Benalla tips and preview: Tuesday, May 7
Simon Zahra has found the perfect first-up race for Superior Zara at Benalla.
Herald Sun and News Corp form analyst Brad Waters looks at Tuesday's Benalla meeting.
BEST BET
SUPERIOR ZARA (Race 1 No. 8 - $2.30)
Superior Zara raced consistently last time in and wasn't disgraced in town at her last outing. She can break through at Benalla.
NEXT BEST
GUNDAROO (Race 6 No. 4 - $3)
Gundaroo resumes but was a city winner last December and can overcome a wide gate to score on Tuesday.
REFRESHING (Race 8 No. 11 - $3.90)
Refreshing went down narrowly at Pakenham last time out but she'll be fitter for three runs in and has drawn to go one better.
VALUE BET
SILENT ALERT (Race 2 No. 7 - $7)
Silent Alert will be fresh for this after a good effort at Wangaratta in January. A repeat would make him hard to beat.
THE JOCKEY
HARRY COFFEY
Jockey Harry Coffey has a book of four rides at Benalla. SHYLEAH (Race 1 No. 7 - $2.80), SILENT ALERT (Race 2 No. 7 - $7), WARBY RANGES (Race 3 No. 7 - $4.40), CASCADE MOUNTAIN (Race 4 No. 1 - $5.50), JUDGE KELLIE (Race 8 No. 9 - $5), DUNLOE (Race 9 No. 3 - $4).
