Awapuni Synthetic tips and results

Our price $4.80 · SP $2.10 · B Queiroz

Platinum Sixty Six has been a model of consistency with a string of seconds and thirds, and the inside barrier plus Queiroz's excellent track record should ensure a favourable trip. He finished just behind Wind Talker in the key reference race and may not have the same upside, but this race shape suits; he is a strong place chance.

Our price $5.50 · SP $6.10 · K Chowdhoory

Luckytobehere has finished third in three straight 2140m synthetic maidens, beaten only about a length in two of them. She maps to settle handy in a race expected to run at a slow tempo, giving her every chance in a modest Restricted 60.

Our price $6.00 · SP $7.40 · B Queiroz

Just A Drop is hard to trust after a 9th and 8th at 1400m since her maiden win, but this is a weak Restricted 60 and she has B Queiroz, the leading jockey at this track. The negatives are no 2140m form and a slowly-run race not suiting a backmarker, so she rates as a place chance rather than a top win hope.

Our price $7.00 · SP $12.00 · Toni Davies

Cry Baby is the value runner. She drops to Restricted 60 with just 53kg from the inside gate.

Our price $3.00 · SP $2.90 · K A Myers

Meridivaci is the clear form reference. His last start second over this exact course and distance on synthetic stands out in a moderate maiden, and he has continued to progress. He is yet to win, and the 58.5kg top weight plus a midfield draw are concerns, but the even tempo should let him reproduce the same finish that nearly broke through last time.

Our price $9.00 · SP $13.10 · B Queiroz

Bashar is a speculative value runner. His only start was a distant fifth over 1000m on this track, but he is bred to want further and Queiroz is an excellent synthetic-track rider.

Our price $3.40 · SP $4.30 · Liam Kauri

Showbastian Coe is the model of consistency at Awapuni Synthetic, with nine top-three finishes from ten attempts over this 1000m trip. He maps to lead from barrier 3 in a moderate tempo and should control the race from the front. The main concerns are his 8yo age and a win drought since September 2025, but his repeatable course pattern makes him the most likely winner.

Our price $4.40 · SP $3.80 · K Chowdhoory

Ka Ying Lucky rarely runs badly over 1000m at Awapuni Synthetic, with three starts producing a win, a second and a third. He drops to 54.5kg, draws barrier 2, and has the early speed to hold a favourable position in a moderate tempo. His recent form is mixed, but this is clearly his optimum trip and surface.

Our price $4.00 · SP $6.60 · J K Riddell

Love Janie is the form choice on her outstanding Awapuni Synthetic 1700m record: three wins and five thirds from eight starts. Top weight of 60kg is the main concern, but her course specialisation and recent consistency make her the most likely winner.

Our price $7.50 · SP $7.60 · A K Riddell

She meets Love Janie 6kg better today, is down to the minimum 54kg, and should again be closing strongly.

Our price $4.80 · SP $6.50 · L Sutherland

Sunshine Ale is the strongest balanced chance. She is proven over this exact course and distance, won twice at 1400m, and was far from disgraced in a BM74 over this C&D last start before being hampered. The drop back to BM69, low draw, and light weight give her every chance to return to winning form. The main query is consistency, but her C&D profile is the best in the race.

Our price $5.50 · SP $5.50 · L J Allpress

Am I Blue rates as the value runner. Her first-up fourth at this track and distance was better than it looks given she was checked near the 150m, and her second-up statistics suggest she can take a significant step forward. Allpress is riding with confidence and the mare maps comfortably behind the speed.
