Our Launceston Racing Tips for Wednesday’s meeting.
Sh’bourne Rebel (Launceston Race 8 No. 2)
Sh’bourne Rebel steps up in distance after winning his last two starts at this track. The seven-year-old drove hard to the line for a 0.5 length win over 1400m at Launceston on 20 February, then got up in the final 50m for a 0.2 length win over 1420m at Launceston on 9 March. The extra distance should suit, he goes well on soft going and loves this track. Should win.

Each Way
Lady Joker (Launceston Race 5 No. 7):
This five-year-old mare is a good each-way chance here. She was outgunned to the line when 1.3 lengths 4th over 1200m at Launceston on 20 February, then ran on from the top of the straight to just get there with a 0.1 length win over 1120m at Launceston on 9 March. Has a good record at this track and distance and is a solid each-way chance.

Best Lay
Iris West (Launceston Race 6 No. 7):
This four-year-old Magnus mare has three wins and three places from 19 starts and is the early favourite in this BM 62 Handicap over 1400m. She ran down the leader in the shadows of the post for a 0.5 length win over 1200m at Launceston on 20 February, then closed strongly in the final 100m for 0.6 length 3rd over 1220m at Launceston on 9 March. Gets a 3kg claim but others offer better value.

Horse Racing Tips: SA Saturday 18th May 2024
Key Comments There are 9 races on the Parks circuit. The track is rated good and the rail is +3 metres from the 1000m -to the winning post and true for the remainder. Best Bet Easy Campese (Morphettville Race 3 No. 4) Easy Campese has been runner-up at his last 3 races and is ready to win. With the 2kg claim for Alana Livesay he will only carry 52.5 kg down from 59kg last start and hopefully that will make all the difference.

Key Comments The rail is out 4 metres. The feature races include the Straight Six (race 7) and the Andrew Ramsden (race 8). The best bet looks well placed to bounce back and very hard to beat if finding its old form. Best Bet Niance (Flemington Race 3 No. 7) Had excuses last start when bungling the jump. Looks really hard to beat if finding its old form and there was so much to like about the wins prior. Looks way over the

Key Comments The rail is out 4 metres. The best bet comes up in the second race and is a very progressive type that can continue on its winning spree. Best Bet Affluential (Werribee Race 2 No. 4) Has been on a winning spree and showing no signs of slowing down. Should land in a beautiful spot from the draw and no reason to suggest it can't win again on the way to better races. Check odds on SmartB Analyst:

Key Comments The rail is true. Racing on the synthetic. The best bet comes up in the first and just needs even luck from the barrier to be winning. Best Bet Howgoodisvegas (Canberra Race 1 No. 1) 2 wins on the trot and both of them have been convincing. Should be able to slide forward from the wide draw and make It three in a row.
