Valiant Elegance | (Happy Valley Race 6 No.11)

This son of Salade was fantastic last start after almost two months off, winning in tremendous fashion by 1.8 lengths. What makes the win even better was the 59kg he carried in the race and he was still able to put them away with ease, thanks to the brilliant Hewitson/Whyte combination. He steps up to Class 3 now which means he drops to 52kg and the draw isn’t the work as he should still be able to sit in the front four. He is an attractive price and well worth a chance.

Current Price: $7.50 / $2.60

Best Each Way

Casa Kingdom | (Happy Valley Race 4 No.10)

Casa Kingdom is another I like who is stepping up in grade following a nice win. The son of Dundeel was also first-up when winning his Class 5 event by 0.8 of a length after coming from the second half of the field. Karis Teetan will take the reins here as he drops to 52kg and a favourable draw might see him settle a touch closer in the run. This isn’t a very deep Class 4, and I see him as a terrific chance at each-way odds.

Current Price: $13.00/$3.80

Horse Racing Tips: VIC Saturday 27th April 2024

Key Comments The rail is out 4 metres. The best bet was very unlucky last start when flying home and can kick the day off in fashion. Best Bet Bews (Caulfield Heath Race 1 No. 3) This 4yo Gelding has a booming turn of foot but usually requires a bit of luck in its runs. Flew to the line last start and finds a similar assignment here. May need a touch of luck getting off the rails at the right time but has

Key Comments The rail is true. Ashley Morgan rides the best and next best of the day. Expecting the track to play fair. Currently a Soft 6 at time of writing. Best Bet Just Joan (Bathurst Race 1 No. 9) She can land up on speed and prove hard to run down from the good draw. Maps to get favours from there and looks the right price at the $3.00 mark. Morgan steers and this race suits. Check odds on SmartB Analyst: Bryce

Horse Racing Tips: NSW Thursday 25th April 2024

Key Comments The rail is out 4 metres. The best bet comes up in the first of the day and is well and truly overdue for a win. Best Bet Je Reve (Gosford Race 1 No. 2) Has been around the mark all runs this prep and couldn't sustain a fast pace last run. Gosford should suit this front runner and does have 2 placings from 3 goes over this trip. Reith hops aboard for the first time and his 3yo Gelding is

Horse Racing Tips: WA Thursday 25th April 2024

Key Comments There are 8 races for the Anzac Day meeting where the feature is the $100,000 Diggers Cup (race 7). The track is Soft and the rail is out 12 metres the entire circuit. Best Bet Dance Boss (Ascot Race 3 No. 3) Dance Boss just missed when resuming at Ascot last start. He should take improvement from that run and is the one to beat.
