Ipswich Cup Runner-By-Runner Guide

1. Winsome Rambo (Best Each Way) @ $6.50

He gets the inside draw, and that could be enough to see him land on the speed and be out of trouble.

The 15-time winner is quick enough to find the front, with most of the speed drawn out wider, and that could be the winning of the race.

He’s worth including in picks at $6.50.

2. Zipping Urban @ $19.00

The son of Wow likes racing at the track and distance, but he could be outclassed by some stellar Group 1 types in this field.

We can’t see him figuring in the finish, hence the lengthening odds.

3. My Boy Bingo (Best Roughie) @ $19.00

Punters get value odds for My Boy Bingo, who ran second behind Gold Force last time out, albeit six lengths behind the favourite.

We don’t see him beating our top pick, but he could run a big race, and at $19, he could add value to multiples.

4. Malawi Rebel @ $26.00

With all the speed on his outside, he could get cramped for room early, and that could be the undoing of his race.

We don’t see him running well enough to win, and he’ll need a lot of luck into the first turn.

5. Cumbria Jack @ $2.25

The biggest danger to the favourite after a good heat win, and although he might have pressure on his outside, he’s a tough type.

We expect it to be a match race between the favourites if they don’t get shuffled back early, and he’ll be right there in the finish.

6. Gold Force (Best Bet) @ $2.20

An explosive type who was far too good for them last time out when scoring by lengths. He only needs to get off to a good start to put them away, so we’re banking on that happening.

If he finds the front, they won’t beat him, and the $2.20 odds could firm on race night. He is a popular greyhound, and he could live up to his potential in the Ipswich Cup.

7. Cumbria Chrissy @ $31.00

She ran well enough for second last time out, but she’ll need to find 4-5 lengths on that effort.

If the dogs to her inside find the front, she could get a nice drag across, but on speed alone, she looks outclassed.

8. Cumbria Benny @ $18.00

He was no match for Winsome Rambo last time out, and although we rate Rambo, we don’t think it’s the best form guide given Benny was 4.25 lengths behind the winner.

We’re happy to leave him out of picks at the odds.

9. Validate @ $8.00

Respected in the betting, and if he gets a run, his odds could shorten. Not everything went to plan behind Gold Force, but he’s a chance with luck.

We’re including him in first four picks if he makes the field.

10. Penny Calido @ $41.00

Unlikely to get two scratching in a Group 1, so her chances looked doomed from the get-go.
