Our Eagle Farm Horse Racing Tips for the weekend.
Ayrton (Eagle Farm Race 3 No. 2)
This three-year-old Iffraaj gelding trained by Mick Price has three wins and a place from four starts. He won both starts in his first campaign by big margins, then resumed from a 19 week spell with a 1.25 length win over 1200m at Caulfield. Last start he was sent out as the odds-on favourite but couldn’t reel in the leader and finished 0.2 length 2nd over 1400m at Eagle Farm on 29 May. Drawn the rails and will be very hard to beat.

Each Way
Spirit Ridge (Eagle Farm Race 5 No. 4):
This six-year-old Nathaniel gelding trained by Mark Newnham has six wins and six places from 18 starts. He kept coming in the last 200m to share second place in the Listed Wagga Cup over 2000m on 7 May, then he ran on best for a narrow win in the Group 3 Premier’s Cup over 2400m at Eagle Farm on 29 May. He will go well over the 2200m and is worth an each-way bet.

Mister Sea Wolf (Eagle Farm Race 2 No. 2):
This nine-year-old gelding is the early favourite in The Wayne Wilson WFA over 1600m. He chased hard for 3.5 lengths 2nd in the G3 Doncaster Prelude over 1500m on 3 April, then finished 5.25 lengths 7th in the G2 A.D. Hollindale Stakes over 1800m on 8 May. Other runners have better recent form and I’m willing to risk him here.

Key Comments The rail is true. The track is in the soft range. This track usually favours those on speed. Best Bet Final Atom (Horsham Race 7 No. 1) Should land up on speed and prove hard to catch.

Key Comments The best bet bobs up in the first. The track is in the heavy range. Best Bet Snatchreilly (Newcastle Race 1 No. 5) Good 2 efforts so far this prep. Maps really well, goes forward and Latham sticks. Slight query on heavy ground but ticks all the other boxes.

Key Comments The feature races are the Adelaide Guineas (race 6), Queen Elizabeth II Cup (race 7) and the South Australian Derby (race 8). The track is good and the rail is +2 metres from the 1200m to the winning post and true for the remainder. Best Bet The Map (Morphettville Race 7 No. 2) She’s has had a 7 week let-up after just missing in the Adelaide Cup and comes off a trial win at Balaklava. Going really well this campaign and
