Best Bets
Our Canberra Racing Tips for Friday’s meeting.
Molly Nails (Canberra Race 7 No. 3)
This four-year-old Tavistock mare trained by Matthew Dale resumes here after a 25 week break. She hung on for a narrow win over 1200m at Moruya on 3 January, then battled away for 1.6 lengths 4th over 1400m at Warwick Farm on 26 January where she bled and was banned for 3 months. She has excellent first-up statistics (2 wins and 2 places from 4 runs) and is good enough to win this.

Each Way
Rafha’s Choice (Canberra Race 2 No. 3)
Nick Olive trains this eight-year-old I Am Invincible gelding who has been racing in Sydney. He led until the 200m and faded late to finish 4.6 lengths 4th over 1100m at Kensington on 15 June, then was never comfortable on the heavy 10 when 11 lengths 6th over 1100m at Warwick Farm on 13 July. Should race on the speed and looks a good each-way bet.

Best Lay
Euphrates Dream (Canberra Race 8 No. 1)
This three-year-old Pride of Dubai filly trained by Matthew Smith at Warwick Farm is the early favourite in this Class 1 Handicap over 1000m. She resumed from a spell for 2.3 lengths 6th over 1000m at Muswellbrook on 22 May, then kept chasing for 0.7 length 2nd over 1000m at Hawkesbury on 30 June. She has topweight of 59kg to carry and has drawn the widest barrier. Other runners offer better value.

Horse Racing Tips: NSW Tuesday 15th October 2024
Key Comments A small 7 race card takes place. Expecting Andrew Mallyon to be the jockey to follow as he rides mostly favourites for the card. Expecting all runners to have their chance on this track. Best Bet Written Fame (Murwillumbah Race 6 No. 5) Written Fame is a consistent runner who is yet to miss the top 4 this prep. This 4yo Gelding is 2/3 on this track and has won fourth up in the past. The only niggle is its record
Horse Racing Tips: NSW Monday 14th October 2024
Key Comments The track is in the good range. The best bet looks very hard to beat with Andrew Gibbons aboard and has been subject to some very strong early market support. Best Bet Calga Power (Tamworth Race 2 No. 9) Strong effort on debut when running a commendable fourth and should get every hope from the solid draw in this. Maps for a tidy run, Gibbons sticks, drops in grade and looks very hard to beat as the market suggests. Check odds
Horse Racing Tips: Hong Kong Sunday 13th October 2024
Key Comments There are 10 races for the Sunday meeting and the feature is the Group 2 Sha Tin Trophy over 1600m (race 7). The rail is in the A+3 position and the weather is fine so the track will be good. The first race is at 12.35 pm Hong Kong time which is 3.35 pm AEST. Best Bet Charmander (Sha Tin Race 4 No. 6) Won at this track and distance when fresh then ran 2nd over1600m last start where he peaked
Horse Racing Tips: NSW Sunday 13th October 2024
Key Comments The track is in the good range. The best bet resumes off a break and has been heavily backed with conditions to suit. The feature race is the Coonamble Cup (race 7). Best Bet Jessandi (Coonamble Race 6 No. 8) Big hope resuming for the new stable and the early market support is a great sign, as is the push of Bullock riding. Can take this out on resumption and gets conditions to suit. Check odds on SmartB Analyst: Bryce
