Our Canberra ACT Racing Tips for Sunday’s meeting.
The feature races are the National Sprint (race 7) and the Black Opal Stakes (race 8).
Best Bet
Kimura (Canberra Race 5 No. 7)
This three-year-old filly resumes here after a 19 week spell. She won a maiden handicap over 13000m at Newcastle on 15 October, then was a narrow winner over 1400m at Newcastle on 29 October. Has had 2 trials and looks well-placed here.

Each Way
Shores Of Avalon (Canberra Race 6 No. 6)
This 6YO mare has been very consistent this campaign and has placed at her last 3 starts. She finished 2nd in the Wagga Scamper over 1000m at Wagga on 26 January, then ran 1.2 lengths 3rd in the National Sprint Preview over 1200m at Canberra on 24 February when she was mowed down late. Back to 1000m suits and she looks a nice each-way bet.
$5.50
Best Lay
Jumeirah Beach (Race 4 No. 2)
This 4YO is the early favourite in this BM 65 Handicap over 1400m. He won 2 races in a row at the end of last year at Muswellbrook and Mudgee. He resumed from a 9 week break for 4.3 lengths 11th over 1280m at Muswellbrook where he was eased down late. He is drawn wide, up in weight and looks too short a price in this field.

Horse Racing Tips: NSW Wednesday 14th May 2025
Key Comments The track is in the heavy range and hoping it stays that way so it bolsters the chances of the best bet who will relish the conditions. Best Bet Asgarda (Randwick Race 9 No. 3) 3/3 on heavy tracks including a huge win over Gallant Star last year. That form is good for this and if the track stays heavy it comes right into calculations at big odds. Keen to quinella with the 7. Analyst: Bryce Parker

Key Comments The track is in the heavy range so the key is backing runners who are proven in the conditions. Best Bet Naval Officer (Wellington Race 3 No. 1) Flies on this track and stays the trip. Form has been good in two of its past three runs around this grade and just needs even luck from the draw to give this a shake. Analyst: Bryce Parker Each Way Cumboogle (Wellington

Key Comments The track is in the heavy 10 range so keep an eye on if the meeting will go ahead or not. Best Bet Jonny Be Swift (Taree Race 4 No. 2) Rock hard fit and heavily tried last time out when not getting many favours in the run. Bullock sticks and is ready to win at appealing odds. Analyst: Bryce Parker Each Way Zaru (Taree Race 6 No. 6) Went
Horse Racing Tips: QLD Tuesday 13th May 2025
Key Comments The track is rated soft and the rail is +2.5 metres the entire circuit. Best Bet Power Of Katie (Rockhampton Race 1 No. 1) This filly has been running well this preparation with 4 wins and 3 places from 7 starts. She loves this track and won at this track and distance last start. Hard to beat. Analyst: Jo Jackson Each Way No Each Way Bet
