Our Rockhampton Horse Racing Tips for Wednesday’s meeting.
Moreno (Rockhampton Race 6 No. 2)
This four-year-old gelding has had seven starts this campaign for five wins and two places. He led on the rails and held on for a narrow win in the CC Lightning Open Handicap over 1000m at Townsville on28 November, then raced up to eyeball the leader at the top of the straight and kept fighting hard but was outgunned late for 0.2 length 2nd, but was 6.3 lengths ahead of the 3rd horse, over 1200m at Mackay on 19 December. He’s in great form and should win.

Each Way
Gypsy Biker (Rockhampton Race 8 No. 10):
This five-year-old Mossman gelding has two wins at this track and distance combination. He led and fought off a challenge for a 0.5 length win in a Class 6 handicap over 1300m at Rockhampton on 22 November, then took a narrow lead at the 150m but faded late for 0.75, 1.25 lengths 3rd over 1400m at Rockhampton on 18 December. He is a good each-way chance back to the 1300m.

Best Lay
Lastofthe Mohicans (Rockhampton Race 9 No. 9):
This three-year-old colt is the early favourite in this BM 55 handicap over 1600m. He came from the back half of the field to arrive in the final strides for a 0.2 length win in a maiden handicap over 1300m at Rockhampton on 22 November, then his run peaked at the 150m to finish 3 lengths 8th over 1600m at Rochhampton on 18 December. Other runners in this race finished ahead of him last time and I am prepared to risk him.

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:
