Our Launceston Racing Tips for Wednesdays meeting.
The feature races are the $250,000 Launceston Cup (race 8), the Vamos Stakes (race 9) and the Mowbray Stakes(race 7).
War Correspondent (Launceston Race 5 No. 1)
This Time For War gelding looks well-placed in this 3YO Classic with three wins and four places from his seven starts. He was far too good for the rest when he won a 3YO Cup by 2.75 lengths over 1200m at Launceston on 21 November, then after a 10 week break he did best for a o.2 length win over 1100m at Hobart on 5 February. Should win again here.

Each Way
Gee Gee Lanett (Launceston Race 6 No. 7):
This six-year-old mare has had 49 starts for 11 wins and 23 places. She finished 1.75 lengths 2nd over 1100m at Launceston on 20 January, then led narrowly but was outsprinted in the run to the line when 1, 0.5 lengths 3rd over 1100m at Hobart on 5 February. She is never far away and with four of her wins over this track and distance she is a good each-way bet.

Best Lay
I’m A Floozy (Launceston Race 3 No. 8):
This four-year-old Toorak Toff mare is the early favourite in this Class 1 handicap over 1200m. She finished 1.25 lengths 4th over 1220m at Launceston on 16 January, then died on her run when 7.6 lengths 6th over 1100m at Hobart on 24 January. I feel she should be going back in distance and not up, and she appears to be a false favourite.

Horse Racing Tips: NSW Saturday 20th April 2024
Key Comments 8 race card on a good 4 track. The best bet is in the first and looks placed to win off the back of a sound return off a long break. Best Bet Media World (Kembla Grange Race 1 No. 3) This 2yo Colt was sound first up without much luck and looks set for better races than this. Can get the dream run from barrier 1 and break maiden in what is a handy field. Check odds on SmartB

Key Comments The rail is in 3 metres and the track is heavy. Just 6 races on the small card and the best bet is in the first. Best Bet Grand Horizon (Taree Race 1 No. 3) Gets barrier 1 and this 4yo Mare boasts 2 placings on the track and looks nicely placed against this bunch. Set to peak and looks primed to get another win and should do no work from the draw. Hard to beat. Check odds on SmartB
Horse Racing Tips: VIC Saturday 20th April 2024
Key Comments The rail is true. The best bet comes up in race 3 and only needs a pinch of luck from the barrier to be breaking maiden. Best Bet Beautiful View (Horsham Race 3 No. 1) Needs luck from out there but has been around the mark all this prep and Fry is an ideal booking. Does find the right race here and still looms at backable odds. Check odds on SmartB Analyst: Bryce Parker Each

Key Comments The rail is true. The best bet comes up in the last. Best Bet Mishare (Seymour Race 8 No. 6) Likeable return when running 3rd in a race no harder than this. The kind draw and ideal map makes for appeal and there has been good support come race day.
