Thursday night best bets & punting strategy at Kilmore (10/10)

By Bronte Nieuwenburg

Bronte Nieuwenburg has outlined her selections and suggested game plan for tonight's nine-race card at Kilmore.

See her best below, courtesy of Harness Racing Victoria.

R1 – 6.04pm – Tab Pace – 2180m

8 – Luna Dream
2 – Bronski Royal
3 – Shallow Beach
1 – Caledonian Terra

Luna Dream is racing consistently recently, her sectional times have been great, and she will have a fence trip here over the middle distance. She will need luck to be in a striking position late, but if she is, she’s a great winning chance.

BACK: 8 Luna Dream – 2 units (win)

R2 – 6.32pm – C & M Build Group 3yo Maiden Pace – 2180m

1 – Into The Harkness
7 – Carly Perez
6 – Fulloffight Nz
12 – Excelzior

We can forgive and forget the run of Into The Harkness last start as she got too keen racing without cover. That won’t happen from barrier one tonight. Prior to that she looked primed and ready to breakthrough with her maiden victory. Noting she has a gear change:

Gear Added: Lugging Pole O/S, Blinkers - Sliding Block Eyes, Spreader - One Legged N/S

Gear Removed: Blinkers - Hood, Spreaders - Guiders

BACK: 1 Into The Harkness – 2 units (win)

R3 – 6.57pm – Mc Security Cranbourne 10000 Pace (Heat) – 2180m

9 – Credulous
3 – Lenard Ess
10 – Can Feel The Fury
8 – Most Triumphant

Credulous has great recent sectional times. Her run in the Vicbred Super Series Final for 4YO Mares two starts back was fantastic. This race seems much better suited for her.

BACK: 9 Credulous – 2 units (win)

R4 – 7.36pm – Happy 50th Birthday Gordon Caddie Pace – 1690m

9 – Nai Harn Bay
6 – Midnight Mojo
11 – Lavada Gold
5 – Francesco

Nai Harn Bay races well every week. He’s a versatile horse with great recent sectional times. He has a good barrier to follow through here and this looks like a very winnable race.

BACK: 9 Nai Harn Bay – 2 units (win)

R5 – 8.13pm – Hip Pocket Workwear Pace – 1690m

4 – Braebeach
10 – Harley Blue
8 – Ozzie Joybell
3 – Somebeachdreamin

R6 – 8.52pm – Jet Roofing Trot – 1690m

4 – Black And Gold
5 – Lady In The Sky
7 – Dels Destiny
9 – Rymes

Black And Gold was impressive when winning two stars back at Melton. She’s an experience trotter who is always there abouts. This looks like a winnable race for her.

BACK: 4 Black And Gold – 2 units (win)

R7 – 9.22pm – Beraldo Coffee Trot – 2180m

1 – Call Me Jack
3 – Mister Blindside
2 – Madame Kelly
