Bunbury tips and results

Our price $2.60 · SP $3.90 · William Pike

Solid at the place.

Our price $8.00 · SP $4.20 · Brad Parnham

The best of the Lark Hill trial brigade. Barrier 3 is the pick of the draw for a track that rewards runners positioned in the first three at the 400m, and first-time winkers plus a capable Bunbury rider add to the case. The trial clock does not match the Belmont pair, so this is a placing rather than a winning proposition.

Our price $6.50 · SP $20.00 · Chanel Cooper

The value angle in a race full of unraced trial form. The wide gate and unproven wet record justify each-way rather than win.

Our price $5.50 · SP $8.50 · Victoria Corver

The most complete profile for these conditions. Bunbury on Soft rewards distance-proven, track-proven, in-form runners placed by the 400m, and this mare ticks every box.

Our price $9.00 · SP $17.00 · Paul Harvey

The tactical wildcard. With no genuine leader engaged and a slow tempo forecast, Fortunate Spirit is the one runner who can take control - and Bunbury on Soft rewards that pattern heavily, with front-three-at-the-400m runners winning more than four times as often as those held up. Barrier 13 and an untried trip cap the confidence to place-level.

Our price $13.00 · SP $21.00 · Brayden Gaerth

The overlay. He is only three starts into his career, every one of them on wet tracks, and he now gets a suitable gate, a slow tempo to settle into, and the same rider who partnered him for that improved effort.

Barrier 5 and the light 54.5kg suit the inside-to-middle tilt. Wet ground is the unknown.

Our price $12.00 · SP $17.00 · Joey Azzopardi

Gold And Grey has the best wet-track resume in a race full of runners unproven on Soft - four starts on rain-affected going including a third at exactly 1400m at Pinjarra on Soft 5. Two starts ago she was fourth over 1400m and the trip pattern is consistent.

Our price $2.80 · SP $2.20 · Jarrad Noske

The most reliable form line in the race. Barrier 5 lets him sit handy, which is the dominant winning pattern at Bunbury on Soft.

Our price $5.00 · SP $11.00 · Clint Johnston-Porter

The clear value runner.

Our price $4.50 · SP $4.40 · Giaan O'Donnell

Class and trip suitability make this the main danger. Both his wins have come over 1000m and he has a Soft 6 win on the board at Belmont, so today's ground is no barrier. The obvious concern is the first-up profile - three previous fresh runs have produced nothing - and 58kg top weight is a real impost. Barrier 5 gives him the map to sit handy, which is the key winning pattern at Bunbury on Soft.

Our price $5.50 · SP $10.00 · Sharni Webster

The wet-track and track-and-distance specialist of the race. Every one of her ten starts has come at 1000m for two wins and two placings, and she has both won and placed at Bunbury over this exact trip on rain-affected ground.

Our price $4.20 · SP $8.00 · Brad Parnham

The value angle rests on track affinity and a genuine positive signal. The first-time tongue tie on a mare who has been racing flat is a legitimate improver, and 55.5kg from barrier 3 maps her handy into the fast tempo - exactly the profile Bunbury Soft data rewards.

Our price $3.60 · SP $2.40 · Paul Harvey

Against him: no win from five attempts at 1200m, an unproven second-up profile and a jockey booking well out of form.

Our price $2.60 · SP $2.70 · William Pike

Dark Avalanche has been placed at all three runs this campaign against Class 1 and Class 3 opposition, is a proven Bunbury performer with a win and two placings from four starts here, and has already run second over this course and distance. Barrier 1 with Pike lets him take up a forward position, which is the single most durable edge at Bunbury on Soft. Lightly raced and progressive against exposed rivals.

Our price $11.00 · SP $17.00 · Holly Nottle

Sandfire Rose has a win and three placings from eight attempts at 1400m and was beaten under a length over the trip on Soft 5 at Pinjarra two starts back before an unsuitable 1613m run. She has already finished second in a Class 5 at this track. Barrier 12 is the obstacle and she needs luck to be handy by the 400m, which caps confidence at this level.
