Our resident times analyst Nic Ashman is back from annual leave and is looking at a Melbourne 2yo to kick start his tipping segment for 2025.

CAULFIELD R5 N1 MY GLADIOLA

“Impossible to go past MY GLADIOLA. She travelled 2L below standard through her first 400m in the Blue Diamond Preview but unleashed the 4th fastest last 600m of the day to finish the 1000m race 2L above standard,” Ashman said.

“Worried about the wide gate? Only 1 of the last 6 winners have started from gate 4 or closer. The price is no luxury but she looks the goods.”

The top price around for MY GLADIOLA as at Thursday afternoon was $2.

Nic’s record of tips last year (18 collects from 28 selections) will be a hard act to follow in 2025 so the pressure is on!
