Our Belmont Horse Racing Tips for Wednesday’s meeting.
Find Your Man (Belmont Race 6 No. 2)
This four-year-old Deep Field gelding has a win and five places from 7 starts. He chased solidly for 2.1 lengths 4th over 1600m at Swan Hill on 10 September, then chased hard for 1.1 lengths 3rd over 1300m at Warrnambool on 14 October. Resumes from a 12 week let-up and is beautifully placed in this Class 1 handicap. Will be hard to beat.

Rhythm Star (Belmont Race 7 No. 3):
This five-year-old Blackfriars mare trained by Colin Webster has three wins and eight places from 19 starts. She ran on from well back in the field for 0.4 length 2nd over 1600m at Pinjarra on 12 December, then was overhauled late for 0.2 length 2nd over 1800m at Ascot on 22 December. Has placed at all four runs this preparation and is a solid each-way chance in this Class 3 handicap.

Best Lay
Fire Goddess (Belmont Race 8 No. 6):
This five-year-old Playing God mare trained by Todd Harvey is the early favourite in this RTG 50+ handicap over 1400m. At the end of last campaign she finished 7 lengths 7th over 2300m at Pinjarra on 6 June then was spelled for 27 weeks. She resumed for a 0.4 length win over 1190m at Narrogin where she ran home strongly. This looks harder and I’m prepared to risk her.

Key Comments The track is in the heavy range. Keep an eye on the conditions in the lead up and fingers crossed the meeting still goes ahead. Best Bet Self Worth (Grafton Race 1 No. 7) Looks well placed to resume a winner. Concede there has been 17 career starts for Self Worth but it does find a very thin maiden and has enough early speed to find a prominent spot and off set the wide draw. Check odds on SmartB

Key Comments The track is rated soft and the rail is +11 metres for the 9 race card. Best Bet Metalart (Eagle Farm Race 9 No. 9) Unbeaten at both his starts and should be running near the front. Both runs have been on soft going and he should be hard to beat. Check odds on SmartB Analyst: Jo Jackson Each Way Thesecondatportsea (Eagle Farm Race 4 No. 4) She’s won 3 of her 5 starts

Key Comments The track is rated soft and the rail is +7 metres from the 800m to 400m and +6 for the remainder. Best Bet Chosen Miss (Gawler Race 4 No. 1) Last start she was 0.5 length 2nd at Strathalbyn and the start before was a 4 length winner at Balaklava. She’s in form and gets a 3kg claim for Tala Hutchinson. Nicely placed. Check odds on SmartB Analyst: Jo Jackson Each Way High On

Key Comments The track is in the heavy 10 range. The rail is in 3 metres. The best bet has heavy form and looks a big hope with Gibbons steering. Best Bet Bellascent (Wyong Race 4 No. 6) Excellent run last start almost pulling off the win at decent odds. That was on heavy ground and it got within .2 of the winner. Should get conditions to suit again here and by this time of the day being drawn wide may not be
