Best Bet
Belta Of A Song (Ascot Race 2 No. 8)
Belta Of A Song was very unlucky when finishing 0.1 length 2nd in a Class 1 over 1000m at Pinjarra last start. She comes back to maiden grade here and should be very hard to beast.

Each Way
Oceanzara (Ascot Race 6 No. 5)
Oceanzara is going really well this campaign with 2 wins from 6 starts. She ran 3rd over 1400m at Ascot last start, only just missing 2nd, and looks a good each-way chance again.

Horse Racing Tips: TAS Friday 18th April 2025
Key Comments The track is rated soft and the rail is +9 metres from the 1200m to the winning post and +7 metres for the remainder. As a general rule, runners who land in the front half of the field are suited at this track, with an advantage to those who find the inside lanes in the straight. Best Bet Sh'bourne Midnight (Launceston Race 6 No. 3) In great form and was a dominant winner at Hobart last start. Has drawn wide

Key Comments It's the traditional Easter meeting at Oakbank where the main feature is the Listed $140,000 Hills Railway Stakes over 1100 metres (race 8) but there are plenty of other great races. The track is rated as good and the rail is in the true position.See our runner-by-runner preview of the 2025 Hills Railway Stakes. Best Bet Sir Sway (Oakbank Race 8 No. 3) Won the Listed Manihi Classic over 1100m when resuming. He has a solid record over this distance
Horse Racing Tips: ACT Friday 18th April 2025
Key Comments A big 9 race card takes place. Expecting all runners to have their chance on this track. The best bet hasn't missed the top 3 in its past 3 starts. Best Bet Teylu (Canberra Race 9 No. 3) Handy race with the 7 being a big danger. Teylu hit the line hard last time out and the winner of the race looks a very smart type and has won again since. Drawn well and looks the clear one to beat
Horse Racing Tips: VIC Friday 18th April 2025
Key Comments The track is in the good range. The best bet has been having a very good prep and looks superbly weighted dropping down a few grades. Best Bet Bold Response (Cranbourne Race 5 No. 2) Maps well from the draw and should appreciate this drop in grade. Weighted well after the claim and looks nicely placed against this lot. Should come into good market support. Analyst: Bryce Parker Each Way
