Our Hobart Racing Tips for Sundays meeting.
The main races is the $100,000 Elwick Stakes (Race 5).
Hela (Hobart Race 6 No. 3)
This three-year-old Night Of Thunder filly trained by Scott Brunton is unbeaten in three starts. She sat outside the leader to the turn and did best in the straight for a 1.75 length win over 1200m at Launceston on 12 December, then led and out-booted then for a length win over 1400m at Launceston on 8 January. She should handle the extra distance and remain unbeaten.

Banca Nip (Hobart Race 8 No. 3):
This six-year-old Ustinov gelding has had 16 starts for four wins and four places, and has won two of his last four starts. He kept coming for a 0.2 length win over 1650m at Devonport Tapeta Synthetic on 20 December, then peaked on his run for 2.75 lengths 2nd over 1880m at Devonport Tapeta Synthetic on 11 January. He is going well this campaign and is worth an each-way bet.

Best Lay
I’m A Floozy (Hobart Race 4 No. 4):
This four-year-old Toorak Toff mare is the early favourite in this Class 1 handicap over 1100m. She worked home strongly to just miss for 0.1 length 2nd over 1009m at Devonport Tapeta Synthetic on 6 January, then was leading before being outsprinted to the line and finishing 1.25 lengths 4th over 1220m at Launceston on 16 January. With only one win from 11 starts she offers no value here.

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 The best bet bobs up in the first. The track is in the heavy range. Best Bet Snatchreilly (Newcastle Race 1 No. 5) Good 2 efforts so far this prep. Maps really well, goes forward and Latham sticks. Slight query on heavy ground but ticks all the other boxes. Check odds on SmartB Analyst: Bryce Parker Each Way Are You Joking (Newcastle Race 6 No. 5) Unlucky last start when held up

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
Horse Racing Tips: QLD Saturday 4th May 2024
Key Comments There are 9 races and the track is rated soft. The rail is +2.5 metres from he 600m to 275m and true for the remainder. Cutaway applies. Best Bet Merchant Flyer (Beaudesert Race 1 No. 3) Merchant Flyer only just missed last start on a heavy track at Ipswich and drops to country level. Should be fitter for 2 starts and can break his maiden here. Check odds on SmartB Analyst: Jo Jackson Each Way
