THIS IS THE SECOND GOLD COAST POLYTRACK MEETING AND WILL BE THE MAIN RACING TRACK WHILE THE MAIN TRACK IS REFURBISHED. We will likely see that there will be track specialists which really prefer the surface which is sand mixed with carpet (really) and will drain really well so there wont need to be any cancelled meetings due to rain.
At the Darwin meeting today, their oil based sand track will be really wet which is expected to produce even faster times than normal as the base becomes compacted, think of wet sand on the beach. Its a challenge in those conditions.
I really like Toronomonica in Radwick Race 7 at the $26 each way. Zou Tiger has a good chance as well so I have taken a same race multi Zout Tiger to run top two and Toronmica to run top four. $7 at Bluebet which pays an extra 25% if you win. Ive backed both selections to win by the way against the $1.80 favourite Aft Cabin which I rate the 3rd best.
Good luck for the day. I will keep a close eye on GoldCoast to see how the expected ratings work out on the “new” track.
