Our Scone Horse Racing Tips for Tuesdays meeting.
Battenburg (Scone Race 5 No. 1)
This four-year-old gelding trained by John Thompson at Randwick has one win and two places from six starts. He finished 7.7 lengths 6th in the Group 2 Moonee Valley Vase over 2040m on 26 October after placing in the Group 1 Spring Champion Stakes at the start before, then resumed from a 75 week spell for a 0.52 length win over 1200m at Goulburn on 8 April. Looks destined for better things and should win.

Each Way
Banju (Scone Race 7 No. 3):
Banju hasn’t missed a place in his eight starts. He resumed from a 20 week spell with a 0.93 length win over 1200m at Quirindi on 19 February, then got to the front straightening but was headed at the 200m and held on for 1.34 lengths 2nd over 1200m at Dubbo on 5 March. Drawn well in barrier 2 he looks a good each-way bet again.

Best Lay
Croesus (Scone Race 4 No. 5):
This three-year-old Panzer Division gelding trained by Paul Messara is the early favourite in this maiden handicap over 1100m. He has only had one race start where he chased steadily for 3.6 lengths 2nd over 1000m at Muswellbrook on 9 April. He doesn’t offer value in this capacity field.

Horse Racing Tips: VIC Saturday 4th May 2024
Key Comments The rail is out 8 metres. The track played well last time. Suspect with the rail out that far it may suit those on speed. The best bet looks double the price it should be. Best Bet Cadmus (Caulfield Heath Race 3 No. 1) Hard to beat. Brilliant return up a few grades than this and looks superbly treated in this with the drop in grade. Smart move with the claim and is 1/1 over this trip. Check odds on

Key Comments The track is rated soft and the rail is in true position for the 10 race meeting. Best Bet Flying D'amore (Kilcoy Race 4 No. 5) Filly from the Annabel Neasham stable who resumed for 5th over 1200m at Doomben on 17th April. Will find this easier and looks the leading chance.

Key Comments The rail is true from the 1600 to the winning post and out 3 metres for the remainder. The best bet I have priced nearly a moral and runs towards the end of the day. Best Bet Diamond City (Cranbourne Race 7 No. 9) Sat 3WNC at the end of last prep and couldn't match it with Semana. That form is huge for this and the run rated through the roof. Should be winning if ready to go. Check odds on SmartB Analyst: Bryce Parker Each Way Berkshire Breeze (Cranbourne Race 5 No. 1) Keen to multi with the best bet. Excellent return run. Will be strips fitter for it, an in form Brown rides and hard to to knock the stable right now. They are flying.

Key Comments The track is rated Good and the rail is +7 metres the entire circuit. Best Bet Stryker's Gal (Pinjarra Scarpside Race 6 No. 9) This filly has been runner-up at 2 of her 3 starts – the latest over 1413m at Pinjarra. She’s drawn nicely and should get every chance to break through for her maiden win. Check odds on SmartB Analyst: Jo Jackson Each Way Warning Shot (Pinjarra Scarpside Race 4
