Our Mornington Horse Racing Tips for Saturday’s meeting.
Dom To Shoot (Mornington Race 6 No. 2)
Thought Dom To Shoot’s effort to finish fifth in the CS Hayes Stakes at Flemington two starts ago was very good. Prior to that he was Group 1 placed in the Kingstown Classic. Last start he disappointed in the Australian Guineas but that was in a much tougher contest than this. If he can find anywhere near his best then he will be winning here.

Chapada (Mornington Race 7 No. 2):
Chapada won the Herbert Power Stakes by 1.2 lengths in October, then was far from disgraced in the Caulfield Cup. He has had two runs back from a spell and was a nice effort when finishing third in the Australian Cup last start. He is set to peak here third up and is proven at the distance.

Mahashakti (Mornington Race 2 No. 8):
Mahashakti has come up as the early favourite in race two. She has won four in a row and is a promising horse for the future but is now deep into her first racing preparation. She is taking another huge step up in class here and looks short enough in early markets considering.

Key Comments There are 9 races including the Group 1 Doomben 10,000 (race 8). The track is soft and the rail is in the true position. Best Bet Angel Capital (Doomben Race 6 No. 5) Debuted for a 2.3 length win at Cranbourne where he came from last and wound up from the top of the straight to flash home down the outside. Jamie Kah sticks and he looks a lovely colt. Check odds on SmartB Analyst: Jo Jackson

Key Comments The main feature is the Group 3 $200,000 Belmont Sprint (race 8). The track is Good and the rail is in the true position. Best Bet Generosity (Belmont Race 5 No. 2) She has had 2 placings this campaign where she’s made a big run from well back in the field. The extra distance will suit and she has won at Belmont before . Top pick. Check odds on SmartB Analyst: Jo Jackson Each Way

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.
