Best Of The Best : Our 3 Best Bets For Saturday 19th September

5 years ago - Sportingbase

This week’s Randwick meeting is full of top quality runners from top to bottom. The Group 1 George Main Stakes headlines the day and after a close look at the form, it looks to be a day where supporting the class runners should pay dividends.

Results Last 30 Days: -2.2 Units

Race 1 – Athiri

Those that followed us two weeks ago would be well aware that Arthiri saw no daylight in the straight in her last run over 1100m at this track. This is a step up in class going into a BM88 against the boys but she has been compensated with 52kg.

Rachel King takes the ride and she has had a great record on lightweight rides for the Cummings stable of late. Expecting her to settle a little better than midfield and to unleash a big run down the middle of the track.

Tip: Athiri 2 units win @ $4

Race 5 – Probabeel

This Kiwi mare was sensational last start after only getting out at the 100m mark and flashing home to finish a close second to Roheryn, who she meets 1.5kg better at the weights this time.

The 1400m will suit the Savabeel mare and punters lined up to grab the $4.40 earlier in the week but it’s definitely not too late.

Tip: Probabeel 3 units win @ $2.8

Race 6 – Verry Elleegant

The Waller trained Verry Elleegant was sensational winning the G1 Winx Stakes last start. There’s no question that she is the class runner of the field with the genuine query being the lack of speed in the race on paper. I believe that Kolding will again press forward from the wide barrier and Dreamforce should kick up from the inside to enforce a decent tempo.

J-Mac should be able to position the mare around midfield in a position where she can get to the outside and show her class in the finish. The bet of the day.
