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.

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

Key Comments 10 race program. The features include the Hawkesbury Gold Rush (race 5), Hawkesbury Crown (race 6), Hawkesbury Guineas (race 7), Hawkesbury Gold Cup (race 8). Best Bet Gentileschi (Hawkesbury Race 3 No. 9) Has stacks of upside and a lot to like about the past 2 wins. Rises in grade but looks a promising type that can notch up another win here.

Key Comments The features are the Dalrello Stakes (race 6), Victory Stakes (race 8) and the Queensland Guineas (race 9). The track is soft and the rail is +7 metres the entire circuit. Best Bet Typhoon Taavi (Eagle Farm Race 3 No. 3) This mare from the Tony Gollan stable has won her last 2 races by big margins. She has heaps of natural speed and gets a 3kg claim for Tahlia Fenton who has had success on her before. Leading hope. Check

Key Comments The rail is true. The best bet is off the back of a strong second placing and looks hard to hold out launching from the good draw. Best Bet Red Red Wine (Echuca Race 8 No. 5) He has been hard to catch lately but was keen on him earlier this prep when he was smashed in the market and ran on well in a higher grade than this. Gets his chance in this field and should relish the drop in
