Best Multibet Tips of the Day | May 16
Daily Multibet Tips
#8 - Capzinzi - PLC Pakenham R7
Capzinzi has been showing some impressive form lately. In her last race at Warrnambool, she quickened nicely over the final stages and secured a win with Ethan Brown on board. While this next race presents a tougher challenge, she looks to be on the up and improving with each run. Capzinzi has a strong liking for soft conditions, which works in her favor, as she's finished in the top 3 in all four of her career starts. Given her performance history and preference for softer tracks, she's one to watch. For this upcoming race, you can expect her to settle in around midfield and make a strong push towards the end.
#2 - Trooper Phoenix - PLC Northam R3
Trooper Phoenix is back from a spell and now under the guidance of a new trainer, coming off an impressive all-the-way trial win. This horse has shown plenty of potential, and with his inside draw in this race, he's likely to either take the lead or settle comfortably in the box seat. From there, he should give a big sight and be a strong contender. Alan Kennedy, who rode Trooper Phoenix to a solid 3rd place finish in Bunbury back in December, is back in the saddle, adding to the confidence in his chances. Given his recent form and the strategic advantage of the inside draw, Trooper Phoenix is definitely one to watch for a standout performance.
#13 - Clubhouse - PLC Grafton R4
Clubhouse had a tough run last time out, racing wide but still battling on well in a strong maiden race at this track. Today, he's got a better draw and the competition isn't as fierce, making him the one to beat. He's got a solid track record with two second places from two starts here and he likes the distance too. Plus, he's got a good record on his fourth run back, having come 3rd last year. Keep an eye on Clubhouse – he's primed for a big race today.
#8 - Capzinzi - PLC Pakenham R7 | $1.55 |
#2 - Trooper Phoenix - PLC Northam R3 | $1.60 |
#13 - Clubhouse - PLC Grafton R4 | $1.60 |
