The Race Club’s Adam Curkpatrick is backing an impressive mare from the Busuttin & Young stable to toast a win at Moonee Valley on Saturday.
For his value bet, the racing expert has found a value runner in the 7th to get the chocolates at a juicy $13.00 price.
Best Bet
Moonee Valley (Saturday)
Race 8, 1600m
Chandon Burj ($5.50, $2.10)
Chandon Burj ($5.50, $2.10) is going better than the form guide indicates, outclassed but doing enough to think she can peak now back to her right grade and a track she has had success at prior.
Like Ollie taking over, having had good success prior, including a 3.7L margin win this track and distance, setting up much the same here.
Good value, good bet.
Tip: Win

Value Bet
Race 7, 1600m
Interpretation ($13.00, $4.00)
Interpretation ($13.00, $4.00) is a classy enough stayer resuming, and I’m comfortable with the mile to kick off based on his work leading in.
The speculation comes in the gap between jump outs, however how forward he was in the most recent hit out alleviates that.
In a race with enough queries, he is double figures and the value for me today.
