Island Surprise (Happy Valley Race 4 No.12)

Landed with Island Surprise here who is rising up from Class 4 following two consistent displays in Class 5. First up with Purton aboard he ran a close second to Fortune Hero in a race that has produced 3 winners and 7 placings since, before again running a tight third to Sunny and Gold and Hearty Wish, another race that has produced 1 winner and 3 placings. He had an excuse last start as he did race tight for room and was galloped on around the 950m mark. He has raced in Class 4 before and hasn’t been far away plus he gets a good draw, maps well, and gets the in-form Silvestre De Sousa due to the 8kg weight drop. De Sousa is 4/13 (30%) when riding at 53kg or below, which is tremendous. I think he will be around the finish again all in all and we are getting a reasonable price for it.

Current Price: $5.50

Best Each Way

Seizing The Moment (Happy Valley Race 7 No.10)

I think this is a really good bet to start the treble races and he is my value bet of the night. His first-up run was immaculate considering he began only fairly and was pushed along early and looked to have had the race in his hands when he was cut out around the 200m mark before really hitting his straps late. I concede that 1000m isn’t his pet distance but he faces a suitable race here which should provide plenty of speed for him to camp off. He does go up to Class 2, which I think he is ready for now and the draw is perfect for him. I am a touch concerned that Borges is off him here but nonetheless he will have a nice run with no weight on his back and should be a real live chance towards the end of this race.

Horse Racing Tips : NSW Friday 8th March 2024

Our Newcastle tips for Friday's meeting. Key Comments The feature race includes the Newcastle Stakes (race 7). The best bet is in the feature and comes up at a big price fresh from a good draw. Best Bet Zeyrek (Newcastle Race 7 No. 1) Boasts form around Atishu, Fangirl, Montefilia, Think It Over and Pericles last prep. All of those runs better credentials than the rest of this field. A recent trial was a brilliant piece of work, Collett is 1/1 aboard and

Our Pakenham Tips for Thursday's meeting. Key Comments The rail is out 9 metres for the night meeting. The best bet almost got the job done for us a fortnight ago and sticking thick here. Best Bet Thinking Rain (Pakenham Race 8 No. 9) Class of the race that maps for every hope from the draw and looks well placed in this field.  1/1 on this track and has been subject to good early support. This race is well within reach. $3.70

Horse Racing Tips : NSW Thursday 7th March 2024

Our Grafton Tips for Thursday's meeting. Key Comments The track is in the soft range and the rail is true. The best bet looks very well placed and hard to hold out coming off a strong second on debut. Best Bet Top Act (Grafton Race 3 No. 13) Bumped into one better on debut and this race is well within reach. Maps well from barrier 3 and looks suited to this field. Should prove hard to hold out against this lot and

Horse Racing Tips : WA Thursday 7th March 2024

Our Pinjarra Park Horse Racing Tips for Thursday's meeting. Key Comments There are 7 races and the rail is +4 metres the entire circuit. Best Bet Another Strike (Pinjarra Park Race 6 No. 2) He was a 1.3 length winner over 140m at Ascot last start after narrowly missing to be runner-up over 1300m at Pinjarra the start before. The way he ran on at the end suggests the rise in trip will suit. Leading hope. $2.25
