Lights of Broadway | (Balaklava Race 1 No. 10)
I have been with this girl over her last two runs where she ran two-second placings behind Lakehurst and Belcrest Belle. She steps up to the mile for the first time which shouldn’t pose an issue and gets some strong hands aboard in Jason Holder. Despite drawing barrier seven, I have her mapped off the rail and three pairs back, so she should get every chance. Track conditions in my opinion is the only thing that can dampen her chances.
Current Price: $2.10

Belcrest Belle | (Balaklava Race 4 No.7)
This girl has run some nice races over her last three despite drawing gates 8, 7, and 13. Two runs back she was third to Lakehurst before she led the entire way from the widest gate to salute by 0.2 of a length. She steps up into Class 1 company after breaking her maiden status last time out and the draw is favourable for the first time in weeks. I still think she has slight improvement to come, so I expect her to be right in the finish.
Current Price: $4.60

Key Comments The feature is the $200,000 Group 3 Northam Stakes over 1300m (race 6). The track is rated Soft 5 and the rail is +5 metres the entire circuit. Best Bet Deep Discretion (Northam Race 1 No. 9) She ran 3rd at Pinjarra last outing and is on the improve. Shoudn’t be a maiden much longer.

Horse Racing Tips: TAS Sunday 5th May 2024
Key Comments The track is a synthetic tapeta-based surface and weather has minimal effect on how it races. The rail remains in the true position. As a general rule, runners who land in the front half of the field are suited at this track, with a slight advantage to those who land forward of midfield and can find a cart into the race from the wider lanes in the straight.

Key Comments The best bet is in the first and was explosive on debut. Expecting all to have their chance on this track that usually plays fair. Best Bet What A Cross (Sale Race 1 No. 10) Big finale on debut and looms at likeable odds here. Was smacked in betting then and almost pulled off the plunge when flying to the line. Looks a huge chance here. Check odds on SmartB Analyst: Bryce Parker
