Best Bets
Our Canterbury Park Horse Racing Tips for Wednesdays meeting.
Ibaraki (Canterbury Race 2 No. 2):
Normally I wouldn’t pick an unraced horse as a best bet, but this three-year-old Darci Brahma gelding trained by Team Hawkes has won both his trials in convincing fashion. He was a 2.8 length winner of a 3YO+ Maiden trial at Rosehill back in December, then won by almost a length in a 900m trial at Rosehill on 4 June where he didn’t look stretched. If he brings his trial form to the races he will win.

Montserrat (Canterbury Race 7 No. 2):
This four-year-old Not A Single Doubt gelding trained by Mark Newnham has three wins and eight place from 17 starts. He was no match for the winner when headed at the 220m but battled on okay for 3.35, 0.04 lengths 3rd over 1600m at Gosford on 8 May, then was headed at the 150m and battled on for 1.8 lengths 2nd over 1900m at Canterbury on 26 May. Both those runs were on soft tracks. He goes down in weight here and is a nice place chance again.

Best Lay
Acrophobic (Canterbury Race 6 No. 1):
This three-year-old Dissident gelding is the early favourite in this BM 72 handicap over 1550m. He was winded in the latter stages when 4.2 lengths 8th in the Group 3 Hawkesbury Guineas over 1400m on 1 May, then kept chasing but couldn’t get past the winner when 0.24 lengths 2nd over 1550m at Kensington on 19 May. He doesn’t offer value at the current price.

Key Comments The feature race is the Tab Federal Handicap (race 6) and is also the same race the best bet bobs up in who is due for a change of luck and may get that here. Best Bet Devine Miss (Canberra Race 6 No. 3) Hasn't had much luck this prep and would love to see a more on speed and prominent ride this time around. Efforts have been excellent to date and has been hitting the line hard. This race is

Key Comments Expect those on speed to be suited. The track is in the good range. The best bet is in the last of the day and has strong claims. Best Bet Frawley (Geelong Race 9 No. 5) Maps a little sticky but looks well placed to return to the winners enclosure. The run behind Estirella 2 back is more than good enough for this field and still has plenty of scope and upside to be taking out a race like this.
Horse Racing Tips: SA Wednesday 4th December 2024
Key Comments There are 7 races on a good track where the rail is +1 metre from the 1850m to the 1550m, +3 metres from the 950m to the 450m and true for the remainder. This is the same rail position as the last meeting on 20th November. Best Bet Whine For Wine (Balaklava Race 3 No. 9) Whine For Wine ran 4th over 1050m at Morphettville at her only start. She’s had a 13 week break since then and looks to have
