Here’s our Big 6 Horse Racing Tips for Saturday Aug 18
Caulfield
R2 #3 RILLITO
“Had 3 good runs since returning from long break. Terrific win two runs ago here ovder 12300m, Then had no luck last start over same trip. Have five week break and back 1100m don’t look negatives.”

R6 #1 SUNLIGHT
“Gold Coast Magic Millions winner SUNLIGHT (1) resumed in SA last time out, she was belted by the older Nature Strip in what was billed as a match race, but he is a star. Back against her own sex here under the set weights and penalty conditions, she looks a good thing. She has great speed and the right draw, she will be on the pace for a long way.”

R8 #3 OSBORNE BULLS
“Resumes. Convinced he is a G1 winner in waiting. Has G1 closing speed. Loved his trial in Sydney running on under a hold. Unbeaten fresh. May have won all ten runs with more luck??”

Randwick
R4 #3 OOHOOD
“The best maiden in Australia. Last two starts before break were excellent at G1 level going down narrowly in both. Good fresh and over this trip. Looks hard to beat.”

Morphettville
R6 #8 ITS TIME FOR MAGIC
“Will Clarken has a great record improving runners when they join his Stable and expect this recently acquired ex-Sydney sider to be no exception. Had absolutely no luck second-up when seemingly bolting, camped right on leaders backs, before losing all momentum when badly held-up, eventually running seventh beaten 4.1L. Put the writing on the wall that she was a horse to follow when runner-up at first South Australia start, in what has now become a good form race (four subsequent winners!). On-pace type that maps ideally, settling up handy on what just appears an even tempo, senior rider jumps back aboard whilst has also since trialled nicely. Blinkers go on for first…best gamble at the most generous $6 on offer!”

Belmont
R7 #9 OLIVER’S TRAVELS
“Really loved the trial of OLIVER’S TRAVELS recently. It was beaten by PROFIT STREET but was barely tested in the run home. It has won 2 of 3 when first up & 2 from 3 at Belmont. A wet track holds no fears & Pike jumps on for the first time. It looks to be flying & we’re expecting it to be powering home late.”
