Our Randwick- Kensington Horse Racing Tips for Wednesdays meeting.
Matterhorn (Randwick Race 6 No. 5)
This five-year-old Swiss Ace gelding trained by Kris Lees has had three wins and a place from five starts. He switched inside the leader at the 300m but only battled for 2.6 lengths 5th over 1200m at Newcastle on 26 June, then led all the way in a five horse field on a heavy track for a 1.32 length win over 1250m at Canterbury on 14 July. Has won two from three this campaign and looks the leading hope.

Agrum (Randwick Race 4 No. 4):
This three-year-old Deep Field gelding trained by Matthew Smith at Warwick Farm has one win and one place from two starts. He debuted with a strong 3.66 length win over 1000m at Gosford on heavy going on 29 June, then kept chasing but found the winner too strong at the end for 0.15 length 2nd over 900m at Newcastle on 10 July. Looks up to a race in town and is worth an each-way bet.

Exotic Ruby (Randwick Race 8 No. 2):
This five-year-old Snitzel mare trained by Bjorn Baker is the early favourite in this Fillies & Mares BM 72 handicap over 1400m. She kept battling away in heavy going for 2.4 lengths 3rd over 1400m at Rosehill on 3 July, then was winded in the latter stages for 4.99 lengths 5th over 1400m at Randwick on 17 July. Has drawn the rails but hasn’t made the quinella in six starts this preparation and others offer better 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.
