Our Murray Bridge Racing Tips for Wednesday’s meeting.
Reynolds (Murray Bridge Race 8 No. 5)
This five-year-old Exceed And Excel gelding trained by Michael Hickmott has had 10 starts for two wins and two places. He is an import who had two races in the UK then six races in Hong Kong When resuming from a 37 week spell he was a 3.4 length winner of a maiden plate over 1400m at Oakbank on 3 April, then followed up with a 1.4 length win in a BM 60 over 1520m at Morphettville on 10 April. He looks nicely placed here and should win again.

Each Way
Devonte (Murray Bridge Race 6 No. 7):
This five-year-old gelding has two win and seven places from 24 starts. At the end of last campaign he was taken very wide and couldn’t come on for 5 lengths 8th over 1000m at Murray Bridge on 22 July. When resuming after 33 weeks he hooked out wide and ran home strongly late for 2.5 lengths 2nd over 1000m at Morphettville Parks on 13 March. That was an encouraging return and he looks worth an each-way wager.

Best Lay
Chill With Teejay (Murray Bridge Race 7 No. 1):
This three-year-old filly is the early favourite in this Fillies and mares Class 2 handicap over 1200m. She jumped awkwardly and lost her position approaching the turn before finishing 3.2 lengths 5th over 1000m at Morphettville Parks on 20 March, then weakened in the straight to finish 4.8 lengths 6th over 1200m at Morphettville on 10 April. She has been allocated topweight here against the older mares and despite the 3kg claim I think she will find this too tough.

Horse Racing Tips: VIC Friday 3rd May 2024
Key Comments The rail is true. The best bet is off the back of a strong second placing and looks hard to hold out launching from the good draw. Best Bet Red Red Wine (Echuca Race 8 No. 5) He has been hard to catch lately but was keen on him earlier this prep when he was smashed in the market and ran on well in a higher grade than this. Gets his chance in this field and should relish the drop in
Horse Racing Tips: WA Saturday 4th May 2024
Key Comments The feature is the Group 3 WA Sires' Produce Stakes (race 7). The track is rated Soft and the rail is +7 metres the entire circuit. Best Bet Profit Pocket (Ascot Race 2 No. 3) She’s won all 3 starts this campaign at Esperance, Ascot and Pinjarra At her last 2 wins she’s raced outside the leader before taking over for dominant wins. Think she can do it again. Check odds on SmartB Analyst: Jo Jackson
Horse Racing Tips: VIC Saturday 4th May 2024
Key Comments The rail is out 8 metres. The track played well last time. Suspect with the rail out that far it may suit those on speed. The best bet looks double the price it should be. Best Bet Cadmus (Caulfield Heath Race 3 No. 1) Hard to beat. Brilliant return up a few grades than this and looks superbly treated in this with the drop in grade. Smart move with the claim and is 1/1 over this trip. Check odds on
Horse Racing Tips: QLD Friday 3rd May 2024
Key Comments The track is rated soft and the rail is in true position for the 10 race meeting. Best Bet Flying D'amore (Kilcoy Race 4 No. 5) Filly from the Annabel Neasham stable who resumed for 5th over 1200m at Doomben on 17th April. Will find this easier and looks the leading chance.
