Our Doomben Horse Racing Tips for Wednesday’s meeting.
Shosha (Doomben Race 4 No. 3)
This five-year-old Deep Impact mare trained by Tony Gollan has one win and one place from five starts. She hadn’t raced for 72 weeks when she led into the straight but faded in the last 100m to finish 2.2 lengths 3rd over 1400m at Gold Coast on 24 July, then won by a comfortable 1.25 lengths over 1630m at Doomben on 11 August. Looks nicely placed here and should win.

Each Way
Leadership Spill (Doomben Race 6 No. 2):
This five-year-old Top Echelon gelding trained by Lee Freedman has had four wins and five places from nine starts. He was caught wide and didn’t finish off for 7th over 1050m at Doomben on 7 August, then was a 1.25 length winner over 1100m at Beaudesert on 17 August. Fitter now, he has won at this track before and looks a good each-way bet.

Nishikori (Doomben Race 5 No. 11):
This four-year-old Real Impact gelding trained by Matthew Dunn has two wins and three places from seven starts and is the early favourite in this BM 70 handicap over 1660m. He led on the rails and fought on for a 1.8 length win over 1250m at Ballina on a heavy track on 22 July, then led at the turn but faded for 1.4 lengths 3rd over 1500m at Eagle Farm on 14 August. Blinkers come off but he hasn’t won past 1400m. Others look better value,

Key Comments 2nd day of the Scone Carnival. Plenty of features including the Woodlands Stakes (race 3), Denise Joy Stakes (race 6), Ortensia Stakes (race 7), the Dark Jewel Classic (race 8) and Luskin Star Stakes (race 9). Best Bet Jedibeel (Scone Race 10 No. 8) Lovely return effort when being backed off the map and showed off a fine turn of foot. Can go right on with things here and should get a nice tow into it from barrier 7. Hard to

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

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:
