Our Doomben Horse Racing Tips for the weekend.
Platinum Euros (Doomben Race 3 No. 10)
This five-year-old Eurozone gelding trained by Natalie McCall has four wins and a place from six starts. He won by 3 lengths over 1000m at Sunshine Coast on 3 January, then won by 3 lengths over 1000m at Sunshine Coast on 12 March. Resumes from a 29 week break and has been trialling well. Can win first-up and will be hard to beat

Each Way
Irish Sequel (Doomben Race 4 No. 9):
This six -year-old Invincible Spirit gelding trained by Chris Waller has two wins and four places from 15 starts. Resuming after a 19 week spell he did his best work late when 0.6 lengths 3rd over 1400m at Eagle Farm on 4 September, then fought on for 1.5 lengths 5th over 1800m at Gold Coast on 18 September. He should get a soft run from barrier 2 and looks a good each-way chance.

Best Lay
Spaceboy (Doomben Race 8 No. 5):
This five-year-old Deep Field gelding trained by Gary Portelli is the early favourite in this Open Quality Handicap over 1050m. He was leading straightening but was run down late for 0.4 length 2nd over 1100m at Randwick on 31 July, then led early but finished 3.5 lengths 9th in the Group 3 The Heath 1100 over 1100m at Caulfield on 28 August. That was a little disappointing and I’m prepared to risk him here.

Horse Racing Tips: NSW Saturday 4th May 2024
Key Comments 10 race program. The features include the Hawkesbury Gold Rush (race 5), Hawkesbury Crown (race 6), Hawkesbury Guineas (race 7), Hawkesbury Gold Cup (race 8). Best Bet Gentileschi (Hawkesbury Race 3 No. 9) Has stacks of upside and a lot to like about the past 2 wins. Rises in grade but looks a promising type that can notch up another win here.

Key Comments The rail is true. The best bet is off the back of a strong second placing and looks hard to hold out launching from the good draw. Best Bet Red Red Wine (Echuca Race 8 No. 5) He has been hard to catch lately but was keen on him earlier this prep when he was smashed in the market and ran on well in a higher grade than this. Gets his chance in this field and should relish the drop in
Horse Racing Tips: WA Saturday 4th May 2024
Key Comments The feature is the Group 3 WA Sires' Produce Stakes (race 7). The track is rated Soft and the rail is +7 metres the entire circuit. Best Bet Profit Pocket (Ascot Race 2 No. 3) She’s won all 3 starts this campaign at Esperance, Ascot and Pinjarra At her last 2 wins she’s raced outside the leader before taking over for dominant wins. Think she can do it again. Check odds on SmartB Analyst: Jo Jackson
Horse Racing Tips: VIC Saturday 4th May 2024
Key Comments The rail is out 8 metres. The track played well last time. Suspect with the rail out that far it may suit those on speed. The best bet looks double the price it should be. Best Bet Cadmus (Caulfield Heath Race 3 No. 1) Hard to beat. Brilliant return up a few grades than this and looks superbly treated in this with the drop in grade. Smart move with the claim and is 1/1 over this trip. Check odds on
