Canterbury racing tips
—
Four Candles has improved with every run, including a second placing at Ballarat last time out.
Coming to Sydney shouldn’t do his chances any harm, and the four-year-old gelding will only be fitter for recent racing.
Take the each-way odds in the opener.
Stake: 1 Unit
Looking to win on debut is Performance, who comes off back-to-back trial wins at Hawkesbury and Canterbury.
The three-year-old filly by Snitzel is bred to show early speed, and she’s another runner looking to use the inside draw to her advantage.
After opening at $9.50, strong bets have come her way.
Stake: 1 Unit
Money has come for Cassiel, who owns three wins and four placings from 11 starts, including a win at Canterbury.
The five-year-old son of Harry Angel ran fourth at Kembla Grange behind Spywire, who has since placed in a tough race at Wyong.
60.5kg is a big weight, but he’s good enough to carry it to victory.
Stake: 1 Unit
Punters get each-way odds for Pleasure Artist, who improved to run fourth at Rosehill last time out.
The four-year-old mare by Trapeze Artist is much better than a one-race winner and getting 3kg off hher back could be enough to see her winning form return.
There isn’t much over this field, so include her in picks.
Stake: 1 Unit
Gunning for back-to-back wins is Caffe Florian, who was too good for them at Canterbury two weeks ago.
The three-year-old filly by Snitzel scored by two lengths over Royal Air Force, so it could be a good form guide earlier on the card.
Punters should expect the odds to firm on race night.
Stake: 2 Units
Copacabana is a loose $4.60 favourite in an even field, and he should give punters a good sight.
The five-year-old son of Toronado looks to cap off consistent form, and he owns a win and nine placings from only 12 starts.
Getting in with only 54kg on his back should be enough to take him close.
Stake: 2 Units
Gunroom looks to fire a shot in the last race of the night, and he could bounce back from running sixth at Doomben.
The four-year-old should be better suited to this level of racing. He is a past winner at Canterbury, and he doesn’t often run a bad race.
3kg comes off his back to help with the big weight.
Stake: 1 Unit
