Each Way
Leadership Spill (Doomben Race 4 No. 7):
This Top Echelon gelding got this campaign off to a strong start with a 0.4 length win over 1000m at Eagle Farm on 2 September, then finished 1.3 lengths 2nd in a Class 3 handicap over 1000m at Eagle Farm on 23 September. He looks nicely placed here and looks a nice each-way bet.

Fun Fact (Doomben Race 5 No. 3):
This five-year-old gelding is the early favourite in the Queensland Cup over 2200m. He was winded in the latter stages and finished 3.4 lengths 6th over 1600m at Randwick on 19 September, then was the early leader and battled on for 0.2 length, 1.5 lengths 3rd over 1900m at Rosehill Gardens on 26 September. He has won once over this distance but others look better over this journey.

Horse Racing Tips: VIC Tuesday 15th October 2024
Key Comments Expecting on pace runners to be suited. The best bet is a progressive type coming off a large maiden win and can go right on with things in a suitable step up in grade. Best Bet Perfectly Good (Kilmore Race 6 No. 12) Drawn to perfection and a lot to like about the last start win when backed off the map and winning with ease. Was a real eye catcher and a good thing beaten the start prior and form lines

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

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

Key Comments On pace runners should be suited. The track is in the good range. The best bet mixes its form but should really appreciate a decent drop in grade and can return to its winning ways. Best Bet Cyclone Harmony (Bairnsdale Race 7 No. 2) Keen on the chances of Cyclone Harmony who is the class runner of the race and capable of a strong run when things fall into place for it. Barrier 6 should ensure a good run and both
