Our Bathurst Horse Racing Tips for Tuesdays meeting.
Smuggler’s Bay (Bathurst Race 5 No. 2)
This three-year-old Squamosa gelding trained by Ron Weston & John Nisbet at Canberra is unbeaten in his two runs. On debut he led all the way for an easy 2.55 length win in a maiden plate over 1000m at Wagga on 6 May, then led all the way again for a 1.52 length win in a class 1 handicap over 1000m at Albury on 24 May. Is the main chance again and will be hard to beat.

Khitaamy (Bathurst Race 6 No. 6):
This six-year-old Delago Deluxe gelding trained by Carmen Murnane at Gosford has two wins and 13 places from 38 starts. Following a six week let-up he plugged home for 6.56 lengths 7th over 1000m at Port Macquarie on 26 April, then hit the front at the 200m but was outgunned in the final 75m for 0.51 length 2nd over 1000m at Tamworth on 17 May. Likely to race on the speed and is a good each-way chance again.

Telfer (Bathurst Race 7 No. 4):
This four-year-old Dalakhani gelding trained by Jeff Englebrecht at Wyong is the early favourite in this BM 58 handicap over 1800m. He crossed over to lead on the rails then kicked and kept going for a 1.55 length win on a heavy track over 1600m at Taree on 11 May, then hit the front at the top of the striaght but was outgunned in the final 100m for 2.72 lengths 5th over 1600m at Taree on 24 May. He is up in distance and has drawn wide and offers no value here.

Horse Racing Tips: SA Friday 25th April 2025
Key Comments There are 8 races for ANZAC Day. The track is rated good and the rail is +5 metres from the 950m to the 450m and is +3 metres for the remainder of the course. Best Bet Extremely Wicked (Balaklava Race 1 No. 3) Last preparation she was placed over 1000m at Cranbourne when first-up. She resumes from a long 41 week spell and won a recent trial here by over 14 lengths on 17th April. Looks hard to beat.

Key Comments ANZAC day races at Beaudesert is a long-held tradition. The track is rated soft and the rail is +1.5 metres from the 600m to 225m and a cutaway applies. Best Bet Synergy In Motion (Beaudesert Race 7 No. 6) Led throughout to win by over 5 lengths over 1540m at Gold Coast Poly last start. He has the speed to over come his wide draw and can make it back-to-back wins. Analyst: Jo Jackson
Horse Racing Tips: ACT Saturday 26th April 2025
Key Comments A small 6 race card takes place. The track is in the good range. The highlight is the Tab Federal Handicap (race 6). Best Bet Arthur The Great (Canberra Race 6 No. 3) He is as honest as they come and is having a great prep. Should be able to roll to the lead and prove very tough to stave off in this highly suitable affair. Analyst: Bryce Parker Each Way
Horse Racing Tips: VIC Saturday 26th April 2025
Key Comments The track is in the good range. The best bet has some good form out of its most recent race and looks very tough to stave off. Best Bet Glamour Ana (Horsham Race 2 No. 10) Good run last time out placing in a handy field where the horse who came second has won again since. Looks well placed against these and loves these conditions. Hard to beat. Analyst: Bryce Parker
