Our Morphettville Horse Racing Tips for the weekend.
Annika (Morphettville Race 5 No. 4)
This four-year-old Toronado mare has three wins and four places from 14 starts. She didn’t come on as expected when she weakened to the line for 8.8 lengths 10th over 1400m at Murray Bridge on 9 January, then she drove through to the lead and was never in doubt winning by 2.4 lengths over 1250m at Morphettville Parks on 19 February. She has won previously at this track and distance and should win again.

Each Way
Narrative Star (Morphettville Race 9 No. 9):
This four-year-old mare trained by Tony McAvoy has two wins from five starts. At the end of last campaign she weakened right out in the final 300m to finish 8.4 lengths 13th over 1100m at Morphettville on 15 August before a 25 week spell. She resumed for a 0.3 length win over 1100m at Gawler on 10 February and having won second-up last campaign she looks worth an each-way bet.

Angaston (Morphettville Race 7 No. 10):
This four-year-old Ambidexter gelding is the early favourite in this BM 78 Handicap over 1400m. He took over at the 200m and went away for a 1.5 length win over 1400m at Pakenham Park on 4 February, then battled away for 0.9 length 4th over 1400m at Morphettville Parks on 13 February. With three wins from 21 starts he doesn’t win out of turn and I’m prepared to risk him here.

Horse Racing Tips: NSW Saturday 19th April 2025
Key Comments The track is in the soft range. The best bet looks very well placed and has been hard to hold out lately and will be likely well backed. Best Bet Lysander (Moruya Race 5 No. 2) Had no luck last start but the runs prior were superb and was ultra consistent leading up to that. Drawn a touch wide but has good early speed and looks placed in this to win again. Analyst: Bryce Parker

Horse Racing Tips: VIC Saturday 19th April 2025
Key Comments The track is in the good range. The best bet is yet to miss the quinella and resumes from a break. Looks very hard to beat in the feature of the day - Warracknabeal Cup (race 7). Best Bet El James (Warracknabeal Race 7 No. 5) Superb record to date with 3 wins from 4 goes. Resumes off a break and should be primed for this fresh. Untapped and can make it four in a row.
