On The Punt Bairnsdale tips Monday $5.50 best bet
News Corp form analyst Brad Waters looks over Monday’s Bairnsdale meeting.
BEST BET
VIENNA VIXEN (Race 6 No. 9 – $5.50)
Vienna Vixen was an impressive winner first-up last time in and was competitive in town. She’ll find this easier and can again score first-up.
NEXT BEST
TIFFANY VALENTINE (Race 7 No. 7 – $3.90)
Tiffany Valentine scored easily first-up and wasn’t disgraced at this level second-up. There’s no reason she can’t improve with extra fitness.
KANDYAN (Race 8 No. 1 – $3.10)
Kandyan broke her maiden two runs back before a fair effort in town last time. She drops in class and can return to winning ways in the last.
VALUE BET
BAO BUN (Race 3 No. 8 – $9)
Boa Bun did her best work in the last 200m in a batter effort last time. She’s hard fit and could improve back on the turf.
THE JOCKEY
CARLEEN HEFEL
A book of six rides should produce some success for Carleen Hefel at Bairnsdale. MIRRORING (Race 1 No. 3 – $2.30), TOI ET MOI (Race 2 No. 12 – $8), ALLONSY (Race 3 No. 13 – $12), ALOVELYBROWNHORSE (Race 5 No. 10 – $14), PEINTRE’S PRIDE (Race 6 No. 12 – $12), WAIPIO (Race 8 No. 12 – $8.50)
