Our Devonport Racing Tips for Wednesdays meeting.
Reite Den Blitz (Devonport Race 5 No. 3)
Resuming here after a 25 week spell this four-year-old Night Of Thunder mare goes well first-up. She placed in Melbourne at her last two starts where she chased solidly along the rails for 1.3 lengths 3rd over 1100m at Caulfield on 29 May, then finished 1.5 lengths 3rd over 1000m at Sandown on 14 July. Has a 3 kg claim here and looks the leading chance.

Each Way
Has The Look (Devonport Race 4 No. 7):
This four-year-old Toronado mare trained by Nigel Schuuring has one win and three places from 15 starts. She was closing hard between runners when she ran into a dead end and finished 1.6 lengths 4th over 1150m at Devonport on 3 December, then ran on out wide for 1.8 lengths 4th over 1430m at Hobart on 19 December. With two 4ths in a row she looks ready to run into the placings here.

Best Lay
Michbar (Devonport Race 6 No. 3):
This four-year-old Whittington gelding trained by Adam Trinder is the early favourite in this BM 68 handicap over 1150m. He was pipped at the post for 0.1 length 2nd over 1150m at Devonport on 3 December, then took a split for a 1.2 length win over 1150m at Devonport on 22 December. Will run his usual honest race but others offer better value.

Key Comments 2nd day of the Scone Carnival. Plenty of features including the Woodlands Stakes (race 3), Denise Joy Stakes (race 6), Ortensia Stakes (race 7), the Dark Jewel Classic (race 8) and Luskin Star Stakes (race 9). Best Bet Jedibeel (Scone Race 10 No. 8) Lovely return effort when being backed off the map and showed off a fine turn of foot. Can go right on with things here and should get a nice tow into it from barrier 7. Hard to

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.
Horse Racing Tips: VIC Saturday 18th May 2024
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:
