GOSFORD PREVIEW AND TIPS
RAIL: True | TRACK: Heavy 8
A tight turning track with a small straight. Favouring runners who will settle up close to the speed and looking for runners to likely peel away from the inside if we are on a wet track.
Best Bets
Mitch Lewis
BACK: 1. Hydrometer (WIN) for 3 units (Rated at $2.10)
HYDROMETER has had 2 runs in his debut prep and has managed to place in both. Think the key for him here today is the race map. He has drawn a low barrier and with good early speed looks likely to take up the lead early and if he gets a soft run out in front could prove hard to reel in late.

Mitch Lewis
LAY: 10. Eraantyva (WIN) for 1 unit (Rated at $3.00)
Taking a small play against ERAANTYVA here based on his short price. He was well supported on debut and has been again here but The risk I feel is his race map, he found himself out the back on debut and thinking if that happens again here he may be in an awkward position late. Just thought if that was the case, the short price was worth taking a risk against.

Betting Strategy
No Bet.
Open maiden race to kick off the meeting. Not super confident in a play in this race so preferring to sit out and have no bet. FLOODGATES may have a race experience edge and maps well but it’s low confidence.
11. Smashing Rosie
8. Declichy Boulevard
5. True Amor
3. Phoenix Power
Betting Strategy
No Bet.
Similar to race one, this maiden comes up quite tricky to figure. SMASHING ROSIE went forwards in her debut run and if she does that again on this track that may be her advantage but again there isn’t a lot of confidence in this race. No bet.
6. Zealously
12. Obscure
3. Justice Warrior
1. Better Breakout
Betting Strategy
No Bet.
ZEALOUSLY resumes here today off the back of a solid trial at Randwick recently. He ran 2nd on debut in his 1st prep and looks a nice type. Feel that he comes up a bit short in this race to back and I’m not keen to lay him based on his talent so prefer to have no bet.

BACK: #13 EVENFLOW (Back) 1 unit rated at $3.50
Small play on the resuming EVENFLOW. He was solid in his 1st prep and has been given more time since then. Lead up trials to resuming here today have been good and he maps to settle more forwards in the run than the fave which could be the advantage.
6. Montgomery
12. Waverley
11. Royal Standard
2. Earth Dance
Betting Strategy
No Bet.
Found this just about the trickiest race of the day. Race map is tough to dissect with a majority of these runners not having a huge amount of early speed. Given a couple of the unknowns, preferring to stay out and have no bet.
4. Edge Of Reward
1. Arale
2. Pandano
3. Whetu
Betting Strategy
No Bet.
Another tricky race in the Quaddie to figure. EDGE OF REWARD looks likely to settle forwards and a performance similar to the last start will see him go very close here but given how open the race is, I’m preferring to have no bet in this.
2. Impulsivity
3. Divine Vicky
4. Flightcrew
6. Cosy Corner
Betting Strategy
BACK: 2. Impulsivity (WIN) for 1 unit (Rated at $5.00)
It’s an open race but thought there was a small amount of value with IMPULSIVITY who drops down in grade today and was a winner 2 starts back also. Drawn down low he may be positive and should settle forwards of midfield in the run. The question mark around him is he is untested in these conditions, but there is enough value to find out exactly
6. Eye Of The Fire
3. Norton Road
4. Undivided
10. Unstopabull
Betting Strategy
No Bet.
Very open race to finish the meeting, think a question mark on the race map depends on how this track is playing. Would be more confident to back in EYE OF THE FIRE if he had a better barrier but depending on lanes by the last race, it may not be terrible. Not much confidence in this race to finish.
Want to learn how to lay bet?
When you place a lay bet, you are betting on something not to happen. Let’s think about the Melbourne Cup again. Remember: there can only be one winner. But what about the others trailing behind them? If you place a lay bet in a “Win” market, you can celebrate if the runner tails off at the back of the field.
