Our Doomben Horse Racing Tips for the weekend.
The Harrovian (Doomben Race 6 No. 1)
This Fastnet Rock gelding trained by Stephen Massingham at Cairns has won eight races in a row giving him a career record of 14 starts and 4 places from 27 starts. He wound up from the top of the straight and stormed down the outside to win the Cairns Newmarket over 1400m by 1.75 lengths on 28 August, then was slowly away and got held up but still managed a narrow win in an open quality handicap over 1400m at Eagle Farm on 3 October. Will be hard to beat.

Grey Missile (Doomben Race 7 No. 7):
This six-year-old gelding trained by Toby Edmonds has 10 wins and 13 places from 35 starts. He has often carried big weights to win in North Queensland and has 5 wins at this distance. He finished last campaign with 1.25 lengths 2nd over 1300m at Gold Coast on 8 May then was spelled for 22 weeks. He resumed for 5.3 lengths 7th over 1200m at Doomben on 10 October,where he was crowded at the start, got back in running and was never a chance. He has won 4 from 5 second-up and can handle soft and heavy going so looks an excellent each-way bet.

So You Win (Doomben Race 5 No. 3):
This six-year-old So You Think gelding is the early favourite in this BM 90 Handicap over 2040m. He was well back and never really got clear when 3.7 lengths 9th in the Group 2 Shannon Stakes over 1500m at Rosehill on 26 September, then didn’t run on when switched inside runners but did have the best 800m-400m race sectional when 7.7 lengths 8th in the Spring Mile over 1600m at Randwick on 17 October 2020. He needs to lift and doesn’t represent value.

Horse Racing Tips: SA Saturday 27th April 2024
Key Comments There are two Group 1s plus 5 other Group races. The track is soft and the rail is in the true position. Best Bet Estriella (Morphettville Race 8 No. 12) This 3YO filly has won all 3 starts this campaign and is suited by the set weight conditions. Has been kept fresh and should be hard to beat.

Key Comments Small 7 race card. The best bet is in the last. Expecting those on speed to be suited with the rail true. Best Bet Saiko (Moruya Race 7 No. 2) Can be hard to catch but ticks boxes here. Maps well, goes well at the trip and gets conditions to suit. Doesn't win out of turn but same could be said for most of these. Check odds on SmartB Analyst: Bryce Parker Each Way Halkis (Moruya Race 2 No. 4) Has been around the mark both runs this prep. Weighted very well after the claim and any luck from the draw will be very hard to beat.

Key Comments The feature is the Listed Sheila Gwynne Classic for fillies & mares (race 6). The track is Good and the rail is +5 metres the entire circuit. Best Bet Siren Assault (Ascot Race 1 No. 1) This filly won 2 in a row before a game 5th in the Group 2 Karrakatta Plate over 1200m here on 20th April. Provided she can handle the 7 day back-up she will be too good for this field. Check odds on SmartB Analyst:
Horse Racing Tips: NSW Friday 26th April 2024
Key Comments The rail is true. The track is in the soft range. The best bet is halfway through the day and surprised about the odds on offer for it still. Needs to lug weight but is a huge hope against this field. Best Bet Arctic Legend (Tamworth Race 5 No. 2) Steps up in grade but was nothing short of brilliant when resuming from a long break. Suited to this field. Should be able to go right on with things here and
