Bonecrusher New Zealand Stakes Form Guide & Tips

(1) El Vencedor (Best Bet – $1.95)

Use Code: 'GOBET500'Check Offers

El Vencedor has gone to another level this campaign after posting three consecutive wins at the top level.

The six-year-old owns four wins from five starts at Ellerslie, and he likes to roll forward and he’s awfully tough to run down.

We’re happy with $1.95 for the favourite, who is the best horse in the field.

(2) Whangaehu (Best Roughie – $14.00)

Use Code: 'GOBET500'Check Offers

He has been in excellent form this season, including a win two back at Trentham and a placing last time out behind El Vencedor.

We believe he’s good enough to repeat that effort, so getting $14 to win and $2.75 to place is a fair price from bookmakers.

(3) Meaningful Star ($35.00)

Use Code: 'GOBET500'Check Offers

His form earlier this preparation was solid enough with back-to-back wins, but his recent efforts for ninth aren’t great form guides.

He’s likely to struggle to keep up with the Group 1 field.

(4) Wolfgang ($27.00)

Use Code: 'GOBET500'Check Offers

He won the Wellington Cup two starts back before finishing second at Matamata last start. He’s a smart type on his day but this is a different race.

We expect him to struggle to keep up with the pace of the race.

(5) Midnight Blue ($27.00)

Use Code: 'GOBET500'Check Offers

A lack of recent winning form is concerning and we think he should be aimed at something a touch easier than the Bonecrusher New Zealand Stakes.

Without a win or placing at Ellerslie, we can’t recommend him.

(6) La Crique (Best Each Way – $5.50)

Use Code: 'GOBET500'Check Offers

La Crique is all class and she’s good enough to beat the favourite. She finished second behind El Vencedor at Te Rapa last start, which followed a placing behind Snazzytavi.

It’s excellent form for a runner paying $5.50, and she only needs a touch of luck to win.

(7) Orchestral ($3.40)

Use Code: 'GOBET500'Check Offers

Her best form has come in age-group races, but we’re not leaving her out. She ran third in a similar race last start, and there is good market confidence.

We wouldn’t have rated her at $3.40, considering she’s yet to win out of age-group grade, but she’s clearly talented.

(8) Qali Al Farrasha ($18.00)

Use Code: 'GOBET500'Check Offers

The four-year-old mare won well fresh up before threatening to win with four consecutive second placings.

The $18 odds are better than expected, so she’s worth including in selections.
