Karaka Millions 3YO Form Guide & Tips

(1) Yaldi ($6.50)

Use Code: 'GOBET500'Check Offers

Yaldi has form in Australia and he brought that form back to New Zealand when winning two starts back.

His most recent effort was a solid third placing behind Checkmate, who earned a slot in the NZB Kiwi, so the form should up well.

(2) He’s Lucid ($23.00)

Use Code: 'GOBET500'Check Offers

We haven’t been overly impressed by He’s Lucid, and we think he’s a step below the best age-group runners in NZ.

He got a spot in the NZB Kiwi as well, but there were circumstances around that, and we can’t see him having an effect in either race.

(3) Tuxedo ($7.50)

Use Code: 'GOBET500'Check Offers

Tuxedo won his first two starts before placing behind Willydoit, who is one of the favourites for the NZ Derby.

He’s a tough son of Tivaci, and we’re happy to include him in our picks at each-way odds.

(4) Dealt With ($8.50)

Use Code: 'GOBET500'Check Offers

It’s tough to rule out an unbeaten runner from the James/Wellwood stable, so we’re picking him as a first four chance.

He won at Te Rapa and Pukekohe, and his latest win should hold up well enough to compete in the Karaka Millions 3YO.

Being by Ace High, he’ll only improve with time.

(5) Kiwi Skyhawk ($23.00)

Use Code: 'GOBET500'Check Offers

The son of Contributer hasn’t been too far away from the mark throughout his career, but as the odds suggest, winning this race would need a lot of improvement.

(6) Bourbon Proof (Best Each Way – $6.00)

Use Code: 'GOBET500'Check Offers

Punters get value odds for a last-start winner at Matamata who kicked away for a 2.8-length victory.

The three-year-old colt by Justify owns two placings from three starts at Ellerslie, and he’s good enough to take this out.

(7) Retrostar ($41.00)

Use Code: 'GOBET500'Check Offers

His form since winning fresh up has been poor and we can’t see him improving enough to feature in the finish.

(8) Balsan ($41.00)

Use Code: 'GOBET500'Check Offers

Balsan broke maidens at Te Rapa last time out but going from maiden racing to this level is a stretch.

That’s reflected in betting markets and it would be a big surprise if he ran in the top three.

(9) Billy Blinx ($71.00)

Use Code: 'GOBET500'Check Offers

He has yet to win a race and he should be fighting just to stay with them on the home turn.

(10) Damask Rose (Best Bet – $3.90)

Use Code: 'GOBET500'Check Offers

Luck wasn’t with Damask Rose last time out when getting too far back behind Yaldi. She was a $2.00 favourite on that occasion and we’re hoping Blake Shinn rides her positively.

She will need a touch of luck from a wide barrier, but she’s the best in the race and that could be evident on Saturday.

(11) Prosegur (Best Roughie – $10.00)

Use Code: 'GOBET500'Check Offers

We think Prosegur is going under the radar after finishing fourth behind Hitabell last time out.

That form would stack up well against this company and the O’Sullivan/Scott stable has been red-hot this season. Therefore, take the double figure odds available.

(12) Fun Never Sets ($23.00)

Use Code: 'GOBET500'Check Offers

We expected bigger odds from bookmakers, so we’re not entertaining the $23.00.

(13) Romilly ($17.00)

Use Code: 'GOBET500'Check Offers

She won well three back but after finishing ninth behind Hitabell, we can’t recommend her form in the Karaka Millions 3YO.
