Sydney racing heads to Canterbury on Easter Monday for a strong 8 race card. Our analyst has selected a Godolphin 4yo ready to peak 3rd up and an emerging O’Shea and Charlton filly to looks to be an emerging stayer as the value play.
Best Selection: R7- Pisanello
There was a lot to like about the way the Godolphin 4yo hit the line 1st up in the Listed McCartern. It was a very slowly run 1100m making it impossible for him to reel in the on-speed runners despite an extremely slick final 600m sectional of 32.36. He was then fair in much stronger Listed company when 3L 7th in the Hoysted at Flemington over an unsuitable 1000m. He looks set to go 3rd up over 1100m.
Value Selection: R6- Jayashree
Happy to have a throw at the stumps at Jayashree at double figure odds. She drops back in grade after finishing 5.5L 11th in the G3 Adrian Knox at Randwick last start. She had 4 consecutive midweek and provincial top 3 finishes prior to that as she worked her way up to these middle distances. The wide gate is a query but she has proven to be versatile with her settling pattern and will have 350m to hopefully press forward and find a position before the first turn. A risk worth taking at $10.
