The track should be perfect at Geelong while Newcastle should be trending towards good ground with some nice weather forecast.
Best Bet
Newcastle 8/3 Aarkus (5:30pm)
Loved the way that Aarkus hit the the line first up from a spell. Everything points to him being better over further and he gets that extra ground – and a perfect barrier draw – here. Look for him to sit on speed and be strong late.
Recommended Price: $2.90
Confidence Level: 4.5/5
More Racing Tips
Geelong 2/12 Street Delight (2:00pm)
Street Delight was well backed on debut at Flemington in October and while he did flop there, his jumpouts in preparation for this have been terrific, including his most recent at Ararat when wide throughout. Happy to play each way at a big price.
Recommended Price: $9.00/3.00
Confidence Level: 3.5/5
Geelong 6/7 Sovereign Gold (4:00pm)
Sovereign Gold showed an explosive turn of foot to score first up at Warrnambool. The exciting thing is that she still looked to do things wrong so when the penny finally drops for her, she can prove more than handy. This looks a winnable race.
Recommended Price: $2.50
Confidence Level: 4.5/5
Newcastle 7/7 Bahama (4:55pm)
William Pike is making the long trip up to Newcastle on Tuesday and this is clearly the pick of them. The Hawkes trained filly does have form around Never Been Kissed and her trials have also been good if you can overlook her slightly disappointing first up run.
Recommended Price: $3.00
Confidence Level: 3.5/5
