Our Canterbury Park Horse Racing Tips for Wednesdays meeting.
Magic Ruler (Canterbury Race 3 No. 2):
This three-year-old Snitzel gelding trained by Matthew Dunn has three places from five starts. He resumed from a 26 week spell for 4.3 lengths 4th over 1100m at Kensington on 3 February, then battled on well for 2.78 lengths 2nd behind a strong winner over 1200m at Newcastle on 18 February. Has been gelded and resumes here after a 10 week let-up. Ran 2nd in a recent Rosehill trial and looks ready to win.
$2.50
Each Way
Island Bad Boy (Canterbury Race 7 No. 8):
This three-year-old All Too Hard gelding trained by Tony Sergi at Queanbeyan has three wins and a place from his five starts. He knuckled down in the straight for a 1.09 length win over 1300n at Canberra on 31 March, then looked beaten when headed at the 200m but dug deep and fought back for a narrow win in the Guineas Prelude over 1400m at Wagga on 18 April. This is his first metropolitan run but he is a nice type and looks a good each-way bet.
$7.50
Best Lay
Quiet Riot (Canterbury Race 4 No. 4):
This four-year-old Fastnet Rock gelding is the early favourite in this BM 72 handicap over 1100m. He was winded in the latter stages to finish 1.7 lengths 6th over 1300m at Warwick Farm on 31 March, then was the leader straightening but faded late for 3.2 lengths 6th over 1300m at Hawkesbury on 14 April. Gets the blinkers on for the first time and won a recent 900m Rosehill trial. Offers no value at the current price.

Key Comments The rail is true. The best bet is on the first of the day and looks well placed to notch up its maiden win. Best Bet Superior Zara (Benalla Race 1 No. 8) Hard to beat resuming and the market should tell the story late. This 3yo Filly strikes the ideal race to break through and brings a strong ratings profile in comparison to the field. Hard to beat. Check odds on SmartB Analyst: Bryce Parker
