Flight Deck | (Balaklava Race 3 No. 8)
This isn’t a deep benchmark 62 and this bloke has been taking on much better horses over his last three runs. Three runs back he stepped into open class straight from his maiden win where he flew home for fourth behind the Saturday class Defining and Hopon Harry. Two runs back he went into the Group 3 Chairman’s Stakes where he was majorly outclassed before dropping back slightly to Listed grade where he ran credibly, only fourth lengths off the promising Illation. Back into benchmark 62 grade with a beautiful draw and at a mile, gee he looks well placed.
Current Price: $3.70

Lights of Broadway | (Balaklava Race 5 No.14)
We were on her last start where she was good behind Lakehurst on a soft track at Gawler. She would have improved nicely from that run and coming into this race third-up with another favourable draw is nothing but a positive. I expect her to map well once again and Teagan Vooham would have taken a good note on how to ride this girl last start and will no doubt be savouring the chance to ride her again, but this time at 1400m. Full-field but it’s a long tail, she should get her chance.
Current Price: $3.50

Key Comments The track is rated Soft and the rail is +9.5 metres the entire circuit. Best Bet Mannerheim (Ipswich Race 6 No. 6) He didn’t haven’t the best of luck last start when he got a heavy bump at the start and was tightened in the final stages, but he still managed to place. He has the speed to overcome drawing the widest barrier and rates highly. Check odds on SmartB Analyst: Jo Jackson
Horse Racing Tips: VIC Wednesday 1st May 2024
Key Comments The 'Bool carnival continues and the feature on the card is the Wangoom Handicap (race 8). Tricky card to sort out but going for the best bet in the feature who is 3/3 on this track and class can come to the fore. Best Bet Tuvalu (Warrnambool Race 8 No. 1) He is 3/3 on this track and form last prep reads well against these including a length loss behind Pinstriped, a length loss behind Alligator Blood and half a length
