Our Strathalbyn Racing Tips for Wednesday’s meeting.
Mrs Mourinho (Strathalbyn Race 7 No. 10)
This three-year-old Smart Missile filly trained by Phillip Stokes has one wins and four place from 1o starts. After running 5.6 lengths 7th over 1250m at Morphettville on 13 February she was found to be sore in the back and pelvis region and had a 12 week break. On resuming she jumped badly and was a clear last until running on strongly and making up a lot of ground late for 2.5 lengths 4th over 1050m at Balaklava on 12 May. Looks ready to win.
$2.75

Each Way
Eurogem (Strathalbyn Race 8 No. 10):
This five-year-old Eurozone mare trained at the track has five wins and six places from 39 starts. She was running 4th before fading in the straight for 6.6 lengths 9th over 1430m at Naracoorte on 2 May, then was held up from the turn to the 150m before working home solidly for 2.4 lengths 4th over 1550m at Bordertown on 19 May. Should have been closer last start and looks a good each-way chance.
$13.00
Best Lay
Pentire’s Spirit (Strathalbyn Race 4 No. 4):
This three-year-old Pentire gelding is the early favourite in this maiden plate over 1100m. He started favourite and didn’t come on as expected when 6 lengths 6th over 1200m at Balaklava on 9 December where he had a laceration on his hind pastern and was spelled for 21 weeks. On resuming he battled evenly in the straight for 4 lengths 6th over 1000m at Morphettville on May. He offers no value at the odds-on price.

Best Bet Miss Judas (Kembla Grange Race 1 No. 1) Ready to win and drops back from town for this. Form has been strong for this field and looks primed to take this out. The odds appeal and the map looks ideal. Analyst: Bryce Parker
