Daily Mail: ‘Good’ ready to go at The Meadows

[Wandering Eyes]

Good To Go – victorious in the Runway Final during the Group 3 Launching Pad series – faces the promising Exalted in a Grade 5 525m heat at The Meadows this afternoon.

G2 Shepparton Cup finalist Dynamic Prince lines up against Zipping Crusader – top-three in five of his last starts – in a Mixed 4/5 525m race.

G3 winner Jazz Opera v Spanish Miss v G2 finalist Ultimate Avenger, G3 finalist Wedding Or Baby v Alfie Alligator v Greysynd Shock and Courteous Reiko v G3 finalist Dusty Lyn should all be intriguing clashes.

G2 Warrnambool Cup finalists Astro Boy and Jerwood Bale face the in-form Ferocious Rust in a Mixed 4/5 450m event at Ballarat tonight, while Manila Dusk v Nicmac Miss and Freya Bale v Smokin’ Charlie are expected to be top duels.

THE WATCHDOG’S $10 INVESTMENT
Wednesday 11 May

 $3 Place – TASTE THE GOLD

Must Watch Race

Grade 5 Heat

The Meadows Race 4
Box 2 525m 1:05pm

TAB fixed odds: $2.10 Place (Top two finish required)

The Watchdog says : TASTE THE GOLD (2) meets a smart line-up today, but he has a handy motor and from the draw, he should be able to hold the early lead. He was gutsy in defeat at Sandown Park last time and a similar performance today can see him finish in the top two.

‘Must Watch Race’ Preview :

Great race for a midweeker and we see the exciting EXALTED (4) return to the track after six weeks off. He comes into this having won three-of-four to date in blistering fashion and he is expected to fire fresh. If he can step on terms, he should be able to enter the turn in a prominent spot and he can carve out serious time. GOOD TO GO (8) has won two-of-three here and he has gone to another level in recent months. The box draw is a slight concern, but there isn’t a whole lot of early speed, so he should be able to muster into a forward position once balanced and he will be very strong in the run home. TASTE THE GOLD (2) has been racing well in strong company of late and he has the speed to hold the lead at the bend and is capable of causing an upset.

The Watchdog’s selections: 8 – 4 – 2 – 6

$4 Win – COURTEOUS REIKO
The Meadows Race 11 Box 2 525m 3:32pm
TAB fixed odds: $2.20 Win
Form https://watchdog.grv.org.au/meeting/666538564/race/11

The Watchdog says : She has scored some scintillating wins at Bendigo and Sale of late and she appears to be a serious prospect. With the empty draw inside, she should be able to settle in the top two or three as they head to the back, and she will be very strong in the run home. With the ability to run sub 29.90sec, they will have a hard time holding her out.

The Watchdog says : COURTEOUS REIKO (2) will appreciate the empty draw and she will take a power of beating today. LEKTRA RHINO (1) is a bold front-running type and he is suited to this distance range. From the inside draw, he should hold the top through the bend, and he may prove too classy in the run home.
