THOROUGHBREDS
Morphettville: Race 2; #1 Grinzinger Love
LAY: 1. Grinzinger Love (WIN) for 2 units (Rated at: $3.50)
GRINZINGER LOVE brings in strong form lines from her debut run, and is the horse to beat, but I feel at her short price she is a slight risk from a wide barrier with speed drawn beneath her. If she finds an awkward spot in the run, she may need luck late.
Rosehill: Race 6; #5 KIng Colorado
LAY (WIN) #5 King Colorado for 0.5 units (Rated at: $9.00)
I thought he was poor last start and I would've liked to have seen him perform better for the step up to 2000m. I am surprised he is single figures in early markets.
Moonee Valley: Race 10; #2 Grand Impact
LAY: 2. Grand Impact (WIN) for 2 unit(s) (Rated at: $3.9)
Laying the best horse in the race usually isn't the smartest idea and I do have plenty of respect for Price/Kent horses first-up, however laying favourites in Metro Melbourne off a 500+ day spell just can't be a way to lose money, the trials were good etc, however on the ratings he wouldn't want to be too far off his peak stuff to price him inside $3.
