Michael Manley’s Best Bet for Moonee Valley Saturday 6/9/25

 

Moonee Valley R8 #4 Desert Lightning $2.40

This sets up perfectly for Desert Lightning from every angle.

At his most recent start, he finished second to high-class galloper Private Eye in the G2 P.B. Lawrence Stakes, where the winner dictated terms from the front.

Desert Lightning can take control of this race himself, with very little natural speed engaged.

He also brings a clear fitness edge, having raced consistently through the Queensland winter before resuming in Melbourne.

Well treated at the weights and proven on rain-affected ground, Desert Lightning has all the right conditions to return to the winners’ stall.
