Our Eagle Farm Horse Racing Tips for Wednesday’s meeting.
Golden Mean (Eagle Farm Race 3 No. 5)
This five-year-old mare has won 5 of her 9 starts. She resumed after 40 weeks off the track for a 0.2 length win over 1200m at Ipswich on 19 August where she survived a protest, then she ran on best to win by a narrow margin over 1200m at Doomben on 5 September. She is looking for a hat-trick here and looks well-placed.

Each Way
Pure Deal (Eagle Farm Race 6 No. 5):
This three-year-old Dundeel gelding didn’t win or place at this first four starts, but once he was stepped up to the 1800m distance he won two in a row. He ran on strongly at the end to win by 0.8 length over 1800m at Sunshine Coast on 23 August, then split the leaders at the 200m and edged ahed late for a 0.4 length win over 1800m at Sunshine Coast on 6 September. He looks worth an each-way bet.

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
Horse Racing Tips: NSW Friday 17th May 2024
Key Comments The feature race is the Scone Cup (race 8). The rail is in the true position. The best bet looks a sure thing. Best Bet La Pleine Lune (Scone Race 5 No. 3) Absolutely romped in on debut. Concede it was in the right part of the track when the rail as hot however the race rated well, it had plenty more to give and the runner up has walked in since. Looks the good thing of all good things.
