Wangaratta: Race 8; #12 Smart Poppy
Strong bm64 for a Tuesday with multiple last start winners and horses that have been running well in better grade. I am happy to risk Smart Poppy at the price, who comes into the hardest race he has contested for some time.
Although a better horse this time in, last time he was in this grade he finished 10.5 lengths off the winner. The market has this race figured out and I think the top two in betting will be very hard to beat.
HARNESS
First up from NZ and these horses generally start short in the market. Had a recent trial at Bacchus Marsh where it led and was only fair so would have to improve significantly off that performance to be winning this race of good depth.
