Best Bets
Our Canberra Racing Tips for Sundays meeting. The feature races are the Group 3 Black Opal (race 8) and the Listed National Sprint (race 7).
Metallicity (Canberra Race 8 No. 4)
Loved the debut effort of Metallicity despite plenty going wrong for it. A change of tactics with the steer is likely and there are huge wraps about it from the stable. Needs some luck from the draw but I am surprised it didn’t open up clear cut favourite. Very well placed here and looks ready to win the 2022 Black Opal Stakes.

Chat (Canberra Race 7 No. 1)
Chat has irresistible formlines for this National Sprint race. I’m putting a pen through its last run in the Newcastle Newmarket as I doubt it handled the heavy track all that well. Prior run was a 4 length defeat behind Lost And Running with Overpass in second in the Group 3 Southern Cross Stakes. We saw Overpass come out and demolish the Inglis Sprint field last weekend and Lost And Running looks a very strong chance in the Group 1 Newmarket on Saturday. Form around these 2 high-class gallopers sticks out in this field and despite the awkward draw, Chat holds very strong claims in this field.

Aim (Canberra Race 7 No. 2)
Suprised Aim opened up favourite and I don’t think it is going near as well as it used to. Form at the moment reads very average and hasn’t been able to find the placings for quite some time. It is classy on its day but I couldn’t have it favourite in this competitive affair.
