Our Doomben Horse Racing Tips for Wednesday’s meeting.
Single Memo (Doomben Race 5 No. 9)
This three-year-old Not a Single Doubt filly trained by Steven O’Dea & Matthew Hoysted has one win and one place from two starts. On debut she took over at the 150m and drew away for an easy 2.3 length win over 1000m at Eagle Farm, then she fought on well for 0.2 length 2nd over 1000m at Sunshine Coast on 24 September. Has had a seven week let-up and looks a winning chance.

Each Way
Carribean King (Doomben Race 7 No. 6):
This three-year-old Sweynesse gelding trained by Stuart Kendrick has two wins and a place from five starts. At the end of last campaign he ran on for 2.1 lengths 4th on a soft track over 1000m at Sunshine Coast on 11 July. Resuming from a 16 week spell he wound up steadily for 0.2 length 2nd over 1000m at Sunshine Coast on 5 November. Can handle soft going and looks a great each-way chance.

Best Lay
Smart Star Prince (Doomben Race 8 No. 15):
This four-year-old Smart Missile gelding trained by David Vandyke is the early favourite in this BM 68 handicap over 1350m. He was a 0.2 length winner over a maiden handicap over 1300m at Sunshine Coast on 12 September, then was an easy 3 length winner of a Class 1 handicap over 1400m at Gold Coast on 2 October. He has drawn wide and I’m happy to risk him here.

Horse Racing Tips: ACT Friday 17th May 2024
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.

Horse Racing Tips: SA Friday 17th May 2024
Key Comments The dirt track is rated Good and the rail is in the true position. Sairyn Fawke and Caitlin Tootell both have some good rides. Best Bet Shalaga (Port Augusta Race 4 No. 1) Shalaga has won his last 2 races (both at this track and distance) and won the latest by 6.5 lengths. Carries 0.5 kg more than last outing and Caitlin Tootell retains the ride. Top pick. Check odds on SmartB Analyst: Jo Jackson
Horse Racing Tips: WA Friday 17th May 2024
Key Comments The track is rated Soft 5 and the rail is in the true position. Best Bet Phence Sitter (Albany Race 4 No. 7) Resumed after 24 weeks to place at this track and trip. Should take improvement from that run and be very competitive. Check odds on SmartB Analyst: Jo Jackson Each Way Sir Bear A Lot (Albany Race 5 No. 3) Sir Bear A Lot has been in the trifecta at all 8
Horse Racing Tips: VIC Friday 17th May 2024
Key Comments The rail is out 9 metres the entire way. The best bet comes up in the last race of the day and is progressive enough to go right on with things. Best Bet Hypeman (Cranbourne Race 8 No. 6) Won nicely breaking maiden and looks progressive enough to go on with things here. Can bounce to the front from barrier 1 and looks a suitable race for Ethan Brown to take out. Check odds on SmartB Analyst: Bryce Parker
