Early Market Moves Tattersall's Tiara Day 2016

24 June 2016 11:16 AM

One of the first weeks in a long while where the top early money selections didn't find a winner, however there were several highlighted movers that placed at good odds. Amongst those were Sky Dazzle at Moonee Valley which ran 1.25 lengths second paying $6.30 the place, and Elusive Catch at Ipswich missing by a long neck at $3.30 the place.

This week the team has concentrated on the Group 1 Tattersall's Tiara meeting at Eagle Farm highlighting the top selections amongst those runners that have received strong early support.

betting moves

Glendara got too far back last start over the 1650m. Will appreciate the drop back in distance. Form lines are thereabouts and gets some good weight relief here. Good chance at odds.

Lordag. No excuses for him last start. Before that the pattern didn't suit and met interference before that again. Has won his only start this distance and despite average recent form, he does respond well to soft tracks. His best gets him close here. Chance.

Craiglea Deken drops 6.5kg from his last run when he won in Townsville with 60.5kg. Beat Craiglea Wandoo the run before that who wasn't far away in the Gold Coast Guineas. Drawn well and some chance if he handles the sting out of the track.

Banda Spice gets a tougher assignment here after winning nicely in easier company last start at the Sunshine Coast. 1200m looks right for her and drawn to get a good position in the running.

Index Linked had excuses in the Brisbane Cup last time out when he found the worst ground in the run home. Will be hard to beat if he can reproduce his 1.5 length second in the G3 JRA at Randwick in April behind Guardini. Can win.

Danish Twist has been impressive this campaign mixing her distances and winning each of her last four starts against good opposition. Especially like the way she beat the boys last start dropping back to 1100m. Can settle anywhere in the field so expect her to make the most of barrier one. Top chance.

Miss Cover Girl was gutsy last start against the boys when 0.6 lengths behind Spill The Beans in the G2 QTC Cup. Needs to be stronger to get 1400m now.
