The Money Trail – Moonee Valley, March 24

3 minute read

Racing and Sports finds the best-backed runners in early betting on Friday’s meeting at Moonee Valley.

Doubt I'm Dreaming (Race 2) could be worth an each way ticket at $7 having halved his opening quote in the early stages of betting. The Not A Single Doubt colt makes his debut in a stakes race off a close second in a recent trial and the market push suggests much is expected first up.

Peninsula Links (Race 5) has been backed into second favouritism at $4.20, more than a point shorter than her initial price. The consistent Adelaide filly crosses the border with four wins and three seconds from her last seven starts and thrashed a handy field last start to suggest she is worthy of a shot at stakes company.

I Am A Star (Race 6) is a classy filly and the punters are sticking with her to beat the older mares, in a half point as a dominant $2.15 favourite with TopBetta fixed odds. A narrow winner against her own age last time, she showed she was up to more experienced rivals when winning the G1 Myer Classic over this distance last spring.

Silent Sedition (Race 7) remains at each way value in the William Reid at $5.50, almost 10 points shorter than the best early price available. The classy mare is back in trip but was unlucky not to land a G1 last start when second in the Coolmore Classic and the push suggests she gets a chance to atone.

The Andrew Noblet-trained mare Silent Sedition followed up her excellent second after a wide trip in the Coolmore Classic (registered as T A D Kennedy Stakes) (Gr 1, 1500m) at Rosehill on 11 March with a Group One win here. She settled in fifth place, three wide, from her difficult barrier (10) before moving up well (still deep) rounding the home turn. She hit the front on passing the 100m and then fought back gamely to score a narrow but very good win after another wide run. Hellbent raced in seventh place, between runners, edged into clear running coming to the home turn, quickly moved up on straightening, challenged at the 100m and battled strongly for the closest of seconds in a smart effort. The favourite Star Turn had a nice run from his good barrier (3) racing in fifth place on the rails. He got along the inner at the home turn and briefly looked the winner when he hit the front on straightening before battling on to take third place after seeming to have every chance. Rock Magic was third last in the 12-horse field to the 600m and ran on well for (1.5 lengths) fourth. Japonisme was eighth to the home turn and made late ground for (2.1 lengths) fifth, indicating a return to form as his second run this preparation while Sheidel showed her customary pace to lead and after setting a solid pace (first 600m 34.92) she weakened to finish (2.2 lengths) sixth.
