Herald Sun and Racenet racing writer Gilbert Gardiner’s tips for Seymour on Monday.
BEST BETS
R6 No. 5 $5
Rode the speed last start, a line of three around the bend, headed and responded to the challenge under in-form Brad Rawiller. Too good late and could go on with the job here.
R1 No. 16 $6
Not beaten far on debut at Sandown last campaign and then placed third at Pakenham. Jumped out well again for second preparation. Awkwardly drawn.
R2 No. 12 $4.80
Rode the speed on debut at Seymour and placed third, better suited up to 1200m and race experience a major plus.
VALUE BET
R5 No. 10 $7
Doesn’t win out of turn, three from 26, but placed on a further 10 occasions. Won and placed on heavy tracks previously capable of cutting a cheque.
THE JOCKEY
FULMEN FILOU (R1 No. 6 $5), THE STREAKER (R2 No. 16 $41), PALENTINE PRINCESS (R3 No. 10 $23), MOON LIGHTNING (R5 No. 5 $6), ATAEGINA (R6 No. 9 $10), EXCEL AND FLY (R8 No. 10 $8.50) and PARIS AFFAIR (R9 No. 9 $7.50).
