Tim O'Connor has done the form for Friday night's meeting at Geelong.
R1 – 6.29pm – WARRAGUL PACING CUP (2ND HEAT) – 2100m
11 – Carramar Olam
12 – Platinum Jive
9 – Wingate Guy
1 – Muselet
R2 – 7pm – HOYTS FOOD PACE – 1609m
11 – Amphijet
13 – Carry On Cornish
6 – Angel Of Anger
8 – Too The Max
R3 – 7.32pm – EVOLUTION LODGE TROT – 1609m
10 – Claudys Hero
8 – Jack Sprat
4 – Kota Bharu
8 – Watts Up Raptor
R4 – 8.02pm – PRESTIGE MODULAR PACE – 1609m
5 – My Ultimate Sassy
9 – Heavenly Brigade
7 – Kyoretsu
10 – Gun For Hire
My Ultimate Sassy trialled well at Geelong recently, beating home top trotter Ollivici in coming from last in a sharp enough final 800m. Showed some good ability before a last-start Ballarat failure and this looks a suitable race. Each-way.
BACK: 5 My Ultimate Sassy – 1 unit (each-way)
R5 – 8.32pm – GREEN SPACE STORAGE TROT – 1609m
6 – Chinski
5 – Exalted Lady
9 – Beach Heaven
3 – Scar
Thought Chinski would find the front here and that’s the place to be at Geelong. Hard to know how the first-uppers in Shezalover and Exalted Lady will go, so happy his way in a race without any stars.
BACK: 6 Chinski – 2 units (win)
R6 – 9.02pm – QUEST GEELONG CENTRAL MAIDEN PACE – 1609m
5 – Highland Brett
6 – Whiskeydrinkingbill
9 – Riddlemethis
1 – Im The Wild One
R7 – 9.30pm – APCO WEVE GOT YOU PACE – 1609m
2 – Captain Maastricht
8 – Dance Affair
5 – Ruebe Starbuck
7 – My Little Bo
I’m banking on Captain Maastricht finding the lead here and from there he should prove very hard to beat. Last time he found the front he boxed on well for third, beaten just 2.5m to Fox Dan, in 1:54.5 at Melton.
BACK: 2 Captain Maastricht – 3 units (win)
R8 – 9.58pm – HARAS DES TROTTEURS MAIDEN TROT – 1609m
4 – One More Move
3 – Buckles For Berry
5 – Exasperation
8 – The Knockabout
Going with One More Move just on top here, but the value looks to be Buckles For Berry and I’ll have a place-heavy each-way bet on him. I think he could punch forward and find the pegs here, and I loved his finale last time at Ballarat when he stormed late to run second to Keayang Francisco.
BACK: 3 Buckles For Berry – 0.5 unit (win)/2.5 unit (place)
QUADDIE
