Athiri (Hawkesbury Race 5 No. 5)
This four year old Lonhro mare trained by James Cummings has five wins and seven places from 19 starts. She burst between runners at the 200m and drew away for a 2.25 length win on the Listed Nudgee Quality over 1200m at Eagle Farm on 2 January, then hit the front at the 150m but was grabbed late for a close 2nd in the $1M Magic Millions fillies and mares Gold Coast race over 1300m on 16 January. She resumes here after 15 weeks and has a recent Hawkesbury trial win. Looks the superior mare in this fillies and mares race and should win

Embracer (Hawkesbury Race 6 No. 11):
This five-year-old Sebring gelding trained by Gai Waterhouse & Adrian Bott has five wins and five places from 13 starts. He was ran down late for 1, 0.8 lengths 3rd over 1100m at Rosehill on 27 June, then was winded in the latter stages when 5.5 lengths 10th over 1200m on a heavy track at Rosehill on 11 July, but had the best 800m-400m race sectional. Resumes here from a long 42 week spell, normally runs well fresh and won a recent Randwick trial by 3.8 lengths. Looks a great each-way bet.

Horse Racing Tips: VIC Friday 26th April 2024
Key Comments The rail is true. The best bet is on earlier in the day and has been brilliant in its trials. Confident on its chances at what is still a back-able price. Best Bet Night People (Cranbourne Race 2 No. 4) Has been superb in trials and looks very hard to beat here fresh. Newitt steers so expecting some front running tactics and showed plenty in the tank in a most recent trial when hitting the front early. Likeable odds and expecting

Key Comments The track is rated Good and the rail is in the true position. Best Bet Isle Eight (Mackay Race 2 No. 1) This gelding from Rockhampton has been runner-up at his last 2 starts there. He tends to get back in his races and runs on. Looks ready to win. Check odds on SmartB Analyst: Jo Jackson Each Way Cerared (Mackay Race 3 No. 6) Cerared placed here 3 starts back, then was a

Key Comments The rail is out 4 metres. The best bet was very unlucky last start when flying home and can kick the day off in fashion. Best Bet Bews (Caulfield Heath Race 1 No. 3) This 4yo Gelding has a booming turn of foot but usually requires a bit of luck in its runs. Flew to the line last start and finds a similar assignment here. May need a touch of luck getting off the rails at the right time but has

Key Comments There are 8 races for the Anzac Day meeting where the feature is the $100,000 Diggers Cup (race 7). The track is Soft and the rail is out 12 metres the entire circuit. Best Bet Dance Boss (Ascot Race 3 No. 3) Dance Boss just missed when resuming at Ascot last start. He should take improvement from that run and is the one to beat.
