Dean The Trial Spy brings us today’s bet of the day from Canberra
1:15pm AEST
Canberra Race 2
#4 King Coni $9.50 with TopSport
Led and was put under no pressure when a close second in Scone 900m Slow 7 trial, in second-quickest time of 11 trials on the day. Then won Scone 900m trial by 2.8 lengths as the third quickest of six trials on the day under no pressure. Has failed all three career starts, but the latest trials for the new trainer were okay alongside subsequent winners and a Group horse. Has worn bar plates previously and wears a tongue tie, so clearly a horse with potential feet and throat issues, but underlying ability. Has failed twice this prep. Faces a weak maiden here.
