Our Balaklava Racing Tips for Wednesday’s meeting.
Morialta (Balaklava Race 7 No. 2)
This four-year-old Jimmy Creed gelding trained by Stuart Padman at Murray Bridge has three wins and one place from eight starts. He finished 1.5 lengths 2nd over 1250m at Morphettville Parks on 30 July, then ran on strongly for a 3.4 length win over 1400m at Murray Bridge on 7 August. He has raced at Balaklava twice before and won both times. Should be hard to beat.

Each Way
Fight For Freedom (Balaklava Race 9 No. 7):
This six-year-old War gelding trained by Bill Bogarts has five wins and six places from 27 starts. He loomed up then faded in the final 200m to finish 5 lengths 4th over 1522m at Gawler on 18 August, then chased strongly and got there late for a 0.2 length win over 1400m at Murray Bridge on 5 September. Has had a win and fhree places from five starts this campaign and looks an excellent each-way chance.

Strike The Night (Balaklava Race 6 No. 3):
This four-year-old Night of Thunder mare trained by Phillip Stokes is the early favourite in this BM 58 handicap over 1300m. When resuming from a 19 week spell she got to the front but was headed in the final 50m for 0.8 length 4th over 1100m at Morphettville on 14 August, then weakened to the line for 5.9 lengths 7th over 1000m at Morphettville Parks on 4 September. Others look better value and I’m prepared to risk her here.

Horse Racing Tips: QLD Saturday 27th April 2024
Key Comments There are 3 Listed races. The track is rated Soft and the rail is +3 metres the entire circuit. Best Bet Exotique Miss (Eagle Farm Race 9 No. 2) She won the Listed Daybreak Lover last start to give her 2 wins from 2 starts this preparation. Even though she has the visitors draw of barrier 23 she looks good enough to win again. Check odds on SmartB Analyst: Jo Jackson Each Way Blue

Key Comments Small 7 race card. The best bet is in the last. Expecting those on speed to be suited with the rail true. Best Bet Saiko (Moruya Race 7 No. 2) Can be hard to catch but ticks boxes here. Maps well, goes well at the trip and gets conditions to suit. Doesn't win out of turn but same could be said for most of these. Check odds on SmartB Analyst: Bryce Parker Each Way Halkis (Moruya Race 2 No. 4) Has been around the mark both runs this prep. Weighted very well after the claim and any luck from the draw will be very hard to beat.

Key Comments The feature is the Listed Sheila Gwynne Classic for fillies & mares (race 6). The track is Good and the rail is +5 metres the entire circuit. Best Bet Siren Assault (Ascot Race 1 No. 1) This filly won 2 in a row before a game 5th in the Group 2 Karrakatta Plate over 1200m here on 20th April. Provided she can handle the 7 day back-up she will be too good for this field. Check odds on SmartB Analyst:

Key Comments The rail is true. The track is in the soft range. The best bet is halfway through the day and surprised about the odds on offer for it still. Needs to lug weight but is a huge hope against this field. Best Bet Arctic Legend (Tamworth Race 5 No. 2) Steps up in grade but was nothing short of brilliant when resuming from a long break. Suited to this field. Should be able to go right on with things here and
