Pinjarra Tips May 22


Bjs 360 Underwriting Maiden Tips (Race 3)


Pinjarra Best Bet - Race 3 No. 7 Heavy Metal

She has contested six black-type races, so the 12-start maiden can be forgiven and Heavy Metal has been building well ahead of Thursday's attempt.

The Luke Fernie-trained filly arrives third-up following a runner-up finish on May 1 and that winner (Fancy Red) franked that form with a big win at her next start.

Fancy Red had the favours in that clash, as she did no work from the box-seat, whereas Heavy Metal had to sustain a wide run from off the speed. 

Bjs Uaa Maiden Tips (Race 6)


Pinjarra Value Bet - Race 6 No. 3 Gringo

This gelding hasn't done a whole lot wrong in five appearances following a debut flop and he was ticking over fairly before an Ascot defeat in February.

There were excuses in that start four defeat, where Gringo covered ground throughout a 1600m maiden and he was tipped out after that tough run.

Gringo caught the eye first-up on May 1, with the fastest last 400m and 200m of the race, while the jockey dropped the whip at the 350m in his last appearance.

Bjs Perth Handicap Tips (Race 9)


Pinjarra Next Best Bet - Race 9 No. 3 Late Arrival

This ex-Victorian is undefeated in three starts since joining the Indianna Weinert stable and he completed the hat-trick at Ascot on April 30.

Late Arrival was made to earn his last victory, as the son of Pierro raced three-wide throughout and he was still too tough late over seven furlongs.

He defeated Dug Another Hole in that latest win, a galloper who had won four of his prior six outings and he also placed in a metro 65+ at Belmont last Saturday.
