Our Launceston Racing Tips for Wednesdays meeting.
Take The Sit (Launceston Race 3 No. 2)
This four-year-old mare has three wins and two places from nine starts. She resumed from a 15 week spell to finish 2 lengths 2nd over 1200m at Hobart on 7 February, then she finished best out wide for a length win in the Magic Millions 3YO & 4YO race over 1400m at Launceston on 21 February. Her last race suggests the extra distance will suit, and she can make it back-to-back wins.

Each Way
Skilendra (Launceston Race 5 No. 9):
This five-year-old Skilled mare has had six starts for three places and has never finished further back than 5th. She was wide with no cover early before chasing hard for 3.35 lengths 4th over 1400m on 25 November, then she came from well back for 0.75, 0.4 lengths 3rd over 1400m at Launceston on 9 December. Resuming from a 12 week let-up she gets the winkers on for the first time and looks well worth an each-way bet in this mid-week maiden.

Horse Racing Tips: VIC Tuesday 17th September 2024
Key Comments The track is in the soft range. Focusing on runners that are on speed as that is how the track typically plays. The best bet was narrowly denied last start and can notch up another career win in a very suitable race. Best Bet Privacy Tour (Wodonga Race 6 No. 6) Narrowly denied last run and the form has stood up since. While this is a rise in grade, on paper this race is no harder. Egan takes over and drops

Key Comments 7 race card takes place. The best bet comes up in the first and has been subject to plenty of market support and should take beating off the back of a strong run fresh. Best Bet Tycoon Jenny (Corowa Race 7 No. 1) She has been hard to catch lately but form has been back on track and ticks all the boxes for this. Her best is good enough, maps for a good run and is in okay at the weights

Key Comments Racing on a soft track. The best bet comes up later on in the day and should appreciate the drop in grade. It is still looming around healthy odds at time of typing. Best Bet Great Siege (Tamworth Race 6 No. 5) Well placed to be taking this out. Has to lump the weight but drops back in grade off a commendable return on the back of a freshen up. Has won on this track and looks well placed in this

Key Comments Expecting on pace runners to be suited on this track. Running on an expected heavy deck so looking towards runners that will handle the conditions. Best Bet Three Grand (Hamilton Race 8 No. 10) Tricky card to sort with plenty of chances. Three Grand has been around the mark this prep. Unknown on a heavy deck but proven down to soft footing, Allen hops back aboard and he is 1/1 when steering. Check odds on SmartB Analyst: Bryce Parker
