Kyneton Tips 2/2/2023
BEST BET 🏆
Race 9 No. 7 REGAL VALOUR – ($3.60)
Best bet comes up in the final race of the day and REGAL VALOUR should be hard to beat for the Matt Cumani stable. She was a solid winner at the track and trip four starts ago and has been mixing it in harder company since then. At her most recent start she tackled the 2200m at Bendigo and stuck on fairly to finish 6th behind Irish Butterfly, while she was 5th at Sandown at her run prior. The daughter of So You Think gets back to BenchMark 58 and has attracted plenty of support in the betting.
NEXT BEST 🥈
Race 1 No. 6 LAURION – ($12)
LAURION shapes as an each-way contender in the opening event of the day at Kyneton. The four-year-old is winless in 13 career starts and was back in a slowly run race at Kyneton over the 1607m on February 24 before producing the fastest last 200m to run 6th behind Highland Harley, beaten three lengths. Tempo looks a bit better for this assignment and the step up to the 1850m looks like it will suit the son of Master Of Design.
BEST VALUE 💰(EACH-WAY)
Race 8 No. 10 LANGWORTHY – ($13)
Another at the each-way quote that can go close comes up in Race 8 in the form of LANGWORTHY. The six-year-old has been around the mark in a number of runs this preparation and just missed out at Moe on February 19 at his most recent start, finishing 3rd behind Diamanda. He settled just off the speed but couldn’t quite reel in the leaders. The son of Sacred Falls did all the early work at the track and trip prior to that when 4th to Catskill Mountain, just going down in the last 100m. He just needs to find a spot from barrier 10 for this to be challenging them late in the piece.
