Our Eagle Farm Horse Racing Tips for the weekend.
Junction (Eagle Farm Race 7 No. 5)
This six-year-old Real Saga gelding trained by Mark Currie at Toowoomba has eight wins and 10 places from 35 starts. He didn’t seem to like the heavy going when he finished 3.8 lengths 7th in the Listed Australian Turf Club Trophy over 1400m at the Gold Coast on 13 March, then was going well until hampered at the 150m and getting swamped late for 0.7 length 4th over 1400m at Eagle Farm on 3 April. He drops 3kg from that run and should fight out the finish.

Each Way
Bonaparte (Eagle Farm Race 9 No. 6):
This five-year-old Pierro gelding has three wins and eight places from 18 starts and has won two of five starts this campaign. He led into the straight but was run down late for 0.5 length 2nd over 1650m at Doomben on 3 March, then faded late for 2.05 lengths 4th over 1600m at Eagle Farm on 20 March. He comes back to 1400m here and is worth an each-way bet.

Kylease (Eagle Farm Race 8 No. 5):
This five-year-old Choisir mare is the early favourite in the Listed Ascot Quality Handicap over 1000m. She didn’t handle the heavy track when 10.9 lengths 7th over 1100m at Gold Coast on 13 March, then hit the front at the 250m but was run down late for 0.3 length 2nd over 1000m at Eagle Farm on 3 April. This happened at her previous run over 1000m at Eagle Farm and I am prepared to risk her here.

Horse Racing Tips: Happy Valley, Wednesday 1st May 2024
Key Comments There is a 9-race program under the lights at Happy Valley. The rail is back to the A position for the meeting, and there is heavy rain forecast in the lead-up so the track could deteriorate. The first race is at 6.40pm Hong Kong time which is 8.40pm AEST. Best Bet Copartner Prance (Happy Valley Race 7 No. 6) Copartner Prance has won his last 2 at this track and distance in Class 4 grade. Steps up to Class 3 here

Key Comments The rail is true. Expecting a fair track. The best bet is in the last of the day but is dual nommed so keep an eye on where it heads.
