SELECTIONS - 27 April 2005

Can't find anything at Bunbury, Devonport or Gawler and only a few elsewhere. They are appalling looking fields with nothing that really stands out.

Canterbury 3-4 Federal Reserve had one run last preparation behind the much spruiked Gonski and finished 6th beaten 7.7L. That was a much stronger race than this. Tuned up with a good trial when 2nd to Hadaaf recently and has Darren Beadman on board. Is $11 on the morning line but with DB riding we won't see any of that.

Ipswich 7-4 Bit Of Magic rattled home to be beaten less than 2L first up at the Gold Coast last time. Second up last preparation he won over 1400m there and the step to 1350m should suit.

Sandown 1-7 Megadeal wasn't brilliant away but was involved in a three way battle for the front at Bendigo last time. In that race Camaro began very quickly from out wide and led into the straight with Megadeal in the one-one trail to using the harness term. Megadeal picked up Camaro, who fought hard, and nearly caught the winner. Being by Redoute's Choice she should be suited by 1200m and was certainly going strongly on the line. Any backing for first starter, Nella Dane, from the Ellerton camp would be significant given it's by Danehill out of Tennessee Morn and would have cost a motza.
