Sunday racing in Victoria at Sale with the eight-race card to be conducted on a soft (5) track with the rail true and the penetrometer 5.59.
BEST BET
ARIA ELECTRA (Race 7 No. 7 – $4)
Becoming a bit costly with five successive placings and in the market on most occasions. Her last win was at Sale and even though she’s had a lengthy preparation should be primed for this, especially from gate one with Jye McNeil in the saddle.
NEXT BEST
TRIAL BY PRESS (Race 8 No. 8 – $4.60)
Lightly-raced mare winner one (dead-heat) from four and last start far from disgraced when third behind Masterful at Cranbourne. That horse then went down narrowly at the same track Friday. Prior to that close up at The Valley when should have finished closer.
HYBRID MOMENTS (Race 5 No. 5 – $4.80)
Only had the one start when impressive winning at Swan Hill when she was held up and hit the line strongly when clear, no doubt she should have won by further. Capable of handling the step up in grade.
BEST VALUE
MAGIC DRUM (Race 6 No. 2 – $6)
Struck form at third run back from a spell when strong through the line winning similar class this track and the extra 200m should suit on that win. Gets the 3kg claim so only up a kilo.
JOCKEY TO FOLLOW – JYE MCNEIL
WILLMOTT (Race 1 No. 7 – $5.50), ZWASP (Race 3 No. 8 – $13), OUR MALYSHKA (Race 4 No. 13 – $9), HYBRID MOMENTS (Race 5 No. 5 – $4.80), ARIA ELECTRA (Race 7 No. 7 – $4)
