Racing and Sports highlight our standout plays for Australian TAB meetings on April 7.
Five TAB meetings are held across Australia on this Tuesday at Ballina, Kembla Grange, Bendigo, Bundaberg & Rockhampton.
Kembla Grange: Race 3 @ 2:05pm
Pioneer goes fast and should lead from You're Next and Jonjo's Comet. PIONEER (3) led all the way to easily win his maiden over 1300m here two runs back. Again led but was thoroughly outclassed in a Provincial Championship qualifier over this course and distance last time. Winning chance back in a Class 1. JACQUINE REWARD (2) is a consistent gelding who just failed to hold out the smart Zakat over this course and distance last start. Big chance again with an ounce of luck from a tricky gate. BIGGER THAN THORN (8) returned from a six-month spell with a tough maiden win over this distance at Goulburn recently. Fitter for that run and gets a big weight pull on the top picks after the claim. SHAIBANAT (7) has been gelded and returns from a 20-week spell. Likely improver after showing glimpses of ability when last in work. SELECTIONS: #3 Pioneer will give a sight out in front and looks a great each-way bet.

Ballina: Race 5 @ 3:40pm
Foxy Walk to dictate terms. FOXY WALK (7) led and fought on gamely once headed to clock-in 3rd over 1350m at Doomben last start. Loves this circuit with four wins from 12 visits. Down in grade today and will be very hard to reel in after controlling the race in front. DREAMING OF BISCAY (4) charged through the line when a very close 3rd at Eagle Farm last start out over 1500m. Placed behind Plonka in the Country Championship qualifier at Grafton three back which is strong form. Big threat. JAKUTA (6) chimed in late to be beaten less than half a length in open company over 1530m at Murwillumbah recently. Yet to miss a place at Ballina - excellent each-way prospects. Last start Gold Coast winner DASH FOR VAN (11) has been racing well for some time and has to be included. SELECTIONS: Very keen on #7 Foxy Walk on an each-way basis.
Bendigo: Race 7 @ 4:00pm
Nerone may run them along. EVENING GLORY (6) resumes bringing strong city form at better level. Had to luck the latest and missed a whisker at Flemington prior. Is sure to be improved and just needs a good ride to go close. NERONE (10) has the speed to clear the wide gate and ran his best race when just beaten on resumption at The Valley in the Open 3. Will give them something to catch with the handy claim and is feared. NUCLEAR CHEVAL (13) draws low but has been missing the kick. May be able to sit closer and the small claim assists. MIDNIGHT COWBOY (1) also gets a handy claim and will push forward. Is third-up and gets the chance to build on the strong BM58 win. SELECTIONS: #6 Evening Glory has a future and kick off with a win.
