Our Randwick Horse Racing Tips for the weekend.
Masked Crusader (Randwick Race 9 No. 2)
This Toronado gelding has 3 wins and a place from his 5 starts. He won by 3 lengths over 1200m at Randwick on 9 May which was his third win in a row. After a 14 week break he resumed for 0.4 length 2nd over 1100m at Randwick on a heavy track and returned with blood present in one nostril. He will appreciate the firm going and has a 2kg claim. Should win.

Pace Stick (Randwick Race 2 No. 8):
This gelding from Coffs Harbour has two wins and two places from 5 starts. He was slowly away and worked over to lead but was grabbed late for 0.36 lengths 2nd over 1000m at Coffs Harbour on 6 August, then he led and kept going for a 1.01 length win over 1006m at Grafton on 17 August. He has drawn barrier 14 but has the pace to overcome that and looks a nice each-way bet.

Dreamforce (Randwick Race 8 No. 1):
This eight-year-old Fastnet Rock gelding is the early favourite in the Group 2 Tramway Stakes over 1400m. He won this race last year and is back to defend his title.He has a great record at Randwick but faded to finish 17 lengths off the winner when resuming in the Group 1 Winx Stakes at this track and distance on 22 August. He has great statistics but there are other very talented runners in this race and he doesn’t represent value.

Horse Racing Tips: VIC Saturday 18th May 2024
Key Comments The rail is out 4 metres. The feature races include the Straight Six (race 7) and the Andrew Ramsden (race 8). The best bet looks well placed to bounce back and very hard to beat if finding its old form. Best Bet Niance (Flemington Race 3 No. 7) Had excuses last start when bungling the jump. Looks really hard to beat if finding its old form and there was so much to like about the wins prior. Looks way over the

Key Comments The rail is out 4 metres. The best bet comes up in the second race and is a very progressive type that can continue on its winning spree. Best Bet Affluential (Werribee Race 2 No. 4) Has been on a winning spree and showing no signs of slowing down. Should land in a beautiful spot from the draw and no reason to suggest it can't win again on the way to better races. Check odds on SmartB Analyst:

Key Comments The rail is true. Racing on the synthetic. The best bet comes up in the first and just needs even luck from the barrier to be winning. Best Bet Howgoodisvegas (Canberra Race 1 No. 1) 2 wins on the trot and both of them have been convincing. Should be able to slide forward from the wide draw and make It three in a row.
