Enchanted Heart | (Royal Randwick Race 4 No. 3)
Happy to back this Shamus Award mare who is a deadset mudlark. The form reads two zero’s over her past two starts but she was against Group 2 and Group 1 company on firm surfaces, so she was very much out of her depth. Her first up run behind Surreal Step was very good when she was wide throughout on the heavy surface, yet still finished 1.4 lengths back in fourth. She is 0/7 at Randwick but she has excuses in most of those starts including a bleed, being lame firm tracks, and being outclassed. This is a perfect setup for her as she gets a small field so she won’t be too far off them, the best wet track rider in Jason Collett is aboard, wet track and a thin quality field. This is her’s for the taking.
Current Price: $4.20

Running Bear | (Royal Randwick Race 2 No.11)
Last time we bet in a Highway race, this girl chased out pick home. She gave our pick on the day a show but had to settle for a 1.2 length second, whilst easily holding off the rest of the field. She gets a very similar setup here whilst stepping up to the mile and there isn’t much speed in the race, so she should be able to get the gun run throughout. She actually drops 1kg from last start’s effort thanks to Reece Jone’s claim and I think she is ready to take that step back up in distance and for her to be competitive once again.
Current Price: $4.00

Key Comments The feature races are the Adelaide Guineas (race 6), Queen Elizabeth II Cup (race 7) and the South Australian Derby (race 8). The track is good and the rail is +2 metres from the 1200m to the winning post and true for the remainder.

Best Bet Typhoon Taavi (Eagle Farm Race 3 No. 3) This mare from the Tony Gollan stable has won her last 2 races by big margins. She has heaps of natural speed and gets a 3kg claim for Tahlia Fenton who has had success on her before. Leading hope. Check
Horse Racing Tips: VIC Friday 3rd May 2024
Key Comments The rail is true. The best bet is off the back of a strong second placing and looks hard to hold out launching from the good draw. Best Bet Red Red Wine (Echuca Race 8 No. 5) He has been hard to catch lately but was keen on him earlier this prep when he was smashed in the market and ran on well in a higher grade than this. Gets his chance in this field and should relish the drop in

Best Bet Profit Pocket (Ascot Race 2 No. 3) She’s won all 3 starts this campaign at Esperance, Ascot and Pinjarra At her last 2 wins she’s raced outside the leader before taking over for dominant wins. Think she can do it again. Check odds on SmartB Analyst: Jo Jackson
