Our Launceston Racing Tips for Wednesdays meeting.
The main races is the $100,000 Conquering Stakes (Race 7).
Street Tough (Launceston Race 1 No. 1)
This six-year-old gelding trained by Scott Brunton has six wins and eight places from 19 starts. He finished best out wide for a 0.5 length win over 1150m at Devonport Tapeta Synthetic on 13 September, then was held up into the straight before getting clear late and winding up for 0.3, 1 length 3rd in the Listed Newmarket Handicap over 1200m at Launceston on soft going on 25 November where he looked unlucky. He goes well at this track, drops in grade and should win.

Each Way
Shady Hustle (Launceston Race 7 No. 9):
This five-year-old Hussonet mare has had 19 starts for six wins and eight places, including five wins at this track. She came from last to finish 0.2 lengths 2nd over 1600m at Launceston on a soft track on 28 October, then charged late to just miss for 0.1 lengths 2nd over 1400m at Launceston on 21 November. She has been placed at her last four runs and is worth an each-way bet.

Best Lay
Sardegna Deel (Launceston Race 5 No. 8):
This four-year-old Dundeel mare is the early favourite in this maiden/class 1 over 2100m. She ground home for a length, length 3rd over 2100m at Launceston on 28 October, then took up the running then died on her run for 12.1 lengths 6th over 2100m at Hobart on 29 November. This is a similar race and she doesn’t offer value.

Horse Racing Tips: NSW Saturday 27th July 2024
Key Comments Very keen on the chances of the best bet who should relish getting off heavy ground and looks well placed racing back on its home track. Best Bet Zaragoza (Kembla Grange Race 7 No. 2) Surprised it isn't favourite. Enormous win 2 runs back beating a smart one on this track. Found the going too tough fresh but but bumped into a handy field including The Black Cloud who has won convincingly up in grade since. Tough draw but has the

Key Comments The feature is the $50,000 Metric Mile over 1600m (race 7). The track is sand and is rated good and the weather is fine. Best Bet Miss Polly (Darwin Race 1 No. 6) She came from the outside barrier to be runner-up on debut over 1200m here. Emma Lines rides again and has a 1.5 kg claim, and this time she has draw the rails. Hard to beat. Check odds on SmartB Analyst: Jo Jackson
