Our Flemington Horse Racing Tips for Saturday’s meeting.
Itsourtime (Flemington Race 7 No. 10)
Think the feature race on the card sets up really well for the lightly raced four year old It’sourtime. He’s on the quick back up after a good third at Caulfield over 1100m last week. Gets back to 1200m and to the straight track where he excels and drops from 59.5kg to 54kg.

Tycoon Bec (Flemington Race 8 No. 11):
Tycoon Bec has three wins and a placing from six starts. She ran well first up at Geelong, was in the wrong part of the track second up at Pakenham, then got too far back last time but was really strong through the line. Should be close to peak fitness now fourth up and can settle much closer in the run here for Tatum Buller who takes 3kg off with her claim.

Best Lay
Victory Bay (Flemington Race 2 No. 7):
Victory Bay is currently rated a $4.6 chance in race two on the program. I thought she had every chance up on speed at Caulfield last start and the form around her debut win isn’t overly strong. Runs into some progressive three year olds here. Does keep Kah but I have to be against her at the current price.
