Our Devonport Horse Racing Tips for Sunday.
Rail: True (Previously True)
Surface: All-Weather Turf (Synthetic)
Notes: The Devonport track has raced pretty well all season as we head into the last meeting. It should be relatively fair, but it’s worth noting that the rail hasn’t been a great place to be in recent times with wear and tear. Any notable bias will largely be tempo dependent. As this is a synthetic tapeta-based surface, weather has minimal effect on how it races.
As a general rule, runners who land in the front half of the field are suited at this track, with a slight advantage to those who land forward of midfield and can find a cart into the race from the wider lanes in the straight.
Jockeys to follow:
– Brendon McCoull: 22.1%SR @ 9.6% POT @ Devonport
– Erica Byrne-Burke: 18.5%SR @ 5.4% POT @ Devonport
Trainers to follow:
– Glenn Stevenson: 15.9% SR @ 8.1% POT @ Devonport
– Nigel Schuuring: Career 13.8%SR @ 22.1% POT @ Devonport
Key Comments
Best Bet
Drinks At Vista (Devonport Race 4 No. 1):
Ex- Danny O’Brien horse who’s first up in TAS. Has landed in the astute Adam Trinder camp and senior rider Brendon McCoull jumps straight on – which is a strong push in itself. Drawn the pole she should get a kind run behind the speed and be looking to run over the top of them late. This is much easier than the races she’s contested in Victoria and I hope she can show her class edge here.
$5.00/2.00 (strong bet on a 2×3 basis)
Best Each Way
Gee Gee Plane (Devonport Race 5 No. 2):
After scratchings this race has lost a lot of speed, leaving GEE GEE PLANE to assume control. He comes out of a strong race behind some in-form gallopers, and was 1st up off a freshen there. Loves the track and has ran well enough at this trip previously, looks an easy bet to have up on-speed.
$10.00/3.00 (backing on a 1×3 each-way basis)
Best Lay
Ozturk (Devonport Race 2 No. 9):
Ran well last start at the 1450m and got pipped late. Looks very short in an even race, not sure jumping back in trip is a positive for a mare who looks very one-paced. Think she should be near twice the price he is early in betting.

Horse Racing Tips: VIC Tuesday 15th October 2024
Key Comments Expecting on pace runners to be suited. The best bet is a progressive type coming off a large maiden win and can go right on with things in a suitable step up in grade. Best Bet Perfectly Good (Kilmore Race 6 No. 12) Drawn to perfection and a lot to like about the last start win when backed off the map and winning with ease. Was a real eye catcher and a good thing beaten the start prior and form lines

Key Comments A small 7 race card takes place. Expecting Andrew Mallyon to be the jockey to follow as he rides mostly favourites for the card. Expecting all runners to have their chance on this track. Best Bet Written Fame (Murwillumbah Race 6 No. 5) Written Fame is a consistent runner who is yet to miss the top 4 this prep. This 4yo Gelding is 2/3 on this track and has won fourth up in the past. The only niggle is its record

Key Comments The track is in the good range. The best bet looks very hard to beat with Andrew Gibbons aboard and has been subject to some very strong early market support. Best Bet Calga Power (Tamworth Race 2 No. 9) Strong effort on debut when running a commendable fourth and should get every hope from the solid draw in this. Maps for a tidy run, Gibbons sticks, drops in grade and looks very hard to beat as the market suggests. Check odds

Key Comments On pace runners should be suited. The track is in the good range. The best bet mixes its form but should really appreciate a decent drop in grade and can return to its winning ways. Best Bet Cyclone Harmony (Bairnsdale Race 7 No. 2) Keen on the chances of Cyclone Harmony who is the class runner of the race and capable of a strong run when things fall into place for it. Barrier 6 should ensure a good run and both
