Geelong racing tips

Race 1. (11:40) Ladbrokes Form Genius Maiden (1150m)

#7 – Wise Inlaw @ $3.20

Money has come for Wise Inlaw, who ran fifth in a tough debut race at Caulfield, so improvement is expected from that effort.

The two-year-old son of Wootton Bassett was no match for the winner on that occasion, but the stable clearly thought highly of him.

Take the $3.20 odds before more money comes for him.

Stake: 2.5 Units

Race 2. (12:10) Betavet Maiden (1150m)

#1 – Bama Slama @ $4.80

Looking to win on debut is Bama Slama, who showed good pace to win a jumpout at Pakenham, which is often a good form guide.

The Hayes-trained gelding by Alabama Express is bred to show early speed, and that could be evident on Friday.

We expect the $4.80 odds to shorten to around $4 on race day.

Stake: 1 Unit

Race 3. (12:50) Geelong Cup Audi Centre Maiden (1250m)

#9 – Bingi @ $4.20

Another debutant with plenty of upside is Bingi, who comes off some jumpout placings at Pakenham, and it looks ready to go.

The two-year-old colt by Snitzel is bred to be better than average and getting a strong rider with Ben Melham in the saddle helps.

We’re happy to include him in picks at the odds.

Stake: 1 Unit

Race 4. (13:30) Geelong Legacy Centenary Maiden (1550m)

#5 – Ten Warriors @ $2.10

Ten Warriors owns four placings from six starts, and it’s about time he showed up and scored a win.

The four-year-old son of Saxon Warrior gets all favours from an inside draw, so we’re not surprised by the shortening odds.

Include him in multis before the odds firm even shorter.

Stake: 2.5 Units

Race 5. (14:10) Ladbrokes Form Genius Maiden (1770m)

#3 – First Infantry @ $3.70

Looking to cap off consecutive placings is First Infantry, who scored both placings at Geelong.

The three-year-old son of Omaha Beach gets a few gear changes for this race, which are important, and they could make the difference.

Take the odds as a value price in an even contest.

Stake: 1.5 Units

Race 6. (14:50) Jack Rabbit Stay and Play C1 (1150m)

#6 – Playlist @ $1.95

The odds are short for Playlist, but we’re not surprised given her debut win at Kyneton.

The three-year-old daughter of Pride of Dubai won by 1.3 lengths as a $1.50 chance before running behind Grinzinger Pod at Caulfield.

He drops in class for this race, and it should result in a win.

Stake: 3 Units

Race 7. (15:30) Shamus Award at Rosemont Stud BM64 (1250m)

#2 – Spirited Defence @ $4.00

We backed Spirit Defence to win at skinny odds last start, and although he finished second, we’re happy to stick with him.

The four-year-old owns two wins and two placings from six starts, and punters don’t often get each-way odds for this runner.

Given the price, we’re happy to include him in our horse racing picks.

Stake: 1 Unit

Race 8. (16:10) A.G. Haines Builders BM64 (1550m)

#5 – Tournelle @ $4.60

Tournelle looks to go one better than last time out when finishing second at Bendigo in heavy conditions.

The Freedman-trained mare is getting close to posting an overdue win, and this is the right level of opposition for her.

We’re happy with the each-way odds available from bookies.

Stake: 1 Unit

Race 9. (16:50) Geelong Cup Furphy Lawn Party BM64 (1450m)

#3 – Tasman Park @ $11.00

Punters get value odds for Tasman Park, who has yet to finish worse than second from three second-up starts.

The six-year-old gelding by Ocean Park also finished second at his only start at Geelong and in two starts over the distance.

Those stats read well, which make the odds more attractive.

Stake: 1 Unit
