ONE GOOD HORSE AT AVONHEAD TAVERN PREMIER 1200m

Track: SOFT     True  

The race pace here looks solid in this Maiden event over 1200m. HELLDANCER (8) is a former runner from an Australian stable fresh up for a new yard in this. He can win this for certain and will have very good backing too so stay tote alert. ELECTRIC DREAM (9) is fresh up here but still is a must include in his. Better than a single placed mare. BAX FACTOR (6) can pay a dividend today. Good run fresh up. Trifecta and first four must here. TOMMY SHELBY (1) has produced all good runs this time in. Can overcome wide draw and is a top tier must here on dry or wet ground. JETSTREAM (4) is better than a once placed (it came here too) gelding. He is a place and first four chance. SUGGESTED PLAY: Helldancer is a win wager.
