Our Canberra Racing Tips for Monday’s meeting. The feature races are the Jack Canberra Guineas (race 6) and the Canberra Cup (race 7).
I’m Devine (Canberra Race 8 No. 17)
Given the lack of speed in the race, I’m Devine can get away with the wide draw and looks extremely well placed to take this race out. This is a drastic drop in grade after being thrown in the deep end in a stakes race behind Espiona & Startantes. The first up win was outstanding and in here 1kg lighter than what it carried last run in a much harder race the $11.00 looks extremely appealing.

Each Way
Von Trapp (Canberra Race 6 No. 14)
I am a big fan of Von Trapp and if the track is playing fair it looks nicely placed take out the Canberra Guineas. There were issues at its run towards the end of last prep but I thought the return run was excellent against the likes of Fangirl and Espiona. Von Trapp didn’t quite enjoy being up on the speed last run so I’m expecting Sherry to take a sit and leave the run late for one last crack at them. Has a lethal turn of foot when right and has each way appeal.
$16.00
Best Lay
I Am Me (Canberra Race 4 No. 9)
I Am Me does come from an astute stable and has a senior jockey aboard but this race has plenty of value to be found. The current $1.80 looks short given it hasn’t raced in nearly 5 months and while there were flashes of ability in its last prep, race day fitness is with a few of these. Looks risky at the odds.
$1.80

Horse Racing Tips: TAS Sunday 28th April 2024
Key Comments The track is Soft and the rail is +4 metres the entire circuit. As a general rule, runners who land in the front half of the field are suited at this track, with a slight advantage to those who land forward of midfield and can find a cart into the race from the wider lanes in the straight. Best Bet Sky Land (Hobart Race 1 No. 10) This 2YO filly takes on the older horses here but has been very game
