Mitch Ebeyer's Thursday Focus and best bets at Albion Park (22/08)
By Mitch Ebeyer
If the weeks aren’t getting faster and faster I’ll give it away. It feels as though I’m writing this article every 3rd day not every 7th. Anyway enough dribble. A 10 race card awaits us with nine of those races being 520m with one 710m FREE FOR ALL. The first race steps at 6:54pm with the last scheduled for 10:08pm. Winners to be found so let’s find them.
BEST BETS
R5 N8 RED DIRT ROAD
Winning form is good form and has won 5 on the bounce now, two of the past three in sub 42 seconds. Goes super off the wide draws only missing a place once from boxes 6-8 and begins clean. Expect him to lead with no speed inside besides the 7, the main danger is the 4. Hard to beat again.
R9 N1 DAYSEA’S CHIEF
Best bet of the night and not hard to see why. Drawn superb where he holds a great record from inside boxes, is one win and one minor from two starts off the cherry and good form on boxes 2 & 3 also. Three and four runs back was enormous off poor draws so tonight will be the real tester to see how good he’s going. Keen!
VALUE BETS
R7 N2 SAMURAI MIND
A favourite of mine who is drawn ideal. Has 7 wins and 1 minor placings from 15 starts off box two and runs out a very strong 520m. Placed in three of his last five starts including an impressive win in Darwin. Maps really well with a pacey wide runner in 3 who can hold up the favourite and decent beginner who likes the fence in box 1. Expect a bold showing!
