Our Canterbury Park Horse Racing Tips for Wednesdays meeting.
Blesk (Canterbury Race 6 No. 5):
This four-year-old Savabeel gelding trained by John O’Shea has been racing well this campaign. He was held up badly at the 400m and flashed home when he got clear at the 200m too late for 0.1 length 2nd over 1400m at Kensington on 10 March, then found the front at the 150m and came away for a 1.5 length win over 1600m at Warwick Farm on 31 March. He looks well suited here and should win.

Fastconi (Canterbury Race 8 No. 16):
This three-year-old Nicconi gelding trained by Chris Waller was the emergency for this race but will get a run now that there have been a few early scratchings. Last campaign he finished 1.5 lengths 2nd over 1200m at Rosehill on 20 November, then was not fully tested when 2.5 lengths 7th over 1300m at Warwick Farm on 9 December. He resumes from a 19 week spell following gelding and should be fit after two trials. Is worth an each-way bet.

Avion Fury (Canterbury Race 7 No. 6):
This four-year-old More Than Ready gelding is the early favourite in this BM 72 handicap over 1900m. He finished 3.6 lengths 7th in the Group 3 Sky High Stakes over 2000m at Rosehill on 13 March, then made some ground from well back to finish 5.9 lengths 5th in the Group 3 Neville Sellwood over 2000m at Rosehill on 3 April. He is down in grade but offers no value at the short price.

Horse Racing Tips: VIC Saturday 4th May 2024
Key Comments The rail is true. The track is in the soft range. This track usually favours those on speed. Best Bet Final Atom (Horsham Race 7 No. 1) Should land up on speed and prove hard to catch. Walters steers from the good draw and she is 3 rides aboard for 2 seconds. Hard to beat. Check odds on SmartB Analyst: Bryce Parker Each Way Bubble Palace (Horsham Race 6 No. 5) Should

Key Comments There are 6 races on a Good track. The rail is in the true position. Best Bet Bungarribee Lad (Barcaldine Race 6 No. 3) Bungarribee Lad kept coming but couldn’t reel in the leader for 0.5 length 2nd over 1300m at Rockhampton last start. The extra distance should suit and he rates highly. Check odds on SmartB Analyst: Jo Jackson Each Way Jukebox Lucy (Barcaldine Race 1 No. 6) Jukebox Lucy has been runner-up
