Geelong Previews For 3 Races On Friday

Another Geelong on the Synthetic track is upon us on Friday and as usual I have identified 3 races worth potentially betting into. below are the assessed markets taking in the major seen chances along with detailed assessments of each of the major elects.

Geelong Friday betting information for Race 6,7,8 as follows.


Geelong R8
No5 Al Omghe 12.20
No8 Ebony Rock 9.50
No9 Shelters 4.20
No10 Vacqueyras 5.90


Geelong R8 No9 Shelters - Snowden trained Lonhro 4yo mare and lightly raced having only faced the starter 4 times, totally forget last start effort, 2 back handy Sandown win over Volando who franked the form running 2nd and 1st next 2 starts in town, likely near perfect trip from inside gate and only needs luck in the stretch to win, clearly good scope for more especially being out of the well related Danehill mare Hut, ticks all of the right boxes.

Geelong R7
No2 Swift Sands 10.50
No3 Elite Ebony 9.50
No5 Miss Parma 11.60
No6 Kapcher 15.80
No7 North East 7.40
No13 Noble Twostep 3.80

Geelong R7 No13 Noble Twostep - fairly keen on the Rick Hore Lacy trained Noble Twostep here, good speed pedigree by Stratum out of a Second Empire mare and was a $100K Inglis Premier graduate, good scope for further improvement making a sharp drop in class on back of being beaten only 1.7l into 7th at Caulfield last start for a $70K purse, drawn perfectly in the 6 alley and we expect it to race closer to the pace as it did when 1st up at Sandown 3 back and also when winning at Cranbourne in January, clearly above the level required to win here, we have it rated as a 3.80 chance, next best is North East rated as a 7.40 chance. Noble Twostep clear on top, the one to beat.

Geelong R6
No2 Bold Dazzler 6.30
No3 Eight Ways 8.80
No5 King's Dream 3.65
No8 Speeler 5.50
No9 Bioko 8.80


Geelong R6 No5 King's Dream - hard to go past the chances of the impressive last start winning Elvestroem 4yo King's Dream, putting together a decent record now espcecially over this trip (5starts, 2wins, 3paces), won going away at Morphettville last start on the back of finishing 3rd to Speeler (also engaged here) the start prior at Seymour, definitely has nit a new level since that 3rd to Speeler and should turn the tables on that rival here if it holds the Morphettville level which it should do, we've got it rated as 3.60 market leader with next best Speeler at 5.50, Bold Dazzler on the 3rd line at 6.30, if they bet 11/4 or better about King's Dream it becomes a backable commodity.

Good luck and happy punting.
