BEST BETS

Tauranga Friday December 9

Race 3 INCUBO: Form runner from an in-form stable, looks the one beat after placings at last two starts.

Te Rapa Saturday December 10

Race 4 GOSPODIN: Off the winner’s list for a while but indications that include a last-start third on this track point to any time now.

Awapuni Saturday December 10

Race 7 FAMILY TIME: Big effort when just beaten first-up over 1600m. Step up to favourite distance looks a winning formula.
