Geelong racing takes place on Thursday, June 4, with a nine-race program set down for Geelong.

Here are our best bets from the meeting, which also features in our daily selections.

Race 1 No.1- Bourne Legacy


Bourne Legacy can be an improver in the opener at Geelong. The Anthony & Sam Freedman-trained galloper made his debut on the Caulfield Heath recently with that coming over the 1000m and he was slowly away before settling midfield in a slowly run race. He took a while to warm up but closed off solidly to place 5th behind Vega Vixen. This looks a slightly easier Maiden and he will strip fitter, while the slight step up in distance will suit the son of Nicconi, who did show promise in the lead up trials to his debut. 

Race 2 No.7- Misty Whisper


Misty Whimper shapes as a major player in Race 2. The three-year-old has been building towards something in his two career starts, which have both been at Geelong. He did a few things wrong on debut when racing keenly then laying in when under pressure, placing 4th behind Marsept. Form out of that has been excellent with the winner going on to perform well at Flemington, while the runner-up has since won at Bendigo. At his only other start since then, Misty Whimper filled the exacta behind Immortal Triumph over the 1100m and enjoyed a decent gap on the rest of them, going 1.2 lengths slower than standard benchmark, which is the best last start figure of any runner. The son of D’argento draws perfectly in barrier 4 and should be ready to peak third up. 

Race 8 No.6- Join The Que


Race 8 is a Class 1 over the 1300m and Join The Que should be hard to beat. The Hayes galloper was a huge winner at Stawell during the carnival at that venue back at Easter then headed to Bendigo off a five week break, finishing runner-up behind Clevor Trevor over the 1300m. He was back in the field of eight on a very slow tempo and made a stack of ground in the straight before the lack of early speed counted against in the end. The winner out of that has gone on to win at Caulfield. Join The Que will settle second half in this from the draw and the field looks like it will string out a bit, which should set things up nicely for him. 

Race 9 No.5- Godtfred Kirk


Godtfred Kirk can overcome the wide barrier and end the day as a winner. The three-year-old steps out in the last and resumed with a runner-up at Pakenham over the 1100m behind Next Step Iowa. He settled back and didn't enjoy much daylight in the early parts of the straight before running on to go three lengths slower than standard, which is the best last start figure of any runner. At his last preparation, he was a three length improver on figures when 5th in a harder race than this at Sandown and he is always strong at the end of his races, while the extra 200m in distance brings him right into it.
