Canterbury Racing Tips
Race 4 – #THERACES HANDICAP (1250M)
Seahampton (14) – Well backed and didn’t handle the track first up at Warwick Farm. Fitter for that effort and back to a dry surface should see a much stronger effort today.
Empress Matilda (9) – First up effort was good on pace just tiring late. Fitter for that effort and was a winner at this track second up. Should be able to settle forward from the draw.
Zonk (1) – First up effort at Rosehill was solid on pace only claimed late then second up was slowly away in a forget run. Gets in well after the claim and third up record is very sound. Can win.
Divine Breeze (7) – First up today and fitter for two recent good trials. Won well when last first up at Gosford as a red hot favourite. Looks to have ability. Watch betting. Currently $10.
Race 5 – RANVET HANDICAP (1550M)
Foreign Territory (6) – Solid on debut at Gosford then a strong winner second up bolting in and enjoying the step up in trip. Drawn to roll forward from the gate. Hard to beat.
Impasse (9) – First up run was good on pace running second and going down narrowly. Fitter for that effort and was a winner last time second up. Expecting to be in the finish.
Deft (14) – Nice winner two starts back at Kembla Grange sitting wide then good again last start at Warwick Farm. Small query about 5th start in first preparation. However racing well.
Smart As (11) – On pacer who has ran well in his last two starts which were here. Will be looking to sit forward again from the draw and on the quick back up today. Currently $8.
Race 6 – BOWERMANS FURNITURE HANDICAP (1900M)
Tunero (13) – Well in the market in a harder race last start however did not handle the heavy track. Start prior was very good in a similar grade starting as favourite. Looks overs at the current price of $4.6.
Reneged (1) – Fitter for three runs back from a spell. Last start was a good second. Drops in grade today and gets in well after the 3kg claim. Peaks today for mine and has a class edge on these.
Balansa (11) – The last two runs have been excuses with over racing in both. The form prior was very good in weaker grades. If he can relax in the run I see no reason why he can’t be in the finish. Currently $15.
Nahuel (8) – Solid first up effort at Hawkesbury then walked in last start in a Newcastle maiden. Fitter and has upside. Stable is going well and expecting to be right in the finish. Watch betting. Currently $6.
Race 7 – TAB REWARDS HANDICAP (1250M)
Wander (5) – Started short priced favourite in all 4 career starts. Last start should have finished closer. Up in trip and down in weight suits and peaks in fitness today for mine. Hard to beat.
Magicus (6) – Been a while since tasting victory however last start was a very good second at Warwick Farm. Peaks today in fitness and drawn to get a good run.
Mad Fox (15) – Rarely runs a bad race. The two starts this preparation have been good running on well. Has started favourite in both. Drawn well and can be in the finish again today.
Sprinting To Win (9) – Good winner at Kembla Grange last start. This is harder however is fit and from strong stable. Reluctant to right off in this event. Currently $8.
