Our Balaklava Racing Tips for Wednesday’s meeting.
Dixie Whistler (Balaklava Race 5 No. 3)
This four-year-old Rebel Raider mare is going for a hat-trick here. She chased gamely to reel in the winner in the final 50m and win by 1.7 lengths over 1800m at Murray Bridge on 13 July, then came right away in the final 250m to win by 6.7 lengths over 2100m at Gawler on 20 July. Both of those wins were on soft tracks and she will go well again.

Each Way
Sirmaze (Balaklava Race 8 No. 11)
This five-year-old Hampton Court gelding trained by Grant Young at Murray Bridge has won at this track and distance before. He came from well back in the field to finish 5.3 lengths 7th over 1600m at Balaklava on 29 June where he got too far back, then chased solidly for 0.9 length 2nd over 1500m at Gawler on 20 July where he was at long odds. On a seven day back-up and looks a nice each-way bet.

Best Lay
Red Roof (Balaklava Race 2 No. 9)
This four-year-old Americain mare is the early favourite in this 2YO & upwards Maiden Plate over 1400m. She finished 3.9 lengths 4th over 1400m at Murray Bridge on 13 June, then was 0.7 length 3rd over 1400m at Murray Bridge on 13 July. I find the price too short for a horse that is still a maiden after 20 starts.
