A few horses that look over the odds have popped up at the gallops for Wednesday the 17th of May. Read on for our Wednesday Winners!
Gold Coast Best Bet
Race 10 #4 Courtza King
Drawn wide but with the rail out just 3.5m and the fact the track has had plenty of racing lately means that it should play fair and if anything favour the outside by the last race on the card. Courtza needs to be ridden cold and can be a frustrating horse to follow but this assignment looks perfect for him. $4.60 looks a very fair price but given his pattern, there might be some keen to lay him, we suggest locking in half of that $4.60 now and having the other half of your stake at best tote.
Sale Best Bet
Race 8 #2 Sir Sagamore
Sir Sagamore looks your stereotypical fresh sprinter. Both of his wins have come first-up and he maps to sit midfield with cover on a genuine tempo here and should prove too good for them late. He gets his preferred track conditions, preferred race shape and has a class advantage. Looks very well placed and the $4.80 is well worth a play on a horse we expect to shorten.
Good luck and good punting,
