Harness analyst best tips:
Best Bet: R4 Captain Kobe
Best Value: R3 The Enigma
Race 1
Koko Kaboom (5) Back in handicaps but small field helps. Should run top three with manners
Trippy Tyron (4) Should begin quickly. Races well here and has to be respected in this field
Kink (3) Manners are suspect but he can trot well when underway. One for longer odds in this
Race 2
Million Dollar Chic (3) Easier here and should give a good account from strike rate stable. Needed
The Night Fox (1) Has early speed to be one of the leaders and will be fitter. One for longer odds
Dream On Lou (4) Improver from her last start and weaker field here. Top three chance in this
Race 3
The Enigma (11) Looked ok winning a recent trial and draw the only concern. Good run expected
Run Blaze Run (1) Ok last start and a threat to the favourites with a good run in transit. Include
Rhaegal (9) Ok effort last start and can sneak into the top three with luck in transit. EW claims

Captain Kobe (7) Good enough to be winning this with the right trip. One of the better chances
