Tony’s shortlist

Fat Tony’s AI picks

1

1. Performer

Draws the paint, loves the Heavy10 and has run two cracking seconds—Tony says catch him if you can.

2

8. One Bold Floozie

Classy mare with the handy gate and 2.5kg pull; fresh legs make her the main danger, pal.

3

2. Facilitate

Nearly pinched it over 1200m here last time; 1400m suits, though the wide alley is the sting.

4

7. Unbounded

Lightly weighted local mare has proper upside and prior 1400m form here—include the sheila.

5

9. Marge

Resuming fourth was honest on the bog and the 4kg claim is a lovely little earner, mate.

Race context

Race preview

PERFORMER (1) won a couple of trials prior to finishing runner-up in each of his starts to date, including a half length defeat here 7 weeks ago in a tougher field than this. He maps to do no work early on from the pole position, and he is set to go one better. ONE BOLD FLOOZIE (8) made progress and showed promise in her initial prep before having a spell. She is bred to improve with time, and 1400m fresh up is the ideal starting point for her. Hard to beat. FACILITATE (2) was runner-up as the favourite here 3 weeks ago over 1200m, and his first win is not far away. Follow your money. UNBOUNDED (7) was good enough to be placed in the Oaks Prelude at New Plymouth while still a maiden, and though things did not go her way after that, she will still be hard to beat fresh up. Check the market. MARGE (9) was close up when resuming at Hawera, and she has top 4 claims again.
