Perennial placegetter Buckle Up Tyler (R1) for Leith trainer Gary Johnson has the chance to break his maiden status tonight and get punters off on the right note on a strong eleven event card at Tattersall’s Park.
On Monday night at Launceston this son of Meticulous led until the home straight before running third behind Miss Hetti.
Jumping from six again he will need a little luck early but his experience should count.
Maluka and first starter Hellyeah Phantom look next best.
Painted Patches (R4) should be very hard to beat for Mangalore’s Mick Stringer.
Having won his last two in convincing fashion this exciting Scull Murphy pup should make the hat trick.
Hardest for the son of Scull to beat will be Kimbo Slice and Megastar Spargo.
The Invitation looks hard for punters to sort out with track record holder Bergermeister quoted an even money prepost favourite although failing at his last three runs.
Trainer Mick Stringer has freshened up this son of Bit Chili and it will be interesting to see how he goes.
In form November Digger and the smart Lucky Norris may be the value runners in a tough race.
Silent Pirate (R10) for Russell Watts looks a good type and should be very hard to beat.
Best Bets: R1 No 6 Buckle Up Tyler, R5 No 4 Painted Patches, R9 No 3 El Bulli.
Best E/W: R4 No 7 Stylish Claud, R6 No 1 November Digger, R7 No 1 Li Li.
