Our Canberra Racing Tips for Sundays Black Opal meeting.
Remarque (Canberra Race 7 No. 2)
This two-year-old Snitzel colt trained by team Hawkes has raced once for an impressive win. He started favourite on debut because he had won both lead-up trials in good style and he duly saluted with a 2 length win over 1100m at Rosehill on 16 January. He has had a seven week let-up with a trial to keep him sharp. He has drawn well in barrier 2 and looks ready to win the 2021 Black Opal Stakes.

Each Way
Gem Dealer (Canberra Race 1 No. 6):
This five-year-old Dundeel mare has had four wins and three places from 21 starts. She resumed from a 12 week spell for a 4 length win on a heavy track over 1300m at Canberra on 7 August, then led early but faded for 2.6 lengths 7th over 1400m at Kembla Grange on 29 August. Resuming from a spell of 27 weeks she has won two of five first-up attempts and that combined with a trial placing on 19 February gives confidence to back her each-way on her home track.

Underground Music (Canberra Race 3 No. 10):
This four-year-old Your Song mare is the early favourite in this BM 65 handicap over 1400m. She resumed from a long spell for 1.17 lengths 2nd over 1200m at Canberra on 5 February, then battled hard for a 0.13 length win over 1300m in a Class 1 at Canberra on 19 February. The opposition is much tougher in this field and I am happy to risk her.

Key Comments The rail is out 3 metres. Going with a runner who is off a year break and brings in a very strong ratings profile to be notching off its maiden.

Key Comments The rail is in 7 metres. The track is in the soft range. Suspect runners may come wide later on in the day to be finding better ground. The best bet comes up at big odds. Best Bet Sing A Love Song (Newcastle Race 8 No. 5) Has always shown glimpses of talent across its career but does mix its form. Expect an economical run from barrier 5 and only 2 starts ago did hit the line hard crossing it with

Best Bet Mrs Supergrass (Sale Race 1 No. 6) Concede the price has shortened but there is plenty to like about the hopes of Mrs Supergrass in the first. She gave a bold sight on debut and went within half a length of winning as a $1.70 favourite. Mott
