David Gately is all set for another big weekend of racing across Sydney and Melbourne, revealing his two best plays of the day.
All ratings for MOONEE VALLEY are for SOFT track. Rail is back TRUE.
We have had two meetings back since March and the rail has been out 3m and 5m so there is this protected ground inside.
Doubt it will be any disadvantage using those inside lanes, especially early on.
If we get rain on Raceday maybe it chops out a little but watch and monitor if possible.
In Sydney it is RANDWICK and ratings are for SOFT track there also. Rail is 7m.
Was 3m here last meeting and they were off the inside rail.
The most recent meeting with similar rail dimensions was back on July 9th (9m) and the inside lanes held up well for the most part, then chopped out a bit very late.
David Gately Best Bets & Expert Picks
The Valley Race 8 #5 Uncle Bryn $2.50
A terrific trial before a good return in G2 Lawrence when out of his ratings at WFA.
His sectionals home were very similar to Mr Brightside (he ran well) and fitter to 1600m and back to Hcp with 54kg looks keys.
Keen, runs well.
Randwick Race 6 #6 In Secret $3.20
Well-backed fresh but just didn’t get the room she needed at the most vital stage before hitting line hard (but winner had pinched it).
Now draws widest with rail out 7m so will touch of luck.
Still, happily on-top.
