SENTrack: Chris Nelson's best bets at Eagle Farm (14/09)

Racing in Brisbane this afternoon is from Eagle Farm, track was posted a soft (5) at scratching time this morning. We’re in for a partly cloudy day with a top temperature in the low to mid-20’s forecast. The first of 9 races get under way at 11.58am local time.

BEST BETS

RACE 2 # 11 DREAM LANTERN

Lightly raced runner with plenty of upside. Unlucky first up at Ipswich before making amends in commanding fashion same track second-up charging clear of her rivals. She can take the step up in class & win again.

RACE 4 # 1 EXTRA MANNERS

Huge Grafton winner two starts back motoring along the fence before absolutely out of luck at Doomben last time out when held up the entire straight, he really did look as though he had plenty to offer. Up he goes to 1800m & the opposition don’t look strong, I’d suggest he will be overhauling them half-way down the straight.

BEST VALUE

RACE 1 # 8 ELECTRIC BRAE

Lightly raced filly trained in Rockhampton who resumed at the Sunshine Coast putting in a big finish over 1300m after being tailed off early. She then went back home & ran well dropping back to an unsuitable 1200m. 1400m around Eagle Farm today is ideal & she’ll carry no weight after the claim. Disappointed there’s only now 2 place dividends however I’m sticking with her.
