Sweet Encounter (Sha Tin Race 8 No.11)
No spoils in this one. This looks like an ideal opportunity for him to atone for his last start second over the 1400m here at Sha Tin. There were a lot of errors by the pilot last start when favourite but he still managed to finish the race off well behind the eventual winner Stunning Impact. This was his first race start where he ended up behind horses and I thought he did a pretty good job for such a lightly raced horse. He is at peak fitness now, and goes up to the mile, Zac Purton is on and he has drawn barrier 5 in a race that lacks serious pace so I expect them to either lead or box seat throughout. He should get a very soft run regardless and providing he handles the mile, he is going to be mighty hard to beat, hence why he is my best bet on the card.
Current Price: $2.00

Speed Fay Fay (Sha Tin Race 6 No.10)
He has had two nice placings so far this season. First up he finished a close-up third behind Sweet Encounter and Blissful Star before having the blinkers taken off and again running a 1.9-length third over this track and distance behind Marado and Casa Legend. The blinkers go back on which is the right move, Jerry Chau gets a kilo off thanks to his claim and he has drawn ideally in barrier two. He should be near peak fitness now and looks a nice each-way bet.

Horse Racing Tips: WA Saturday 5th October 2024
Key Comments Today’s feature is the Listed $150,000 Kalgoorlie Cup over 2300m (race 8). The track is rated good and the rail remains in the true position. William Pike and Lucy Fiore are the jockeys to follow. Best Bet Starry Heights (Kalgoorlie Race 8 No. 2) Won the Boulder Cup by 4 lengths last start and William Pike sticks. Just missed in the Coolgardie Cup the start before. Will be very hard to beat. Check odds on SmartB Analyst: Jo Jackson
Horse Racing Tips: QLD Friday 4th October 2024
Key Comments The track is soft and the rail is +0.5 metres the entire circuit. Best Bet Greylist (Rockhampton Race 3 No. 1) Greylist has only had one start and was a 0.8 length winner over 1050m at Mackay on 5th September. He drew clear late after racing greenly and should take natural improvement from that run. Winning chance. Check odds on SmartB Analyst: Jo Jackson Each Way Call Me Marilyn (Rockhampton Race 7 No. 5)
Horse Racing Tips: NSW Saturday 5th October 2024
Key Comments Monitor track conditions closer to the date with potential rain expected. Good odds about the best bet who will relish a drop in grade and can give a big sight over the 900. Best Bet Border Control (Newcastle Race 5 No. 1) Hasn't shown up this prep but looks suited back in grade and is 1/1 over this track and trip. Form last prep is superior to what these can produce and the odds are big to see if it can
Horse Racing Tips: NSW Friday 4th October 2024
Key Comments The track is in the good range. The best bet bobs up in the last race of the day and does find a significant drop in grade from its previous runs. Best Bet Canamble (Dubbo Race 8 No. 7) This is a decent drop in grade from last start and love the form prior when running third when well in the market in the Wellington Boot. Has the talent to overcome the wide draw and give this a shake. Check odds
