Our Ipswich Horse Racing Tips for Wednesday’s meeting.
Purrfect Deal (Ipswich Race 5 No. 8)
This four-year-old Dundeel mare has won two of her three starts. She was tightened at the 100m but kept grinding away for 4.1 lengths 4th over 1300m at Sunshine Coast on 27 September, then took over at the 150m and raced away for an impressive 4.5 length win in a fillies and mares plate over 1400m at Gold Coast on 10 October. She should win again.

Each Way
Smokey Diamond (Ipswich Race 4 No. 3):
This six-year-old Top Echelon gelding went well over a similar distance last start. He was last at the turn and made steady ground for 4.1 lengths 6th in the Dalby Cup open handicap over 1400m on 19 September, then was held up and not fully tested when he finished 0.1 length, a length 3rd over 1690m at Ipswich on 7 October. He gets a chance to go better thistime and is worth an each-way bet.

Best Lay
Abdicating (Ipswich Race 8 No. 10):
This four-year-old gelding trained by Damien Batters at Sunshine Coast is the early favourite in this BM65 handicap over 1200m for colt, geldings and entires. He hung out in the straight and fought on for 2.3 lengths, 0.1 length 3rd over 1000m at Sunshine Coast on 25 September, then chased for 1.5 lengths 2nd over 1000m at Sunshine Coast on 9 October. This is his first try at the distance

Horse Racing Tips: VIC Tuesday 17th September 2024
Key Comments The track is in the soft range. Focusing on runners that are on speed as that is how the track typically plays. The best bet was narrowly denied last start and can notch up another career win in a very suitable race. Best Bet Privacy Tour (Wodonga Race 6 No. 6) Narrowly denied last run and the form has stood up since. While this is a rise in grade, on paper this race is no harder. Egan takes over and drops

Key Comments 7 race card takes place. The best bet comes up in the first and has been subject to plenty of market support and should take beating off the back of a strong run fresh. Best Bet Tycoon Jenny (Corowa Race 7 No. 1) She has been hard to catch lately but form has been back on track and ticks all the boxes for this. Her best is good enough, maps for a good run and is in okay at the weights

Key Comments Racing on a soft track. The best bet comes up later on in the day and should appreciate the drop in grade. It is still looming around healthy odds at time of typing. Best Bet Great Siege (Tamworth Race 6 No. 5) Well placed to be taking this out. Has to lump the weight but drops back in grade off a commendable return on the back of a freshen up. Has won on this track and looks well placed in this

Key Comments Expecting on pace runners to be suited on this track. Running on an expected heavy deck so looking towards runners that will handle the conditions. Best Bet Three Grand (Hamilton Race 8 No. 10) Tricky card to sort with plenty of chances. Three Grand has been around the mark this prep. Unknown on a heavy deck but proven down to soft footing, Allen hops back aboard and he is 1/1 when steering. Check odds on SmartB Analyst: Bryce Parker
