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.

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.

Key Comments The best bet bobs up in the first. The track is in the heavy range. Best Bet Snatchreilly (Newcastle Race 1 No. 5) Good 2 efforts so far this prep. Maps really well, goes forward and Latham sticks. Slight query on heavy ground but ticks all the other boxes. Check odds on SmartB Analyst: Bryce Parker Each Way Are You Joking (Newcastle Race 6 No. 5) Unlucky last start when held up

Key Comments There are 6 races on a Good track. The rail is in the true position. Best Bet Bungarribee Lad (Barcaldine Race 6 No. 3) Bungarribee Lad kept coming but couldn’t reel in the leader for 0.5 length 2nd over 1300m at Rockhampton last start. The extra distance should suit and he rates highly. Check odds on SmartB Analyst: Jo Jackson Each Way Jukebox Lucy (Barcaldine Race 1 No. 6) Jukebox Lucy has been runner-up
Horse Racing Tips: QLD Saturday 4th May 2024
Key Comments There are 9 races and the track is rated soft. The rail is +2.5 metres from he 600m to 275m and true for the remainder. Cutaway applies. Best Bet Merchant Flyer (Beaudesert Race 1 No. 3) Merchant Flyer only just missed last start on a heavy track at Ipswich and drops to country level. Should be fitter for 2 starts and can break his maiden here. Check odds on SmartB Analyst: Jo Jackson Each Way

Key Comments Wagga Cup Day. The Gold Cup is the feature and it is race 7. The best bet is in the feature. Best Bet Fawkner Park (Wagga Riverside Race 7 No. 7) Happy to risk him with the wide draw. Last win was so dominant and you can fan wide and win on this track. Very difficult barrier but backing in Schiller. Check odds on SmartB Analyst: Bryce Parker Each Way Cruizingdafield (Wagga
