• To Win: #12 She’s Bulletproof ($6.50 at time of publish) – BET NOW

Wide open edition of The Heath and a tricky race from a betting perspective, but I think based on what she did last prep SHE’S BULLETPROOF (10) looks a very classy mare who is right up to winning at this level fresh. She’s yet to win first-up but has placed in all three of her resuming runs to date so isn’t exactly a flop when kicking off campaigns. Charlotte Littlefield’s now five-year-old daughter of Shooting To Win looks ready to hit peak maturity now, and she was so brave here at the highest level in the autumn when runner-up to now confirmed The Everest slot holder Jimmysstar in the Group 1 Oakleigh Plate at this track and trip. She may have only carried 52kg in that, but she lost few admirers up to six furlongs at The Valley after when fifth in the William Reid on Soft going. She’ll appreciate a genuine Good rated track and has Craig Williams booked for the ride. Can win.
