Darwin tips and results

Our price $4.50 · SP $15.00 · Deborah Barton

Crazy Brave is the strongest form pick coming off a dominant win at the track over 1200m on May 9. The low weight, improving trend, and fitness suggest he can repeat, overcoming a wider gate with early speed.

Our price $5.50 · SP $7.00 · Ianish Luximon

Our Couver has a clear class edge after racing in higher grades at Pioneer Park. He maps ideally from barrier 2 in a slow tempo, with jockey Ianish Luximon in flying form. While he hasn't won at Fannie Bay yet, his recent 3rd in a Bench. 76 suggests he's ready to return to the winner's circle. The slight risk is his lack of local wins, but the class drop compensates.

Hotim English is a track specialist who has won over this track and distance previously. He is fresh after a 64-day spell, but his first-up record (1 from 2) suggests he can run well. The small class rise from Rest. 64 to Restricted 70 is manageable given his consistent form at this level. Barrier 3 is ideal, and he should get a cushy run.

Our price $10.00 · SP $11.00 · Aaron Sweeney

Beyond Ready is a classy horse who has been racing in Open company but hasn't fired lately. He drops back to Restricted 70, which is a significant class relief. Value option.

Our price $3.50 · SP $13.00 · Lek Maloney

She won impressively last start at Pioneer Park and draws a capable jockey in Lek Maloney who has 6 wins from his last 20 rides. Barrier 6 is manageable at Fannie Bay on a good track.

Our price $5.00 · SP $5.50 · Jarrod Todd

Starspangledancer has a superb record at Fannie Bay with 6 wins and 4 placings from 28 starts, including 4 wins over this track and distance. Barrier 1 is ideal and she gets in with just 55.5kg. However, her last two runs were disappointing and she has been off for 50 days.

Our price $4.50 · SP $4.00 · Jarrod Todd

Devils Delight is a consistent Fannie Bay performer with six wins from 15 starts locally. Drawing the inside gate is a major asset on this track. The class rise to Open is a query, but his tactical speed and barrier advantage make him a strong place chance.

Our price $15.00 · SP $21.00 · Wayne Davis

Barrier 3 is a strong draw at Fannie Bay and she has the advantage of recent racing. Her last run was poor but she may have needed the run after a long spell.

Our price $15.00 · SP $21.00 · Wayne Davis

Barrier 3 is ideal at Fannie Bay and she has race fitness from a recent start. Her last run was poor, but she may have been overmatched in that class.

Our price $2.85 · SP $2.35 · Hannah Le Blanc

Jumping Power Two has an unblemished record at Fannie Bay with four wins from four starts, including two over this track and distance.

Our price $8.33 · SP $10.00 · Danielle Hirini

Kalimna Views comes off a close second in a Rest 64 at Fannie Bay three weeks ago, matching today's class. The main negatives are the jockey's recent form and a 0% jockey/trainer record.

Our price $5.00 · SP $3.50 · Hannah Le Blanc

Faberge Tzar owns the best track/distance record in the field with 3 wins from 9 starts at Fannie Bay 1600m. He drops back from higher grades (Rest 64) and barrier 4 is favourable given the strong inside draw bias. However, his recent form is patchy with a string of midfield finishes, including a 6th last time out in a Rest 58. The class drop helps, but he needs to find his best to win. Still a clear threat based on historical performance at this circuit.
