - Race 9
6
Andermatt $3.9
Goes like a rocket when he races fresh and he faces that set up in this race.
The Godolphin gelding resumes off a nice winning trial at Hawkesbury on 23rd August, which will have him cherry ripe for this 1000-metre dash.
James Cummings seems to have purposely trialled him up the week he is set to run in order to keep his residual fitness intact.
The go-to senior rider for the stable has been booked with James McDonald piloting this sprinter around the quirky Kembla Grange course.
Should be able to the take the trailing run midfield with cover and explode with his sprint late.
Best Roughie - Race 7
3
Quick Thinker $17/$4.8
Putting a line through Quick Thinker’s effort at Hawkesbury in the Rowley Mile when he was thrashed by 20 lengths.
He clearly went amiss in the race and that is not a true representation of his form line.
Prior to that failure, he had a handful of nice trials against speedy horses who he was able to keep up with.
With the predicted rain and wet weather about, expect a sharp improvement with his wet track credentials a big feature in his form guide.
Three starts on a heavy surface for two wins a placing highlights his ability to handle the conditions.
