Sunshine Coast Horse Betting Preview – January 10 2021
A small seven race program has been assembled for the Sunshine Coast. The track is rated a Heavy 9, and the rail is out +4m for the entire course.
Race 1 is set to jump at 1:10pm.
Best Bet – Race 4 #4 Maximak
Victorian mare Maximak was good in her Queensland debut, running fourth behind Shooting For Gold. The five-year-old should improve lengths up to 1400m, second up and on a wet track. From barrier 2, Mark Du Plessis should get an ideal run in transit behind a fairly hot pace. She should be finishing home the better.
Next Best Bet – Race 5 #8 Deel Blaster
We’re hoping Matt Laurie can train two winners today, with his Dundeel colt a hot favourite in the fifth. The three-year-old has had two starts, where he has finished sixth at The Valley, and then fourth at Doomben in a race where the leader gave nothing else a chance. He’s drawn awkwardly here in barrier 15, but with Jake Bayliss on board, he should be able to get over and find a spot. This might be a case of him being too classy.
Best Value Bet – Race 1 #6 Morgan’s Smile
Just the seven runners will contest the first race, so there will be no third dividend here which is a shame given we thought Morgan’s Smile was a big chance to run top three. The Mick Mair-trained four-year-old placed for the first time at start four last time out, when third at this track when a Soft 7. He can box seat from barrier 5, and should be suited by the drop back to 1000m on a heavy track.
