He’s short, but the form gurus are tipping it will be a sweet result for Andy Gath-trained import Tango Tara at Geelong on Saturday night.
Jason Bonnington, Nikkita Ross and caller Dan Mielicki have marked the horse as a best bet on the card, with the former Kiwi currently a $1.45 fixed odds chance with the TAB.
The horse has the inside of the back row to contend with, but looks very hard to beat in the Allied Express Pace (2100m).
Bonnington and Ross worked through the exciting 10-race meeting at Beckley Park during the Friday Form Panel edition of Trots Life on SEN Track, while Mielicki has done the form deep dive for his calling commitments at the meeting.
Mielicki, who is also bullish on the chances of Tango Tara’s stablemate Majestuoso in the Hygain Melton Trotters Free For All (2100m), spoke about his suggested plays during Thursday’s edition of Green Light On on RSN.
He will form part of the Trots Vision coverage alongside John Dunne and Steve Cleave tomorrow night, with the first race set to go at 5.34pm.
