Our Eagle Farm Horse Racing Tips for the weekend.
Irish Sequel (Eagle Farm Race 3 No. 2)
This six-year-old Invincible Spirit gelding trained by Chris Waller has three wins and four places from 16 starts. He fought on for 1.5 lengths 5th over 1800m at Gold Coast on 18 September, then took over at the 100m and won by 1.25 lengths over 2030m on a soft track at Doomben on 2 October. Jim Byrne sticks with him and he is the leading hope.

Lyrical Girl (Eagle Farm Race 10 No. 9):
This five-year-old Your Song mare trained by Tony Gollan has four wins and six places from 12 starts. She resumed from a 30 week spell to run 4 lengths 3rd over 1050m at Doomben on 28 August, then led early and was headed at the 150m to run one length 3rd over 1000m at Toowoomba on 25 September. Goes well on a softer track and looks a good each-way chance again.

Salateen (Eagle Farm Race 4 No. 9):
This four-year-old I Am Invincible mare trained by Tony Gollan is the early favourite in this Fillies & Mares BM 75 Handicap over 1200m. At the end of last campaign she was beaten at the 250m and was badly winded to finish 8.4 lengths 7th over 1300m at Warwick Farm on heavy going on 12 May, and was spelled for 19 weeks. She resumed with a powerful 3.25 win over 1200m at Doomben on 26 September. Didn’t fire second-up last campaign, and offers no value at the short price.

Horse Racing Tips: SA Saturday 18th May 2024
Key Comments There are 9 races on the Parks circuit. The track is rated good and the rail is +3 metres from the 1000m -to the winning post and true for the remainder. Best Bet Easy Campese (Morphettville Race 3 No. 4) Easy Campese has been runner-up at his last 3 races and is ready to win. With the 2kg claim for Alana Livesay he will only carry 52.5 kg down from 59kg last start and hopefully that will make all the difference.

Key Comments The rail is out 4 metres. The feature races include the Straight Six (race 7) and the Andrew Ramsden (race 8). The best bet looks well placed to bounce back and very hard to beat if finding its old form. Best Bet Niance (Flemington Race 3 No. 7) Had excuses last start when bungling the jump. Looks really hard to beat if finding its old form and there was so much to like about the wins prior. Looks way over the
Horse Racing Tips: VIC Friday 17th May 2024
Key Comments The rail is out 4 metres. The best bet comes up in the second race and is a very progressive type that can continue on its winning spree. Best Bet Affluential (Werribee Race 2 No. 4) Has been on a winning spree and showing no signs of slowing down. Should land in a beautiful spot from the draw and no reason to suggest it can't win again on the way to better races. Check odds on SmartB Analyst:

Key Comments The rail is true. Racing on the synthetic. The best bet comes up in the first and just needs even luck from the barrier to be winning. Best Bet Howgoodisvegas (Canberra Race 1 No. 1) 2 wins on the trot and both of them have been convincing. Should be able to slide forward from the wide draw and make It three in a row.
